As the support race to the Monaco Grand Prix, the drivers not only battle for crucial championship points but also aim to showcase their skills on a global stage.
The Formula 2 race in Monaco got off to a chaotic start. Dunne struggled from pole position, giving Martins a chance to attempt an outside pass at Sainte Devote. However, the French driver couldn’t complete the move as Dunne collided with the rear wheel of Martins’ DAMS car, causing both to crash into the barriers. 11 cars were eliminated after this crash.
Fornaroli makes important steps
The race restarted after the track was cleaned up by the marshals under a red flag with Leonardo Fornaroli emerging as the luckiest, making important steps for the championship as he led the restart of the race.
With 28 minutes to go Joshua Duerksen hit the barrier at Rascasse, causing a virtual safety car.
First feature race win for Crawford
7 minutes left and Fornaroli lost the lead of the race to Crawford, whilst Linblad remained in P3 on his road to his first podium in a main race until a 5 second penalty caused for him to drop down to P9 as Montoya steals his podium spot.
