Monaco – Sprint: Noel León wins, favorites in the top 10
© Eric Alonso / DPPIStarting from first place, Mexican Noel León eliminated any suspense by winning the F2 Sprint. A relatively calm race, it didn't produce a great spectacle.
Having already won the sprint race in Montreal last week, Noel León remained composed. Leading the race once again, in much calmer conditions than those in Canada, the Mexican driver triumphed this Saturday afternoon ahead of Roman Bilinski and Gabriele Mini. After 30 laps of a clean race, marked by no collisions or controversial accidents, León maintained his lead, while the Italian Mini retains his championship advantage after this latest round.
Despite the three-place grid penalty he received yesterday after qualifying, Joshua Dürksen managed to climb to fourth place, just ahead of Dino Beganovic and Martinius Stenshorne, among the championship leaders. Speaking of the leaders, several drivers symbolically scored points on Saturday. Rafael Câmara, in particular, gained two places to finish in eighth position, just ahead of his two rivals, Alexander Dunne and Nikola Tsolov. These three will face off again on Sunday in the feature race, starting from the top three positions on the grid.
Although there were no major accidents or red flags, unlike the F3However, we should note Oliver Goethe's retirement mid-race. The German also saw his teammate – Tasanapol Inthrapuvasak – finish the race three laps behind the leaders. Now, the main race, the final event of the weekend, will take place... F2, will be available to follow from 9:30 am (French time) this Sunday.
