Jack Crawford has won the main race of the Formula 2 championship held in Barcelona. The young American driver clinched his first victory in the F2 series, showcasing his exceptional driving skills. This win solidifies his position as a promising rising star in the world of motorsport.
Finishing in second place was Franco Colapinto from MP Motorsport, delivering a strong performance throughout the race. Colapinto consistently displayed his speed and resilience, earning him a well-deserved podium finish.
One of the most remarkable moments of the race was Juan Manuel Correa's return to the podium. Correa, who suffered severe injuries in a crash in Belgium back in 2019, demonstrated his determination and skill by securing third place. This achievement marks a significant milestone in his recovery and comeback in the F2 series.
Although Correa had initially finished third in the previous sprint race, he was later penalized and dropped to eighth place. Nevertheless, his performance in the main race allowed him to reclaim his well-deserved place on the podium.
The starting position was crucial, and Paul Aron from Hitech claimed pole position. However, an unfortunate event on the gravel caused him to drop to fourth place. Aron's display of talent and potential remains undeniable, and he continues to lead the championship standings with 100 points.
The race was not without incidents, as Victor Martins from ART and Dennis Hauger from MP Motorsport both retired after encountering difficulties on the track. This forced the introduction of the safety car. Additionally, technical problems forced Alessandro Antonelli to start from the pit lane, resulting in a 12th-place finish for the Italian driver.
Currently, Paul Aron maintains his lead in the championship with 100 points. He is followed by a group of talented drivers, including the runner-up from Rodin (73 points), Jack Crawford (62 points), and the leader from Invictus, Gabriel Bortoleto (60 points).
Jack Crawford emerged as the winner in the Formula 2 race in Barcelona, securing his first victory in the series. It was a historic moment for Juan Manuel Correa, who earned his first podium since his accident in 2019. Paul Aron continues to lead the championship standings.
