F2: French Driver Hadjar Loses Championship Lead After Azerbaijan Race
F2 Championship Standings Change
In the recent Azerbaijan Grand Prix, French driver Isack Hadjar faced a significant setback, finishing in 14th place during the main race. This result cost him the lead in the F2 Championship, allowing Brazilian Gabriel Bortoleto to take the reins as the new championship leader.
Race Highlights
- Hadjar's position: 14th in the main race
- Bortoleto's rise: Now leading with 169.5 points
- Upcoming races: Two more races remaining in the season
Impact of the Race
The race was marred by a serious collision involving multiple cars, which resulted in a heavily shortened race duration. Thankfully, no injuries were reported from the incident. Hadjar, who is powered by the Red Bull Junior Team, also struggled in the sprint race, finishing 12th, leaving him with a total of only 165 points.
Meanwhile, fellow French driver Victor Martins performed notably better, securing a second-place finish, thereby maintaining his presence in the competitive landscape of F2. The next leg of the championship is scheduled to take place in Qatar from November 29 to December 1, offering both drivers a chance to regain momentum in their title pursuits.
