PREMA Racing ended the FIA Formula 2 Feature race at Spa-Francorchamps with a points finish today as Andrea Kimi Antonelli finished ninth on the Belgian circuit.

Antonelli started from row 3 with Prime tyres and maximized his position in the long initial stint. Unfortunately, with some pace lacking and a slightly slower pit-stop compared to usual, he could not stay into the top-5. Still, he recovered up to P9 in the final lap to secure two points.

On the other hand, Ollie Bearman was forced to retire immediately after the start due to contact.

“Very sad to finish the race like that. It was a short one. I made a good start but misjudged it a bit in turn 1 and unfortunately, we came together. Sorry to everyone, and of course to the team as well because I think we could have done a good race, I was feeling quite confident. Now let’s go into the summer break and try to reset for the second half of the year.”

“Feature race is done, a pretty difficult one. We just didn’t have the pace today. I think P9 was the most we could take away today. Now we go into the summer break, reset, and then come back to Monza.”
