Barcelona – Race 2: Cárdenas wins the last race of the season, Caranta climbs back to sixth place

As the lights went out, Andrés Cárdenas got off to a superb start. The Peruvian rookie immediately took the lead and led the race from start to finish, becoming the tenth and final winner of the 2025 Eurocup-3 season. The MP Motorsport driver nevertheless had to contend with the relentless pressure from his teammate and runner-up, Valerio Rinicella, who was determined to end the year with a victory.

Race 2 was quickly neutralized following an incident involving Adam Hideg and Alceu Feldmann, along with the retirement of Lorenzo Campos (MP Motorsport), likely due to a mechanical issue. At the restart, Rinicella launched a flurry of attacks, but Cárdenas maintained a solid lead and gave no quarter. A second neutralization then occurred, caused by Zack Scoular's off-track excursion after his suspension failed. In the closing laps, Kacper Sztuka briefly went off the track after a forceful maneuver by Jesse Carrasquedo, allowing him to secure third place on the podium. A great finish for the Mexican, who will now join the Formula 3 next year with the Dutch team Van Amersfoort Racing.

On the French side, Jules Caranta has not managed to secure a victory this season. The junior Red Bull He staged a remarkable comeback, climbing to sixth place. Thanks to this performance from the Frenchman, combined with Ernesto Rivera's eighth-place finish, Campos Racing maintains second place in the championship ahead of Griffin Core. Also noteworthy was the strong performance of Alexander Abkhazava, who secured an encouraging seventh-place finish just one day after his dramatic crash in Race 1 at Barcelona.
