FRECA – Third pole of the season for Dino Beganovic

He is definitely the man at the start of the season. Ultra-regular this year after not having been in 2021, the protégé of Ferrari Driver Academy took a third pole position on the Castellet circuit, a week after winning in the streets of the Principality. However, in Group A with the majority of his fiercest opponents, Dino put in a final high-flying lap to claim a particularly hotly contested pole position. 

Judge for yourself: in his group he was ahead of his teammate Paul Aron (Prema) by… 2 thousandths, as well as one of his biggest rivals for the title, the Italian Gabriele Mini (ART Grand Prix), by 51 thousandths. But it is with Gabriele Bortoleto (R-ace GP) that he will share the front row this Saturday afternoon for Race 1. The Brazilian was in fact the fastest in a perhaps more affordable Group B ( as a reminder, the groups are made up of drivers classified even and odd in the championship). 

On the French side, a week after also winning in Monaco, Hadrien David will start in 10th position. Owen Tangavelou (G4 Racing) will start in 15th position, Esteban Masson (FA Racing) in 17th and Sami Meguetounif (MP Motorsport) in 19th.
