F1 ACADEMY – NINA GADEMAN WINS THE SEASON OPENER
The first race of the F1 Academy weekend delivered plenty of action. After 13 laps, Nina Gademan took victory ahead of Natalia Granada and Emma Felbermayr.
The start was difficult for Lisa Billard, who started from P3 and lost several positions in the opening meters. At the front, the two drivers on the front row maintained their advantage.
In the midfield, the gap remained extremely tight between Payton Wescott in fourth and Ella Lloyd in ninth, with several drivers separated by only a few tenths.
The race turned around halfway through when Alba Larsen attempted a move on Emma Felbermayr. The contact caused her to lose her front wing, forcing her to drop down the order. Race control deployed the safety car to clear the debris from the track.
After the restart, the battles resumed, with Lisa Billard defending from Ella Lloyd for seventh place. Up front, the fight for the podium continued between Rafaela Ferreira and Emma Felbermayr in the closing laps.
In the end, Nina Gademan pulled away to win the first race of the season. Natalia Granada finished second, while Emma Felbermayr completed the podium after her strong late-race battle.
