00:02:48This time round on the exit of turn 16
00:02:50They certainly will
00:02:52And Crawford has not broken DRS for Victor Martins
00:02:56It's 7 tenths of a second
00:02:57So as Alex said
00:02:58They will all get that DRS available
00:03:01And currently we will see pretty much all the drivers
00:03:04Having access to that
00:03:05When we make that run
00:03:07Down towards turn 22
00:03:10It's on the exit of turn 17
00:03:12Where the detection zone is
00:03:14Right, we watch Arvid Lindblad now
00:03:17And he's being chased down by Gabriele Mini
00:03:20Gabriele Mini in the pink Alpine livery
00:03:23Just behind him
00:03:24Richard Bershaw next along
00:03:25Bershaw doing well here
00:03:26Holding on on that medium compound tyre
00:03:29He'll be able to use the DRS now
00:03:30To keep him in the action
00:03:31And when the super soft runners peel off relatively early
00:03:35He's putting himself in a good position
00:03:37To have a nice clean clear stint
00:03:39And run the car all the way through to the end of the race
00:03:42It's all going to depend on if there is a safety car
00:03:45And if there is, where it falls
00:03:47In terms of the pit windows
00:03:49To which way this is going to play out
00:03:50But going nicely for Bershaw
00:03:52Using all of that experience
00:03:54Of his multiple seasons in the category
00:03:56Moves further down though, Chris
00:03:58Yep, Miata down the inside of Sebastian Montoya
00:04:01That is a battle for P13
00:04:04May have been defensive
00:04:05But Miata and Montoya
00:04:07What we do know for certain is they are battling over P13
00:04:10The Mumbai Falcons livery of Montoya
00:04:13Now moving to the inside
00:04:15He's not alone though
00:04:15He's got Cordille in the background
00:04:17Both on those super soft tyres
00:04:19And that's Montoya
00:04:20Now into 13th place
00:04:22Making his way up to Formula 2
00:04:23After a couple of seasons of Formula 3 racing
00:04:25It's a circuit that he's preferred
00:04:26To others that he's raced at the beginning of the year
00:04:30Montoya finding his way further up the field
00:04:33Let's have another look at the start then
00:04:35And it was a really nice launch from Jack Crawford
00:04:37Using the grip on that right-hand side of the road
00:04:40And look how strung out those first three yards
00:04:42Because Fornaroli didn't actually get away that well
00:04:45Dirksen is the AIX
00:04:47The green and gold car
00:04:50Making his way up the inside
00:04:52We're going to follow then
00:04:53Down towards Turn 4
00:04:55Marty tries to make the move around the outside of the papaya
00:04:58Liveried car of Dunn
00:04:59Dunn sees him off
00:05:00And then grabs a position from his team mate
00:05:02For good measure
00:05:03Through the exit of Turn 5
00:05:04This is how we're doing
00:05:06You're checking the property mate
00:05:07Good job mate
00:05:08Great stuff from Roman Stanek
00:05:12Right let's watch this on board from Pepe Marty
00:05:15Yeah strung out out front
00:05:16We've actually got a better launch than Dunn
00:05:18That's the difference in terms of traction
00:05:20Relatively conservative on the brakes
00:05:23Enter stage left
00:05:24The McLaren Junior
00:05:26I'm going to have to give him a bit of room
00:05:28On the left-hand side
00:05:29Now we're going to run side by side
00:05:30There's our team mate Arvid Lindblad
00:05:32Up ahead trying to make the move around the outside
00:05:34Joshua Dirksen was the car we picked out
00:05:36Making a move up the inside of Turn 1
00:05:39And he's going to be braver on the brakes
00:05:40In his medium compound tyre
00:05:42And find a lovely little gap there
00:05:44Has to climb the kerb a bit
00:05:45But then uses the grip from the pit exit there
00:05:48To send it off down the straight
00:05:49Behind Sebastian Montoya
00:05:50Very good driving
00:05:51From Joshua Dirksen
00:05:53And a clean start
00:05:53All the way through
00:05:54Good respectful racing
00:05:56And Luke Browning says hello
00:05:57To Leo Fornaroli there in fourth place
00:06:00In the mirrors
00:06:01As we are getting closer
00:06:03To pit stops being made here
00:06:05Lap four we are on
00:06:07When we get to the end of six
00:06:08We will see those being able to be made
00:06:12Battle is developing
00:06:14Between Lindblad and Mini here
00:06:16Alex
00:06:16Magic moment
00:06:17At the front of the field
00:06:18Crawford has cleared the DRS
00:06:21From Victor Martins
00:06:22Victor Martins right on the limit
00:06:24Of making that jump away from Fornaroli
00:06:26So it'll be Martins who's under pressure
00:06:27Now look
00:06:28The interval on the left hand side
00:06:30He's just done it
00:06:31Fornaroli away from Martins
00:06:33So there we go
00:06:34Strung out out front
00:06:35It'll now be Fornaroli
00:06:36Who's under pressure
00:06:36From the Williams Junior
00:06:37Browning as we get into the DRS next time
00:06:40And Vashor as you mentioned
00:06:41Is hanging on to this battle as well
00:06:43But this is a key moment in the race
00:06:45As Alex said
00:06:46Crawford has broken DRS
00:06:481.3 seconds clear
00:06:50This is the battle
00:06:51Between Mini and Lindblad
00:06:53We are watching
00:06:54And Vashor is hanging on to them
00:06:56Very well
00:06:57Stanek is with him as well
00:06:58Having made a good start to this race
00:07:00He's made three places
00:07:01He was given a three place grid drop
00:07:03For impeding Dunn
00:07:05Which drops him from 10th to 13th
00:07:06And he's made those places back quickly
00:07:08Whoa
00:07:09Lock up there for Fornaroli
00:07:10I'm also not seeing the DRS open
00:07:12It was enabled then disabled
00:07:14Then enabled again
00:07:16And let's see if Luke Browning
00:07:18Is able to take some speed out of Fornaroli
00:07:20In the way that we would expect
00:07:21In this final DRS zone in the lap
00:07:23I don't think they've got DRS out there at the moment
00:07:26I think the field are racing without that system
00:07:29We'll watch the rear wings intensely
00:07:31As we come down the front straight here
00:07:35Let's see if anybody picks up DRS
00:07:37Fornaroli won't
00:07:38He's too far away from Victor Martins
00:07:40But we should see Luke Browning close on Fornaroli
00:07:42And no
00:07:44It's not
00:07:44His rear flap was not open there
00:07:47So
00:07:48That's a good spot
00:07:50I do not
00:07:51I think you might be right in your suggestions there
00:07:53As you said
00:07:54It's been enabled
00:07:55Disabled
00:07:56Now enabled again
00:07:57And we may be without that for the time being
00:08:00So there were several drivers picked up at the beginning of the race yesterday
00:08:03For using DRS when they shouldn't
00:08:05But it shouldn't be available at any other time
00:08:09When the drivers are allowed to use it
00:08:11So I wonder if we're having some technical issues with the DRS system
00:08:14In any case
00:08:15Jack Crawford moving away from Victor Martins
00:08:18And Fornaroli falling away from Victor Martins as well
00:08:21So those top three cars would not be affected by that
00:08:24Fornaroli in third place
00:08:27That will be to his advantage
00:08:30Browning in fourth
00:08:31This is Stanek doing a good job in P10
00:08:35As we ride on board now with Luke Browning
00:08:38Just trying to pile the pressure here on Leo Fornaroli
00:08:41Hasn't been able to make this move as of yet
00:08:44But trying to force Fornaroli into a mistake here
00:08:49Yeah, moving towards the pit stop phase as well
00:08:51For all of these drivers out front
00:08:54Reminder for you
00:08:55Richard Bershaw in ninth place MP
00:08:56The leading car at the moment
00:08:58On the alternative strategy
00:09:00And they're a gaggle of cars
00:09:01On the alternative strategy
00:09:03And Fornaroli's wide
00:09:04Through the mid corner of 22
00:09:05Yeah, lock up for Fornaroli
00:09:07Albeit this time he went wide and over the kerb
00:09:10And now he's under all kinds of pressure
00:09:12Into turn 27
00:09:14Browning right there behind him
00:09:16But chooses not to make his move
00:09:18Into 27
00:09:19Out of the corner we go
00:09:21And Browning could have a chance into turn one here Alex
00:09:23He's going to have the grip
00:09:24He's going to have the toe
00:09:25But the other thing he has
00:09:26Is Alex Dunn right underneath his gearbox
00:09:28And now he's got the DRS
00:09:30And he's going to head round the outside
00:09:31And Browning now goes down the outside
00:09:34And says thank you very much
00:09:35Mistake from Fornaroli
00:09:37Good pressure driving
00:09:38And now Dunn is going to go down the inside there
00:09:40Of Fornaroli
00:09:41A costly mistake for Fornaroli
00:09:43Made at turn 22
00:09:45And he's now lost two places
00:09:46Yeah, Dunn and Fornaroli
00:09:48Battle their way then down to four
00:09:49But it's very difficult
00:09:50Not a big enough braking zone
00:09:51To get back up the inside
00:09:53And Dunn is going to demote the Formula 3 champion
00:09:56Back down the order to fifth place
00:09:59Alex Dunn looking like he had decent pace yesterday
00:10:02Decent pace again today
00:10:03Coming off the back of his first feature race win
00:10:06In Bahrain
00:10:07The road in driving
00:10:08Looking at a good result again here
00:10:09This was the move then
00:10:12I believe this is going to be the moment
00:10:13Into turn 22 Alex
00:10:15Fornaroli just locks up that front tyre
00:10:18Doesn't he on the way in
00:10:19Obscured by the building there
00:10:20But that's what causes it
00:10:21And it's only a tiny bit wide
00:10:23Luke Browning doesn't quite
00:10:25Have the run down to 27
00:10:27Then takes the DRS
00:10:28Down towards the first time
00:10:30And this DRS zone
00:10:32On the front straight here
00:10:34Has been super powerful all weekend
00:10:36It has
00:10:37And that is why Browning
00:10:38Waited
00:10:39Through 27
00:10:40And then made his move
00:10:42Into that corner
00:10:44And used the benefit of the DRS
00:10:46To do so
00:10:47Good move by Dunn
00:10:48Yeah
00:10:49Launches the inside
00:10:50Fornaroli did well actually
00:10:52To see him coming
00:10:53And then thinks he's going to have
00:10:53The cutback through the exit
00:10:55Does manage to get side by side
00:10:56With Dunn
00:10:56But there's a lovely
00:10:57Grippy traction patch
00:10:59On the outside there
00:11:00Where the Formula 1 cars
00:11:01Have been laying rubber down
00:11:02That's allowed Dunn to get away
00:11:04Fornaroli is struggling now
00:11:05He is losing more positions
00:11:08Gabriele Mini
00:11:09Is looking to go through
00:11:11Oh no this is Stanek
00:11:12Sorry Stanek side by side
00:11:13With Miney
00:11:14His teammate
00:11:15Of course
00:11:16Fornaroli's teammate
00:11:17And now that is Mini
00:11:19Running wide
00:11:19And he's going to lose a place
00:11:21To Miney
00:11:22And he's going to nip
00:11:22Into pit lane
00:11:23So here we go
00:11:24We are seeing the first
00:11:25Of the pit stops
00:11:26At the end of lap 6
00:11:27Yeah we are
00:11:28Marti in as well
00:11:29So several cars
00:11:31In the pit stop
00:11:31We've got Mini
00:11:32We've got Marti
00:11:33But they're keeping
00:11:34This super soft tyre
00:11:35Perhaps longer in some instances
00:11:37Than we expected
00:11:38This flurry of pit stops
00:11:40Will eventually release
00:11:42Richard for sure
00:11:42Looked like a slightly
00:11:43Slow left rear there
00:11:44For Fornaroli
00:11:46But he gets out
00:11:46Okay not quite that slow though
00:11:48It's a nasty pit stop
00:11:49For Campos
00:11:50With Pepe Marti
00:11:51Pepe Marti
00:11:52Slow in the stop there
00:11:54Just there
00:11:54At the Prima team
00:11:55Releasing Gabriele Mini
00:11:57Here comes Rotomo Miata
00:11:58So first stops
00:12:00Being completed
00:12:01And Pepe Marti
00:12:03Not the best of runs
00:12:04Through pit lane
00:12:05There comes Gabriele Mini
00:12:06Back out
00:12:07Was in that battle
00:12:09So I think
00:12:10Doing the right thing there
00:12:11Just to get himself
00:12:12Out of that Alex
00:12:12Yeah so it looks like
00:12:13About a 30 second loss
00:12:15Plus the tax
00:12:16Of having to get
00:12:16This medium compound tyre
00:12:18Up and running
00:12:19This is the moment then
00:12:21That we saw
00:12:22The two Alpine juniors
00:12:23That's Miney
00:12:24Taking one place
00:12:25Then he takes a second
00:12:26Through the exit
00:12:27With Mini running wide
00:12:29Mini was just
00:12:30Trying to find a gap
00:12:31Oh no
00:12:31And that's a Van Amma sport
00:12:33That looks like
00:12:34John Bennett
00:12:35Who has picked up
00:12:36Front wing damage
00:12:37And he is going to
00:12:38Come in
00:12:39And get that changed
00:12:40And
00:12:41A lot of debris
00:12:42On the road there though
00:12:43And I do wonder
00:12:44If the drivers
00:12:45Who stayed out
00:12:46For one lap
00:12:47On this super soft tyre
00:12:49Are about to be rewarded
00:12:50No they're coming
00:12:50Through this time
00:12:51So that
00:12:53That
00:12:54Debris
00:12:55On the start
00:12:55Finish straight
00:12:56Has not yet
00:12:57Caused a stoppage
00:12:58And they're going
00:12:59To stay out now
00:13:00Surely
00:13:00Just in case it does
00:13:02No Martins
00:13:02Has come directly
00:13:03Into the box
00:13:05But it is Crawford
00:13:06Oh no it's Crawford
00:13:07Has come into the box
00:13:08Martins has made
00:13:08His way through
00:13:09So Crawford
00:13:10Deciding to jump
00:13:11Yep so race leader
00:13:12Is in
00:13:13Had to take avoiding
00:13:14Action though
00:13:15On the way in
00:13:15Didn't he
00:13:16Jack Crawford
00:13:16Is now in
00:13:17He has got rid
00:13:18Of those super soft tyres
00:13:19And race leader
00:13:20In to put the medium tyre
00:13:22On
00:13:22So Jack Crawford
00:13:23In
00:13:23Browning in
00:13:24Dunn in
00:13:25Lindblad in
00:13:26This is a key point
00:13:27Of this race
00:13:27Victor Martins
00:13:28Staying out
00:13:30And this is now
00:13:31A very important lap
00:13:32For him
00:13:32Victor Martins
00:13:33It's incredibly important
00:13:34Lap for Victor Martins
00:13:35And it's interesting
00:13:36To see what now
00:13:37Race control will do
00:13:38Because if they
00:13:39If they throw a
00:13:40Virtual safety car
00:13:41Martins will not
00:13:42Then be able to pit
00:13:43Those are the rules
00:13:44In Formula 2
00:13:44If it's a full safety car
00:13:46It'll be a much
00:13:47Cheaper pit stop
00:13:48For Martins
00:13:48So let's see
00:13:49How that works out
00:13:50Let's see
00:13:51Well we'll watch
00:13:52Martins
00:13:53He hasn't done
00:13:54On their personal best
00:13:55But we wouldn't expect
00:13:56That to happen
00:13:57On this stage
00:13:58At these tyres
00:13:58Of course
00:13:59When you come out
00:14:00Of the pit lane
00:14:00Alex
00:14:01On these tyres
00:14:01No tyre warmers
00:14:02It's trying to get them
00:14:03Up to speed
00:14:03Around this circuit
00:14:04Yeah that's the Formula 2 tax
00:14:06Of getting the tyre
00:14:06Up to speed
00:14:08And that's why we see
00:14:09Drivers come out ahead
00:14:10But then lose out
00:14:11Later
00:14:12In that early lap
00:14:13These critical laps
00:14:14For all those drivers
00:14:15Bringing the medium in
00:14:16And you can see Crawford
00:14:17There weaving
00:14:18Trying desperately
00:14:19To take the tyre temperature
00:14:20This is not
00:14:21A high abrasion surface
00:14:22And so it won't
00:14:24Give them energy
00:14:24Straight away
00:14:25Round turn 13
00:14:28Here is the onboard
00:14:29This is Victor Martins
00:14:30Going down to the final corner
00:14:32On what is a very important lap
00:14:33Yeah so
00:14:34The circuit has stayed green
00:14:36Victor Martins
00:14:38Has stayed out
00:14:39Richard for sure
00:14:40Will be a lot longer yet
00:14:41He's on the medium compound
00:14:43So let's see
00:14:44If Martins chooses
00:14:45To jump
00:14:46Into the pit
00:14:47This time
00:14:47Looks like Megatune
00:14:48Has had an issue
00:14:49In the pit lane there
00:14:51With fitting the left front tyre
00:14:53So to all intents and purposes
00:14:54Out of the race
00:14:55And Martins jumps
00:14:55For the pit road
00:14:56Here we come
00:14:57Victor Martins is in
00:14:59So he stayed out
00:15:00One more lap
00:15:00When Jack Crawford
00:15:01Came in
00:15:02So now it's about
00:15:03Where he filters out
00:15:04As the ART team
00:15:06Get to work
00:15:06Yeah
00:15:07Pulling the tyres on
00:15:09For Victor Martins
00:15:10Looked like a relatively
00:15:11Good stop
00:15:12And let's see
00:15:13Where he comes out
00:15:14Crawford is the man
00:15:14That we're watching
00:15:1511th place look
00:15:16In the dams
00:15:17And Martins is going to be
00:15:18Looking if he possibly can
00:15:20To filter out ahead
00:15:22There is Crawford
00:15:23Screen left
00:15:24Here comes Victor Martins
00:15:26On the right
00:15:27It's going to be a race
00:15:28To see
00:15:28Where he emerges
00:15:29Out
00:15:30They're going to be
00:15:30Almost side by side
00:15:32Crawford to the left
00:15:33Martins to the right
00:15:34Martins is now ahead
00:15:35Of Jack Crawford
00:15:36But he is not
00:15:37On warm tyres
00:15:38Will he be able
00:15:39To get the tyre
00:15:40Up to temperature
00:15:41Quick enough
00:15:41A big weave
00:15:42For Martins
00:15:43Tries to find
00:15:44A little bit of
00:15:45Front grip
00:15:45Crawford though
00:15:46With a lap
00:15:47Underneath the tyre
00:15:48Is homing in
00:15:49And that's the difference
00:15:49You can see there
00:15:50In terms of grip
00:15:51Can Martins
00:15:52Fill the road
00:15:53With ART here
00:15:55And keep hold
00:15:56Of the virtual
00:15:57Lead of the race
00:15:58Of course we do not
00:15:58Get until a DRS zone
00:16:00Until we get to
00:16:0120 corners
00:16:02So Martins has a
00:16:03Little while to try
00:16:04And keep Crawford
00:16:05At bay
00:16:05And he's defending
00:16:06Into turn 13
00:16:07Crawford goes to
00:16:08The outside
00:16:09Virtual safety car
00:16:10Is out
00:16:10Virtual safety car
00:16:11Has been deployed
00:16:12And that will be
00:16:13Finally for that
00:16:14Debris on the front
00:16:15Straight
00:16:16And that critically
00:16:17Is going to
00:16:18Normalise the tyre
00:16:19Temperature
00:16:19Between those two
00:16:21Drivers
00:16:21That are
00:16:22Will
00:16:22You know
00:16:23Will be
00:16:23At the front
00:16:24Of the group
00:16:25Of the drivers
00:16:25Who've pitted
00:16:26On that
00:16:27On that strategy
00:16:28Option 1
00:16:29So that has
00:16:30Given Martins
00:16:31A great opportunity
00:16:32To try and build
00:16:34A little bit of
00:16:34Tire temperature
00:16:35With the virtual
00:16:36Safety car out
00:16:37And hold on
00:16:38To that position
00:16:39Let's watch back
00:16:40Leo Fornaroli
00:16:41Here into the
00:16:42First corner
00:16:43I think it is
00:16:44Alex Dunn
00:16:44Ahead of us
00:16:45On Browning
00:16:45Yeah
00:16:46And Dunn's
00:16:47Going to go
00:16:47Across the inside
00:16:49Kerb
00:16:49And shovel
00:16:50Browning wide
00:16:51Fornaroli
00:16:51Picks up both
00:16:52What
00:16:53What are you doing
00:16:54Once
00:16:54Well
00:16:57It's
00:16:58The onus is on the driver
00:17:00He's been off the road
00:17:00To rejoin safely
00:17:02Stewards may well
00:17:03Have a bit of a look
00:17:04At that one
00:17:04Let's look at it
00:17:05From Browning's perspective
00:17:06We're going to cover
00:17:07The inside line
00:17:07Dunn is all the way ahead
00:17:10But then sends it
00:17:11Off the road
00:17:11Browning has to take
00:17:12Avoiding action
00:17:13As Dunn
00:17:14Clambers back
00:17:15Onto the racetrack
00:17:16It's at minimum
00:17:17A position back
00:17:18I think
00:17:18From Dunn to Browning
00:17:20Let's see if it gets
00:17:21Noted by the
00:17:22Race control
00:17:23On the steward
00:17:24We'll see
00:17:25It's on timing screen
00:17:27Browning ahead
00:17:28Of Dunn
00:17:29So
00:17:29We're going to assume
00:17:30That those positions
00:17:31Have been swapped
00:17:32But
00:17:33It's the manner
00:17:33In which he rejoined
00:17:34The circuit
00:17:35Richard for sure
00:17:36Is in the race lead
00:17:37Of course
00:17:38He's started
00:17:39On those medium
00:17:40Compound tyres
00:17:41He'll have to
00:17:42Get rid of those
00:17:43And put the super softs
00:17:44On
00:17:44At some stage
00:17:45And there
00:17:46Are the pit stops
00:17:46To the left hand side
00:17:48So Martin's down
00:17:49They've all come in
00:17:50The remainder
00:17:51All going longer
00:17:52In this race
00:17:52On pit out there
00:17:54Amory Cordille
00:17:55And
00:17:57The understanding
00:17:58As always
00:17:59In Formula 2
00:18:00Is the virtual safety car
00:18:01Disallows pit stops
00:18:02The only way
00:18:03He can do that
00:18:04Is if he clears
00:18:05The line
00:18:05We go back
00:18:07To green racing
00:18:08We think
00:18:08You need to give
00:18:09The position
00:18:09Back to Browning
00:18:10Yeah
00:18:14So Rodin
00:18:14Think so too
00:18:16And that's a smart move
00:18:17Getting out ahead of it
00:18:18Making sure
00:18:19It never actually
00:18:20Reaches
00:18:20The stewards
00:18:21Because once it does
00:18:22It's out of their hands
00:18:24And in a close race
00:18:26Like this one
00:18:27A 5 or 10 second penalty
00:18:29Is a lot greater penalty
00:18:31Than having to get
00:18:32The move done again
00:18:32So that message
00:18:35Coming through
00:18:35To Alex Dunn
00:18:37From the Rodin team
00:18:38But this as you mentioned
00:18:39Is giving a great opportunity
00:18:41To Victor Martins
00:18:42Who has essentially
00:18:43Taken the net lead
00:18:45Of the race
00:18:45Away from Jack Crawford
00:18:46And now has this
00:18:47Virtual safety car
00:18:48Time
00:18:49To get his tyres
00:18:50To get his tyres
00:18:50Up to temperature
00:18:51What will be going
00:18:51Through Jack Crawford's mind
00:18:53Yeah he'll be looking
00:18:54Back at Victor Martins
00:18:55And trying to keep
00:18:57Hold of the position
00:18:58This primary strategy
00:19:00This first strategy
00:19:00Looks to be
00:19:01The better one here
00:19:02They're only 27 seconds
00:19:03Off the lead
00:19:05As it stands
00:19:05And of course
00:19:06They'll have medium
00:19:07Compound tyres
00:19:07Newer ones
00:19:08Through this stage
00:19:09Of the race
00:19:09So as they go back
00:19:10To green again
00:19:11These two
00:19:12At this stage
00:19:13Are racing
00:19:14For the victory
00:19:15Of the feature race
00:19:16They are
00:19:16And they're coming up
00:19:17To a DRS zone
00:19:18They're in one
00:19:19And they'll hit
00:19:19Another one
00:19:20On the start
00:19:21Finish straight
00:19:21Will Jack Crawford
00:19:23Take his net race lead
00:19:25Back then
00:19:25Into the final corner
00:19:27We go
00:19:28And Martins
00:19:28Is going to have
00:19:29His hands full
00:19:30With the Aston Martin
00:19:31Back driver
00:19:32Jack Crawford
00:19:33Down the start
00:19:33Finish straight
00:19:34We go
00:19:35And there
00:19:35Is the DRS flap
00:19:36Opened
00:19:37Of Jack Crawford
00:19:38He wants this race lead
00:19:39Back from Victor Martins
00:19:41But Victor Martins
00:19:42Is furiously
00:19:43Trying to defend it
00:19:44Wheel to wheel
00:19:44They go
00:19:45In towards turn one
00:19:46Jack Crawford
00:19:47To the outside
00:19:48Of Victor Martins
00:19:49Now down the inside
00:19:50Through turn two
00:19:51And they'll be
00:19:52Side by side
00:19:53On the exit
00:19:53Fighting this one
00:19:54Down to turn four
00:19:55Is it going to be
00:19:56Crawford?
00:19:57Is it going to be
00:19:57Martins?
00:19:58Who's going to be
00:19:59Braver on the brakes?
00:20:00Martins holds on for now
00:20:01Inches from the wall
00:20:02Victor Martins
00:20:03Strangles it
00:20:04Through the outside
00:20:05Of turn number two
00:20:06To keep hold of the position
00:20:07The driver
00:20:08Connected to Williams
00:20:09Versus the driver
00:20:10Connected to Aston Martin
00:20:12This is Victor Martins
00:20:13Third season
00:20:14In Formula 2
00:20:15The one that needs
00:20:16To work out for him
00:20:17And he's fighting
00:20:18For his life
00:20:19And his career
00:20:20And I'll tell you what
00:20:21For sure out front
00:20:22We'll just be hoping
00:20:22These battles continue
00:20:24As they come through
00:20:26Turn 13
00:20:27Dunn meanwhile
00:20:28Has allowed Luke Browning
00:20:30To go through
00:20:31Great fighting
00:20:32This between
00:20:33Victor Martins
00:20:35And Jack Crawford
00:20:36For Neroli
00:20:36About five seconds
00:20:38Behind this
00:20:38So he'll be hoping
00:20:39These battles
00:20:40Do continue
00:20:41Jack Crawford
00:20:42Now trying to just
00:20:43Stay with Victor Martins
00:20:44And go again
00:20:45Yeah trying to stay
00:20:46In the wheel tracks
00:20:47If he possibly can
00:20:48A great turn of pace
00:20:49Out front
00:20:50Right out front
00:20:50For Richard Vashore
00:20:52As well
00:20:52Who's trying his
00:20:53Absolute best
00:20:54To lead that pack
00:20:56You're on the
00:20:56Alternative strategy
00:20:57Further through the race
00:20:59At the moment
00:21:00These two though
00:21:01That we have on screen now
00:21:02Would be well ahead
00:21:03By the time
00:21:04Richard Vashore
00:21:04Comes out of the pit lane
00:21:06And DRS though
00:21:07Again available for Crawford
00:21:09Is he going to make his move
00:21:10Into turn 27
00:21:11It didn't work at turn 1
00:21:12Last time
00:21:13Jack Crawford waits though
00:21:15He knows that an opportunity
00:21:16Is available
00:21:17At turn 1
00:21:18He knows he's going to have
00:21:20A whole start finish
00:21:21Straight full of DRS
00:21:22Wait for that rear flap
00:21:23To open
00:21:24We're riding on board
00:21:25With Victor Martins
00:21:26This essentially
00:21:27A battle for the lead
00:21:28Of the race
00:21:29This could be a huge moment
00:21:30For Crawford
00:21:31Who will now sweep
00:21:32Past Victor Martins
00:21:33And go into P9
00:21:35Would you like a late break
00:21:36Or a drive by
00:21:37I'll have a drive by
00:21:38Please
00:21:39And halve the bill
00:21:40Says Jack Crawford
00:21:42And he takes
00:21:42The net
00:21:43What will be the net P1
00:21:45Away from Victor Martins
00:21:46Great driving there
00:21:47From Jack Crawford
00:21:48And you could just see
00:21:49Backing off into the final
00:21:50Corner there
00:21:51He knew
00:21:52That that was all about
00:21:53Waiting for that start
00:21:55Finish straight
00:21:55And then going through
00:21:56Meanwhile
00:21:57Behind
00:21:58Leonardo Fornaroli
00:21:59Has just set
00:22:01The fastest lap
00:22:02Of the race
00:22:02He was once
00:22:03Five seconds behind
00:22:04He's now
00:22:05Just over four
00:22:06As we jump on board
00:22:07With Pepe Martins
00:22:08That done
00:22:09Has let Browning
00:22:10Back through
00:22:11That has
00:22:12That's occurred
00:22:13This is the battle
00:22:14That we saw
00:22:14A few moments ago
00:22:15Pepe Martins
00:22:16Trying to
00:22:17Make his way through
00:22:18At the moment
00:22:19This is over
00:22:2012th
00:22:2113th
00:22:22And 14th
00:22:23But it will not be
00:22:24By the end of the race
00:22:24It's going to
00:22:27Of course
00:22:27Take them further up the field
00:22:29Once those pit stops
00:22:30Are completed
00:22:30For the top eight
00:22:31Those are the drivers
00:22:32We await for them
00:22:34To come in
00:22:34A little bit later on
00:22:36Fornaroli there
00:22:37We see go through
00:22:37He's doing great sector times
00:22:39In trying to chase down
00:22:41Crawford and Martins
00:22:42And then
00:22:42This our battle
00:22:44Being led by Luke Browning
00:22:45Alex Dunn
00:22:46Who gave that position
00:22:47Back to him
00:22:48On the restart
00:22:49Of the virtual safety car
00:22:50And then it is
00:22:51Pepe Marti
00:22:52And Gavrieli Mini
00:22:53Also in there as well
00:22:54Arvid Lindblad
00:22:55Is just over two seconds back
00:22:57Browning
00:22:58The driver
00:22:58Who has already
00:22:59Been behind the wheel
00:23:01Of a Williams Formula One car
00:23:02This season
00:23:04Trying to hold up
00:23:05Dunn
00:23:05Pepe Marti
00:23:06The Red Bull Junior driver
00:23:08Looks like Dunn's going to have
00:23:09An option to the inside
00:23:11Great dive there
00:23:12From Pepe Marti
00:23:14Grabbing the apex of 27
00:23:15And that was clean and tidy
00:23:17But did
00:23:18But did Dunn
00:23:19Let him through
00:23:20To take the DRS
00:23:21Back down the front straight
00:23:23He's going to have a problem though
00:23:24Marti's got it too
00:23:25So he's going to have to go
00:23:26Down the outside
00:23:27Of turn one
00:23:28The two drivers
00:23:29Tied for the lead
00:23:30In the championship
00:23:30Now wheel to wheel
00:23:31Into turn one
00:23:33And Pepe Marti
00:23:34That was very good
00:23:35Driving there
00:23:36Managed to get the move
00:23:37Done into the final corner
00:23:38And held off
00:23:40Any challenges
00:23:41From the Irishman
00:23:42Into the first corner
00:23:44Gabrieli Mini
00:23:45Watching on in the background
00:23:46Will now be plotting
00:23:47His attack
00:23:48On how he gets by the road
00:23:49In motorsport driver
00:23:50Current fourth place man
00:23:52Oli Gerther
00:23:53Has been picked up
00:23:53For a virtual safety car
00:23:55Infringement
00:23:56So we'll watch out
00:23:58For that one
00:23:58There goes Marti
00:23:59To the inside of Dunn
00:24:00Dunn not too fast
00:24:01Until he realises
00:24:03That Browning
00:24:04Is going to be
00:24:05Giving out the DRS
00:24:06As well
00:24:07Has to battle
00:24:08All the way down
00:24:09The front straight
00:24:09And essentially then
00:24:10Losing out to Marti
00:24:12On that first apex
00:24:13Of the lap
00:24:13He does
00:24:15And Jack Crawford
00:24:15Has just done a purple
00:24:16First sector
00:24:17Trying to break the DRS
00:24:20On Victor Martins
00:24:22And it looks like
00:24:24He may have just done that
00:24:25They are now split by
00:24:27Just over one second
00:24:29So Jack Crawford
00:24:30Doing very well
00:24:31And we focus our attention
00:24:32To this battle
00:24:33Another key moment
00:24:34For Jack Crawford
00:24:35Did that in the early stages
00:24:36Of the race
00:24:37And he is doing it again
00:24:39Putting in very good sector times
00:24:40Meanwhile
00:24:41Browning is having to soak up
00:24:42A lot of pressure here
00:24:44Alex
00:24:44From Marti
00:24:46Dunn
00:24:47And then next along
00:24:47Mini
00:24:48It's going to be
00:24:48Pepe Marti
00:24:49Next to try
00:24:50And attack Luke Browning
00:24:51Just keeping the rest of them
00:24:53Out of trouble with the DRS
00:24:55Browning has it under control
00:24:58For the moment
00:24:58But for how long
00:25:00Going to be under pressure
00:25:01Now again
00:25:01Surely
00:25:02And Marti
00:25:03Being really patient
00:25:04Down towards turn 27
00:25:06Big swapper
00:25:07Through the exit
00:25:08For Pepe Marti
00:25:09And has Browning
00:25:10Just got the traction
00:25:11To keep Marti
00:25:12Under control
00:25:12In the big braking zones
00:25:13He may well do so
00:25:15But Pepe Marti
00:25:16Is full of confidence
00:25:17This season
00:25:17He's full of confidence
00:25:18This weekend
00:25:19And he's going to go down
00:25:20The inside
00:25:21At turn 1
00:25:21Browning
00:25:22Running wide
00:25:23Under braking there
00:25:24And Pepe Marti
00:25:25Is going to be behind
00:25:26For the time being
00:25:27But he will feel
00:25:28He'll need to get by
00:25:30Luke Browning
00:25:31Will he feel
00:25:31He should be by
00:25:32Luke Browning
00:25:33At this stage
00:25:33Yeah he's holding them up
00:25:34Now isn't he
00:25:35And he's really
00:25:36Putting a lot of time
00:25:38Into their total race here
00:25:40Luke Browning
00:25:41I think he's okay
00:25:42To hold on to that position
00:25:44It was a bit of a lunge
00:25:44From Pepe Marti
00:25:46You've got to ask yourself
00:25:47How long Browning
00:25:48Can hold on
00:25:49Let's have a look at it
00:25:50Down the inside
00:25:51Marti
00:25:51Only gets to the rear tyre
00:25:54There look
00:25:54Browning appearing
00:25:55To have the car under control
00:25:56It's generally
00:25:57Right front tyre
00:25:58Up against cockpit there
00:25:59Yeah come on
00:25:59He went to
00:25:59Zero racing corner
00:26:00Never make you look at it
00:26:02Okay
00:26:02Interesting to see
00:26:06What race control
00:26:06And the stewards
00:26:07Think of that one
00:26:08Speaking of good sector
00:26:10Times
00:26:10Valiant effort
00:26:11From Richard Vershaw
00:26:12Out front
00:26:13Who stabilised the gap here
00:26:15He's doing the same
00:26:16Lap on lap
00:26:17As Crawford's doing
00:26:18On a much newer
00:26:20Medium tyre
00:26:21So Richard Vershaw
00:26:22Most experienced driver
00:26:23In the field
00:26:24As it sits
00:26:24The Dutchman
00:26:25Is finding
00:26:26Finding something
00:26:28Out of that
00:26:28Older set of mediums
00:26:29To keep him in the action
00:26:3121 seconds
00:26:32Is the total gap
00:26:33Back now
00:26:34That's more than a pit stop
00:26:36But it's still
00:26:36A pretty impressive stint
00:26:37And this battle
00:26:38Is helping Richard Vershaw out
00:26:40I'll tell you that
00:26:41This will play into his favour
00:26:42The fact that
00:26:43Browning is having to deal
00:26:44With pressure
00:26:45From Marty Dunn
00:26:46Mini
00:26:47These are fourth in the queue
00:26:49In terms of the drivers
00:26:50That have stopped
00:26:51But this could all work
00:26:52In Richard Vershaw's favour
00:26:53If he can keep putting in
00:26:55Those sector times
00:26:56As Alex has highlighted
00:26:57Quickest through the first sector
00:26:59Again on the last lap
00:27:00Okay let's ride on board
00:27:01With Luke Browning
00:27:03And once again
00:27:04Having to try
00:27:05And break the toe
00:27:06Pepe Marti
00:27:06Is going to try the outside
00:27:07This time
00:27:08Is he going to go
00:27:09All the way around
00:27:10The outside of Luke Browning
00:27:11He's wide
00:27:11Through turn two
00:27:13They've gone
00:27:14Wheel to wheel
00:27:14Again
00:27:15And Luke Browning
00:27:16Emerges ahead
00:27:17And is Browning
00:27:17Going to blend out
00:27:18Of that one
00:27:19And give Marty
00:27:20The position
00:27:20The problem that he's got
00:27:21Is if he does so
00:27:22Then Dunn
00:27:23Has all of the opportunity
00:27:24To make the pass on him
00:27:26That's going to be
00:27:27A tough decision
00:27:28For Luke Browning
00:27:29Perhaps a judgement call
00:27:30For the team
00:27:31On the pit wall
00:27:31As we just heard at Rodin
00:27:32Alex Dunn
00:27:33The best seat in the house
00:27:35There
00:27:35Right behind
00:27:36For that one
00:27:37Pepe Marti
00:27:38Most likely
00:27:39Will be on the phone
00:27:40Let's watch it once again
00:27:41Yeah
00:27:41Pepe Marti
00:27:42Returning this season
00:27:44Tries to
00:27:45Get around the outside
00:27:46Of the driver
00:27:46Who took to six races
00:27:48Before he started
00:27:49This first full season
00:27:50Of Formula 2
00:27:51And I think Marty's
00:27:52Got the corner there
00:27:53When you look at it
00:27:54At the apex
00:27:55Pretty much side by side
00:27:56And
00:27:57I don't know
00:27:58If
00:27:58I don't know
00:27:59If
00:28:00Browning
00:28:01Will be happy
00:28:01To keep hold
00:28:02Of that one
00:28:02Well
00:28:04It was a
00:28:05Familiar view yesterday
00:28:06Pepe Marti
00:28:07On the exit
00:28:07Slots back
00:28:08Into Browning
00:28:09And he is becoming
00:28:11Increasingly difficult
00:28:13To get past
00:28:13Meanwhile
00:28:14You did allude to it
00:28:15Richard for sure
00:28:16Is keeping
00:28:17A very good gap
00:28:19To
00:28:20The drivers
00:28:21Who have come through
00:28:22Particularly
00:28:23Highlighted there
00:28:2424 seconds
00:28:25To
00:28:25Victor Martins
00:28:26Jack Crawford
00:28:27Built a gap
00:28:28To him
00:28:28But Richard
00:28:29Vershaw
00:28:30Clearly fired up
00:28:31I think
00:28:31From the events
00:28:32That unfolded
00:28:33Yesterday
00:28:33Alex
00:28:33And he wants
00:28:35To get a good result
00:28:35He was six tenths
00:28:36Of a second
00:28:37Quicker than Crawford
00:28:38Last time around
00:28:40As Browning's under pressure
00:28:41Again
00:28:41Down onto the front straight
00:28:42This is a monster stint
00:28:44From Richard
00:28:44Vershaw
00:28:45And he's driving himself
00:28:46Back into contention
00:28:47For the win
00:28:48He really is
00:28:493.8 seconds
00:28:50Ahead of mining
00:28:51Okay
00:28:51On board with Marti
00:28:52Down this start
00:28:53Finish straight
00:28:54Will he complete the move
00:28:55On Browning
00:28:55This time
00:28:56It looks like he's done it
00:28:57Before the breaking zone
00:28:58Done side by side
00:28:59With Browning
00:29:00Browning goes wide
00:29:01And it's gonna be
00:29:02Marti
00:29:03Who is now ahead
00:29:04Of Browning
00:29:04Browning though
00:29:05Ahead of Alex Dunn
00:29:07Dunn
00:29:07Was down
00:29:08The inside
00:29:09But Browning
00:29:10Emerges in the lead
00:29:11It's like a penalty loop
00:29:12Isn't it
00:29:12Down in turn two
00:29:14There were
00:29:15Mini
00:29:15Mini was through there
00:29:17A couple of times yesterday
00:29:18Today it's Browning
00:29:19When they get in the battles
00:29:20Like this
00:29:21Jumping across
00:29:22That middle apex
00:29:23And it's
00:29:25It's a shame to see
00:29:26But a reality
00:29:27Of the modern nature
00:29:28Of modern racetracks
00:29:29This one
00:29:30With far less run off
00:29:32Than most
00:29:32Here it is then
00:29:33Dunn gets down
00:29:34The inside
00:29:35Browning chooses to cut
00:29:36Across the
00:29:38Across the apex
00:29:39Of the chicane
00:29:39And will hold on
00:29:40To that position
00:29:40Dunn
00:29:42Will feel
00:29:42He should be ahead
00:29:43On this stage
00:29:44I must say
00:29:45That we are seeing
00:29:46Track limits
00:29:47Come up
00:29:48For Browning
00:29:49When that has happened
00:29:50You've got to be careful
00:29:51You don't exceed track limits
00:29:52Too many times
00:29:53That can lead to
00:29:54Five second penalties
00:29:55We did see penalties
00:29:56Yesterday
00:29:57Didn't we
00:29:57For leaving the track
00:29:59And gaining an advantage
00:30:00Exactly there
00:30:01So it's something
00:30:02So it's something
00:30:02To be monitored
00:30:03Now whilst all of that
00:30:05Has been going on
00:30:05Alex
00:30:06One Red Bull Junior
00:30:07Leads the queue
00:30:07The other one's at the back
00:30:08Lindblad has closed down
00:30:09A two second gap
00:30:10He is now on the back
00:30:12Of this as we see
00:30:12Alex Dunn run wide
00:30:13Now after a brilliant race
00:30:15Yesterday
00:30:15Arvid Lindblad
00:30:16Has found himself
00:30:17Towards the
00:30:18Towards the back
00:30:19Of this queue
00:30:20Of primary strategy
00:30:22Runners today
00:30:23Let's see what sort
00:30:23Of pace he can have
00:30:25To make a move
00:30:26Through the field
00:30:27You've got
00:30:27Olly Gertha
00:30:28Trying to make a move
00:30:28As well
00:30:29Under investigation
00:30:31Or being discussed
00:30:32For a potential
00:30:33Safety car infringement
00:30:34It's Roman Stanek
00:30:35Ahead of us
00:30:36In the Invicta
00:30:37And these guys
00:30:38Are all following
00:30:39Along behind
00:30:40Richard Vershaw
00:30:41Although it's a
00:30:42Decent gap back
00:30:43Vershaw
00:30:43Has left mining
00:30:45Like no one's business
00:30:475.2 seconds
00:30:48He's by so far
00:30:50The quickest
00:30:50Of these alternate
00:30:52Strategy runners
00:30:53He just did the
00:30:54Fastest lap
00:30:54Of the race as well
00:30:56Stanek
00:30:56When I was trying
00:30:57To defend this position
00:30:58Olly Gertha
00:31:02Not pleased
00:31:03With the defensive
00:31:05Moves of
00:31:06Roman Stanek
00:31:07Olly Gertha
00:31:07Has been in the points
00:31:08Once this season
00:31:10Stanek has been there
00:31:11Twice
00:31:12And those two
00:31:13Disputing
00:31:14Third place
00:31:15On track
00:31:16But they both
00:31:17Yet to serve
00:31:18Their pit stop
00:31:18In this race
00:31:20Now Arvid Lindblad
00:31:21We mentioned
00:31:22Has joined the back
00:31:23Of this queue
00:31:23There he is
00:31:24The youngest
00:31:25Winner
00:31:26In Formula 2
00:31:27Will that give him
00:31:28The confidence
00:31:29Now he needs to
00:31:30Start making an impact
00:31:31On this battle
00:31:32Has arrived there
00:31:34But getting to
00:31:35The queue is one thing
00:31:36Making moves
00:31:37Is another
00:31:38These drivers
00:31:40Just battling away
00:31:41Through this
00:31:42Mid pack
00:31:42From sort of
00:31:44Marty downwards
00:31:45I wonder if the team
00:31:45Are going to get on the radio
00:31:46To them there
00:31:47And just say
00:31:48Look you've got
00:31:49Richard Vershaw
00:31:50Pushing away
00:31:51At the front of the field
00:31:51Still owes you a pit stop
00:31:52You're teetering on the edge
00:31:54Right now
00:31:55Of whether he comes out
00:31:57In front of you
00:31:57In front of you
00:31:57Or not
00:31:58Just stop battling
00:31:59For a minute
00:32:00And get off
00:32:01Up the road
00:32:01Let's have a look
00:32:02At Oli Gertha
00:32:03Trying to make another move
00:32:04On Stanek
00:32:04That's a late lunge
00:32:05Oli
00:32:06Stanek
00:32:06Gives him room
00:32:07On the apex
00:32:08Let's see if he's got
00:32:09The traction
00:32:09Through the exit
00:32:10Though
00:32:10Oli Gertha
00:32:11Trying to get
00:32:11That's the move
00:32:12Done on the exit
00:32:13Roman Stanek
00:32:14Is going to have
00:32:14To go defensive
00:32:15Into turn four
00:32:16And Oli Gertha
00:32:17Will look to the outside
00:32:18Great on board
00:32:19View this
00:32:20Through a demanding
00:32:21Section on the track
00:32:22See how much
00:32:23They're now having to lift
00:32:24That giving you a feel
00:32:25For the degradation
00:32:26It's mostly front tyre
00:32:28Degradation here
00:32:29There's not a huge
00:32:30Amount of it
00:32:31It's a low energy
00:32:34Circuit in general
00:32:35But you do start to lose
00:32:36That grip and bite
00:32:37Of the front tyre
00:32:38Especially as we're
00:32:39Moving later on
00:32:40Into the medium
00:32:41Compound stint
00:32:42Another purple
00:32:43First sector
00:32:44From Richard Vashore
00:32:46And he is at
00:32:47Three or four tenths
00:32:48Clear of what
00:32:49Crawford did
00:32:50Leading the alternative
00:32:51The other strategy pack
00:32:52In eighth position
00:32:53Last time around
00:32:55So continuing on
00:32:56Mine is also
00:32:57Picking up the pace
00:32:58Slightly
00:32:58With the best first sector
00:32:59For him
00:33:00Just five seconds
00:33:01Down the road
00:33:02From Vashore
00:33:02Incident under
00:33:03Investigation
00:33:05Browning and done
00:33:07And there it is
00:33:07At the top of your screen
00:33:08Forcing another driver
00:33:09Off the track
00:33:11So we will
00:33:12See if anything
00:33:13Comes of that
00:33:14We saw that
00:33:15A little bit earlier
00:33:16In the race
00:33:17When done
00:33:17Rejoined the circuit
00:33:18Into the path
00:33:19Of Browning
00:33:20So we'll see
00:33:20If anything
00:33:21Comes of that
00:33:22As we see
00:33:22This battle
00:33:23Coming through
00:33:24Now the middle section
00:33:26Of the circuit
00:33:27Sector two
00:33:28Meanwhile Vashore
00:33:29Continuing
00:33:30Still set
00:33:31Fastest sectors
00:33:32He's 29 seconds
00:33:33Ahead of
00:33:34Fornaroli
00:33:34Alex
00:33:35Trying to
00:33:36Make up for
00:33:37A race
00:33:38He so easily
00:33:39Could have won
00:33:40Yesterday
00:33:40Losing out
00:33:41To a penalty
00:33:43Having led the field
00:33:44Across the line
00:33:45Oliver Gertha
00:33:47Let's have another look
00:33:48At it then
00:33:48He's going to have to
00:33:49Go down the outside
00:33:50At E1
00:33:50Down the outside
00:33:52Oli Gertha
00:33:53Goes
00:33:53Side by side
00:33:54We go
00:33:54He's going to
00:33:55Look for a cutback
00:33:56He was wise
00:33:57To the defensive
00:33:58Move of
00:33:59Stanek
00:33:59There
00:34:00Oli Gertha
00:34:01Slots in behind
00:34:01Top of screen
00:34:02Black and white flag
00:34:04For Browning
00:34:04For track limits
00:34:05We noted this
00:34:06Earlier Alex
00:34:07If you run wide
00:34:08Through the likes
00:34:09Of turn two
00:34:09You will be noted
00:34:11For track limits
00:34:11And that is
00:34:12Essentially
00:34:12Your final warning
00:34:13Yeah
00:34:14You get picked up
00:34:15For it
00:34:15And then eventually
00:34:16You will pick up
00:34:17A penalty
00:34:18Pepe Marti
00:34:20Still
00:34:21Making
00:34:22His way through
00:34:23And
00:34:24Trying to
00:34:26Trying to hold
00:34:26This battle pack
00:34:27Behind
00:34:28As he has been
00:34:28For most of the race
00:34:30Ever since he made
00:34:31His way past Browning
00:34:32There are
00:34:32Some quite specific
00:34:34Regulations
00:34:34Quite specific
00:34:35Guidelines around
00:34:36Who owns the road
00:34:37When they go side by side
00:34:39Down into a corner
00:34:40Like that first chicane
00:34:41If you're on the inside
00:34:42And you have the
00:34:43Tyre up against
00:34:44The cockpit
00:34:45Then you
00:34:47Own the road
00:34:47If you're on the outside
00:34:48You need to be
00:34:49Front tyre
00:34:50To front tyre
00:34:51And I see a penalty
00:34:52Coming in then
00:34:52For Dan
00:34:53Yes
00:34:53Five second time penalty
00:34:55For Alex Dunn
00:34:56For forcing another driver
00:34:58Off the circuit
00:34:59So
00:34:59That has just come in
00:35:01For Alex Dunn
00:35:03He has been given
00:35:04A five second penalty
00:35:05So
00:35:06His race now
00:35:07Becomes
00:35:08More difficult
00:35:09There you can see
00:35:10Pit stop
00:35:11You mentioned this earlier
00:35:12Alex
00:35:12Around 30 seconds
00:35:13Your average time loss
00:35:14Plus the extra
00:35:15To get the tyres
00:35:16Up to temperature
00:35:17The gap
00:35:18Between Vishal
00:35:18And Jack Crawford
00:35:1925 seconds
00:35:21And he will have
00:35:22Faster tyres
00:35:23When he comes back
00:35:24Out onto the circuit
00:35:24And that's because
00:35:25He continues
00:35:26To put in
00:35:27Faster slaps
00:35:28Guess what
00:35:28He's just done
00:35:29The fastest lap
00:35:30Again
00:35:30It's a real
00:35:31Difficult balance
00:35:32Now for MP
00:35:33So they're going to
00:35:34Decide how long
00:35:35They give for sure
00:35:36To try to hang on
00:35:37To this tyre
00:35:37We've got action
00:35:38Then again
00:35:39Down towards turn one
00:35:40And Oli Gertha
00:35:40Still trying to make
00:35:41The move
00:35:42On Stanek
00:35:43And that is
00:35:44And that is a move
00:35:45Back again
00:35:46For Stanek
00:35:48Can Oli Gertha
00:35:48Do anything about it
00:35:50Through the exit
00:35:50It's Joshua Dirksen
00:35:52In close pursuit
00:35:53Joshua Dirksen
00:35:54Right there behind
00:35:55We're waiting
00:35:56For the top seven
00:35:57To come into pit lane
00:35:58These drivers included
00:36:00And Oli Gertha
00:36:01Trying to get by
00:36:02Roman Stanek
00:36:03He's tried that move
00:36:04On a number of times
00:36:05We're getting closer
00:36:06And closer
00:36:06To crucial pit stops
00:36:08But the call
00:36:08They need to make
00:36:09Now for for sure
00:36:10Is are they going
00:36:11To try and wait
00:36:11For a safety car
00:36:12And get him out
00:36:13For sure
00:36:14Into the lead
00:36:15Of the race
00:36:16On the best
00:36:16Compounder tyre
00:36:17Or are they going
00:36:18To give him
00:36:18The maximum
00:36:19That they
00:36:20Possibly can
00:36:21In terms of time
00:36:23To make his way
00:36:23Through the field
00:36:24And gamble
00:36:25That they'll lose out
00:36:26On any kind
00:36:27Of safety car benefit
00:36:28That's what's going on
00:36:29On the MP pit wall
00:36:30Right now
00:36:31They need to decide
00:36:32When to pull the trigger
00:36:33And what's going
00:36:35To give for sure
00:36:36The best opportunity
00:36:37To storm back
00:36:38Through that leading pack
00:36:39And win the race
00:36:39It will all be going on
00:36:42The conversations
00:36:42On the pit wall
00:36:43Like you said
00:36:44Meanwhile
00:36:44A message to for sure
00:36:46Is just keep putting in
00:36:47Those fastest sets of times
00:36:49And he's doing it
00:36:50Superbly
00:36:51So far
00:36:52Out front
00:36:537.4 seconds
00:36:55Ahead of Cushmine
00:36:56And he's finding place
00:36:57Where none of these guys can
00:36:58It's a relatively short pit lane
00:37:00As well
00:37:00In terms of
00:37:01A drive through time here
00:37:03It's quite a long pit lane
00:37:04In terms of distance
00:37:04But not a lot of it
00:37:05Is speed limit controlled
00:37:07So Veshaw won't lose
00:37:09As much as he might
00:37:10At other venues
00:37:11It's going to be all about
00:37:13Getting that tyre up to temperature
00:37:14But critically as well
00:37:15Of course
00:37:15It's the super soft tyre
00:37:16It comes to you quicker
00:37:18He's going to have
00:37:18Less fuel
00:37:19In the car
00:37:20When he goes for it
00:37:21And he's got a car
00:37:22Jumping for the pit lane
00:37:22And this is Veshaw's team mate
00:37:25Oli Gertha
00:37:26Who has come in
00:37:27For MP Motorsport
00:37:28So he will now make
00:37:30His pit stop
00:37:31He will get rid of those
00:37:32Medium top tyres
00:37:34And he will put on
00:37:35The super soft tyres
00:37:36So this is almost
00:37:37A pre-run for them
00:37:39When they bring in
00:37:40Richard Veshaw
00:37:41Oli Gertha will now come in
00:37:42Let's see where this
00:37:43Filters him out to
00:37:44He's been in that fight
00:37:45With Roman Stanek
00:37:47With Joshua Dirksen
00:37:48Oli Gertha
00:37:49Bit slow away at the end there
00:37:51But he has now
00:37:52Completed his stop
00:37:53Four mechanics
00:37:53Four guns
00:37:54That's a warm up
00:37:55For the team isn't it
00:37:56And a feel
00:37:56For how quickly
00:37:57This super soft tyre
00:37:59Is going to warm up
00:38:00Let's see where
00:38:00Oli Gertha feeds back out
00:38:02That'll give us
00:38:02A really good clue
00:38:03As to how long
00:38:05This pit stop process is
00:38:07And how much he struggles
00:38:08Through the pit exit
00:38:10Just behind
00:38:10Sebastian Montoya
00:38:12So from a decent way
00:38:13Back from his team mate
00:38:15He's filtered out
00:38:16Into the mid to lower pack
00:38:18Of those option tyre
00:38:21First runners
00:38:22Let's see where he goes
00:38:25He has dropped
00:38:27Around 26-27 seconds
00:38:29It's around a 30 second loss
00:38:31In terms of the pit stop
00:38:34Leo Fornaroli
00:38:35Is 31 seconds back
00:38:37And I think that's the driver
00:38:38We've got to look at
00:38:39In terms of Richard Veshaw
00:38:41Meanwhile
00:38:42We are looking at
00:38:43Pepe Marti
00:38:44And Luke Browning
00:38:44Well if that was a 26 second stop
00:38:46It was not the best stop
00:38:48I've ever seen them do
00:38:49At MP
00:38:50So that gives you a feel
00:38:51For where Veshaw
00:38:52Might filter back out
00:38:53And then as you say Chris
00:38:54He's going to have better tyres
00:38:55For the remainder of the race
00:38:57You're looking over
00:38:58The rear wing
00:38:59Of this pack
00:39:00They just cannot
00:39:01Leave each other alone
00:39:02Can they
00:39:02These guys
00:39:03With the amount of DRS
00:39:04That's being given out
00:39:06Pepe Marti
00:39:06Looks like he's got
00:39:07The better pace
00:39:08Of all of them
00:39:10And is able to hang on to it
00:39:12He though
00:39:13Is moving towards the rear
00:39:15Of Kian Shields
00:39:16So that's going to give him
00:39:17A little bit of DRS look
00:39:18And keep him out of trouble
00:39:19For now
00:39:20It is
00:39:20There they come down
00:39:22Pepe Marti
00:39:23Will pick up that
00:39:24DRS of Shields
00:39:26Who is yet to make his stop
00:39:27And he will do so
00:39:29This time
00:39:30He gets out of the way
00:39:31And it looks as if
00:39:32For a while
00:39:33Pepe Marti was going in
00:39:34But he was getting
00:39:35All of the slipstream
00:39:37He could
00:39:37In the background
00:39:39Alex Dunn
00:39:40Coming under
00:39:41A bit of threat there
00:39:42From Mini
00:39:42But Veshaw
00:39:44Continues to set
00:39:45Fastest sectors
00:39:45He's almost making
00:39:46The decision
00:39:47For MP Motorsport
00:39:48To just leave me out
00:39:49As long as you can
00:39:50Because I'm doing
00:39:51The fastest sectors
00:39:53Fastest laps of the race
00:39:54Meanwhile
00:39:54Pepe Marti
00:39:55We ride on board
00:39:57With now
00:39:58Looking back
00:39:59At Luke Browning
00:40:00With Alex Dunn
00:40:01Next along
00:40:01This battle
00:40:02Washing through
00:40:04This early sector
00:40:05Of the lap
00:40:05So hard for drivers
00:40:06To retain the front grip
00:40:09Trying to keep air
00:40:10Over that front wing
00:40:11All the way through here
00:40:12And try and stay close
00:40:14To the driver ahead
00:40:15Gives you a sense
00:40:16Of the challenge
00:40:17When they're racing
00:40:18Wheel to wheel
00:40:19Around here
00:40:19Every ounce of tow though
00:40:20You can have
00:40:21So important
00:40:22Over 75%
00:40:24Full throttle
00:40:25Percentage here
00:40:26In a Formula 1 car
00:40:27It's a little bit less
00:40:28In Formula 2
00:40:28With the amount
00:40:29Of downforce they have
00:40:30But still a monumentally quick
00:40:32Over 6km layout
00:40:34With these huge
00:40:35Flat out sections
00:40:36Higher speed recorded here
00:40:38320km per hour
00:40:41Plus
00:40:42And they're a sense
00:40:43Of the average pit stop loss
00:40:45It will be a little bit less here
00:40:47For Richard Veshaw
00:40:49Fastest lap of the race
00:40:5046.8
00:40:52Last time around
00:40:53That's another half a second
00:40:54He's taken out of the pursuing pack
00:40:57And he's driving himself
00:40:58Into it
00:40:59This is a monumental drive
00:41:01For for sure
00:41:01Miney comes in
00:41:02So Cushminey in
00:41:05And Roman Stanek in
00:41:07Okay
00:41:08Super soft tyre is going on for them
00:41:11And now they will go back out
00:41:13To the end of the race
00:41:15And here is Roman Stanek making his stop
00:41:17Roman Stanek in and out
00:41:19In Victor doing the business
00:41:21Maybe slight hold there
00:41:23For the Alpine Genie machine
00:41:25That made its way through
00:41:26That was Miney's stop
00:41:27Stopped slightly earlier
00:41:28And they'll filter back out
00:41:31Onto the racetrack
00:41:32So it's
00:41:33Derksen
00:41:34Is
00:41:35The
00:41:35Derksen
00:41:37Beganovic
00:41:38And Esterson
00:41:38The only car
00:41:40From any stop
00:41:40And there is
00:41:42Miney
00:41:43In the background
00:41:44Coming out
00:41:45With the likes
00:41:47Of Stanek
00:41:48I think we do need to look to the likes
00:41:50Of Fornaroli here
00:41:51And possibly Martins
00:41:53When Richard Vashore
00:41:54Comes in
00:41:55To pit lane
00:41:57Okay
00:41:57We watch Marty
00:41:58I think you might be right though Alex
00:42:00I think the drivers in this battle
00:42:02Might have just been told
00:42:03We do have some laps to go
00:42:05In this race
00:42:06It seems to have just settled down
00:42:08Slightly for the time being
00:42:09That could grow in intensity
00:42:10Once the laps stick on
00:42:12And it will be a case of
00:42:12Who's looked after their tyres
00:42:14Yeah get on with it lads
00:42:15You're going to have to
00:42:16See off all of those drivers
00:42:17On the alternative strategy
00:42:19And they are going to be coming through
00:42:21With the super soft tyre
00:42:23The question
00:42:24The only question
00:42:26For this race now
00:42:27Is how long do they wait
00:42:28With Vashore
00:42:29Derksen's got a turn of pace as well
00:42:30Fastest first sector
00:42:32Of anyone
00:42:32Although he is
00:42:3412 seconds behind
00:42:35And we're hearing
00:42:35Richard Vashore is in
00:42:37Where he filters out
00:42:38Will be the biggest factor
00:42:40In the victory for this one
00:42:41This is a very big pit stop
00:42:43For MP Motorsport
00:42:45The crew
00:42:45Awake for him to come in
00:42:47Richard Vashore
00:42:49Did not take the victory
00:42:50Yesterday
00:42:51Can he now go and do so today
00:42:53It may all rely on this pit stop
00:42:55For MP Motorsport
00:42:56It's a good pit stop
00:42:58And Richard Vashore is away
00:42:59Right where does he come out now
00:43:01In terms of Crawford
00:43:02In terms of Martins
00:43:03In terms of Fornaroli
00:43:04There comes Crawford
00:43:05Bottom of your screen
00:43:06He's going through turn one
00:43:08Martins looks level with him
00:43:10As they come through turn one
00:43:11He's behind Crawford
00:43:12But he's ahead
00:43:13Of Victor Martins
00:43:14He's a head-to-head jewel then
00:43:16With the two drivers out front
00:43:19If Richard Vashore
00:43:20Can get these tyres
00:43:21Up to temperature
00:43:22And do exactly what we saw
00:43:24Victor Martins try and do
00:43:25Earlier on in the race
00:43:27Make that MP as wide as possible
00:43:29While he builds tyre temperature
00:43:30Critical track position
00:43:32For Vashore
00:43:32If he wants to win this feature race
00:43:34After being denied yesterday
00:43:36He has to hold off
00:43:37The challenges here
00:43:38Of the Williams back driver
00:43:40Victor Martins
00:43:41And we jump on board
00:43:42With Victor Martins now
00:43:43Pursuing him
00:43:44Down towards the bank
00:43:45Turn 13
00:43:46This is where that front tyre
00:43:47Needs to work for Vashore
00:43:48And he's gone a little bit wide there
00:43:50Giving Martins the opportunity
00:43:52Tucking the nose inside
00:43:54But he looks like he's kept the MP
00:43:56Out of trouble
00:43:57From Victor Martins
00:43:58At the moment
00:43:59Ignore fourth and fifth
00:44:00This is the battle for second
00:44:02When all the pit stocks shake out
00:44:04And Richard Vashore
00:44:05Looks like he's done it
00:44:06And can head off up the road
00:44:08After Jack Crawford
00:44:09Crawford with the track position
00:44:11Vashore with the better tyres
00:44:12This is a typical
00:44:14Formula 2 feature race battle
00:44:16Richard Vashore
00:44:17Now giving DRS
00:44:19To Victor Martins
00:44:20Who's using that
00:44:21To close back in
00:44:22We come into another DRS zone now
00:44:24This is crucial
00:44:24For Richard Vashore
00:44:25He's getting a good exit there
00:44:27Will he do enough
00:44:28To break that DRS
00:44:29There is Victor Martins
00:44:31DRS wide open
00:44:32Closing in
00:44:33On Richard Vashore
00:44:34Who's checking his mirrors
00:44:35He's scanning them
00:44:36Where is Victor Martins
00:44:37The answer
00:44:38Right behind you
00:44:39As they come into that hairpin
00:44:40Yeah he is
00:44:41And he's going to be under pressure
00:44:43Down the front straight
00:44:44He's not quite close enough
00:44:46To Crawford
00:44:47To pick up the DRS
00:44:48He's going to have a job here
00:44:49To keep him behind
00:44:50Two of the most experienced drivers
00:44:52We have in the field
00:44:53Victor Martins
00:44:53In his third season
00:44:54Vashore
00:44:55In his fifth
00:44:56They know about these tyres
00:44:57They know about these cars
00:44:59And they know how easy it is
00:45:00To make the move
00:45:02If you have the car
00:45:03In the right position
00:45:03In the DRS
00:45:04But Martins doesn't
00:45:05Vashore
00:45:06With all the traction
00:45:07And with all the track position
00:45:08Needed to stay ahead
00:45:10In that DRS zone
00:45:11And Richard Vashore
00:45:12Does that
00:45:13Is a critical moment
00:45:14In this race
00:45:15Complete for Richard Vashore
00:45:17He stayed ahead of Victor Martins
00:45:19Now look at the benefit
00:45:20Of those super soft tyres
00:45:22On Richard Vashore
00:45:233.2 seconds
00:45:25Is the gap to chase
00:45:26Lap 25 of 28
00:45:28And now it's all about
00:45:30Getting after
00:45:30The net race leader
00:45:32Jack Crawford
00:45:32Alex
00:45:33Fastest first sector
00:45:34Of the race
00:45:35On the new super soft tyres
00:45:36Four tenths
00:45:37Out of Jack Crawford
00:45:39In the first sector
00:45:40Alone
00:45:41And with
00:45:42Lap 25 of 28
00:45:45Being put in the books
00:45:46There's a plenty of time
00:45:47For Vashore
00:45:48To go about it as well
00:45:49It's that middle stint
00:45:50On the medium compound tyre
00:45:52That's put him in this position
00:45:54Dirksen has been picked up
00:45:56For a pit lane infringement
00:45:58Sitting down in 13th place
00:45:59At the moment
00:46:00But the action is all here
00:46:01It really is
00:46:02The chase is on
00:46:04For Richard Vashore
00:46:05We look back again
00:46:07At this battle
00:46:08Which will continue
00:46:09To pursue
00:46:11We still wait
00:46:12For the likes of
00:46:13Beganovic and Esterson
00:46:14To come in
00:46:15And that will then
00:46:16Put Jack Crawford
00:46:17To the lead
00:46:192.7 seconds
00:46:20Ahead of Vashore
00:46:21But it's coming down
00:46:22With every single corner
00:46:24Alex Dunn
00:46:25Still chasing after
00:46:26Luke Browning
00:46:27Who is still
00:46:28Tracing after
00:46:29Pepe Marti
00:46:30These two
00:46:30Have been swapping places
00:46:32They have been battling
00:46:33And we could see more exchanges
00:46:35Again
00:46:35On this front straight
00:46:37No further investigation
00:46:38For Maini
00:46:39With regards to
00:46:40Moving under braking
00:46:41So that'll be
00:46:42A relief
00:46:43For dams
00:46:44As they continue
00:46:45Their race on
00:46:45It's been a
00:46:46Very
00:46:47Eventful race
00:46:49As well
00:46:49For Luke Browning
00:46:50Plenty of decisions
00:46:51To make
00:46:51And battles
00:46:52To be had
00:46:53Side by side
00:46:53Down towards turn one
00:46:54Arvid Lindblad
00:46:55Around the outside
00:46:56Of Gabriele Mini
00:46:57Great move
00:46:57That from Lindblad
00:46:59And he has gone by
00:47:00Gabriele Mini
00:47:01That move
00:47:02Had been
00:47:02A long time coming
00:47:04Arvid Lindblad
00:47:05Had been
00:47:05Very patient
00:47:06In his approach there
00:47:08Just working
00:47:09On Gabriele Mini
00:47:10For a number of laps
00:47:11He's now through
00:47:12Don't count out
00:47:13Cushmine in the background
00:47:14He's on
00:47:14Quicker tyres
00:47:152.3 seconds back
00:47:17Joshua Dirksen
00:47:18Right with him
00:47:19Has just set
00:47:20The fastest lap
00:47:20Those two
00:47:21On the same strategy
00:47:23As Richard Vershaw
00:47:24Are flying at the moment
00:47:25And they could pick up
00:47:27A lot of places
00:47:28If they can catch that group
00:47:29And we jump on board
00:47:31With Jack Crawford
00:47:33Where is Richard Vershaw
00:47:35Is the question
00:47:35There he is
00:47:361.8 seconds back
00:47:37Yeah
00:47:37Maini as well
00:47:38And Dirksen
00:47:39As you correctly say
00:47:40Chris
00:47:40Around three seconds back
00:47:42At the beginning of this lap
00:47:43From that group
00:47:44Of Gabriele Mini
00:47:45Lindblad
00:47:46And Dunn
00:47:47And they could easily
00:47:48Drive their cars
00:47:48Well into the points here
00:47:50If they have a similar
00:47:51Kind of pace to Vershaw
00:47:52Purple middle sector again
00:47:53For the Dutchman
00:47:55And he's heading
00:47:56Into that gap
00:47:57Isn't he
00:47:58So so quickly
00:47:59It's coming back
00:48:00Will Crawford be able
00:48:01To do anything about him
00:48:02Half a second more
00:48:03Puts Vershaw in DRS
00:48:05And then Crawford's
00:48:06Really got problems out front
00:48:07We could be in
00:48:08For a last lap
00:48:08Shootout
00:48:09Here at Jeddah
00:48:10Between
00:48:11Jack Crawford
00:48:12And Richard Vershaw
00:48:13Richard Vershaw
00:48:14Turns it
00:48:15Out of turn 27
00:48:16We have two laps to go
00:48:19Here at Jeddah
00:48:20And Richard Vershaw
00:48:21Is chasing down
00:48:23Jack Crawford
00:48:24He has used the alternative
00:48:25Strategy
00:48:26To move himself
00:48:27Up
00:48:28Into
00:48:28A net second place
00:48:30And now
00:48:31He has just over a second
00:48:32To catch Jack Crawford
00:48:33And he's three tenths away
00:48:34From DRS
00:48:35As Dina Beganovic
00:48:36Comes into pit lane
00:48:37Final pit caller
00:48:38Is Beganovic
00:48:39And it's between these two
00:48:41Crawford
00:48:42And Dams
00:48:43Coming into this weekend
00:48:44Without scoring
00:48:46Through the first phase
00:48:47Of the year
00:48:48He's managed to put the car
00:48:49On pole
00:48:50And he's driven
00:48:51A great race
00:48:52So far
00:48:52Will he be denied
00:48:54At the last
00:48:55By Vershaw
00:48:56The driver
00:48:57Who was fifth
00:48:58In the championship
00:48:59Last year
00:48:59Moving in
00:49:00To Aston Martin's
00:49:01Young driver
00:49:02Development program
00:49:03The American driver
00:49:04Is going to have to
00:49:05Repel
00:49:06On all borders here
00:49:08As the MP driver
00:49:09Just creeps
00:49:11Into DRS range
00:49:12And he's got three zones
00:49:14To do it
00:49:14On this penultimate lap
00:49:16Will he get it done
00:49:17On this lap
00:49:18Will it be a move
00:49:19Going on to the final lap
00:49:21Of the race
00:49:21Can Jack Crawford
00:49:23Put up the defence
00:49:24To hold off
00:49:25The hard charging Dutchman
00:49:27In the background
00:49:28It'll be
00:49:29Dams Lucas Oil
00:49:30Versus MP Motorsport
00:49:31Jack Crawford
00:49:32Versus Richard Bashore
00:49:33Who will come out
00:49:34On top
00:49:35We've had four different
00:49:36Winners in four races
00:49:38In Formula 2
00:49:39There will be a fifth
00:49:40Different one
00:49:41Between these two
00:49:42As we get ready
00:49:43To go head to head
00:49:44Alex
00:49:44Crawford shimmied
00:49:45Up against the wall
00:49:46Through the exit
00:49:47Of turn 16
00:49:48DRS open
00:49:49Looking over the rear wing
00:49:51Of the driver
00:49:52Who will lead the race
00:49:53When the pit stops
00:49:55Have fully shaken out
00:49:57We remain
00:49:57Esterson out front
00:49:59But he will have to come in
00:50:00And take his mandatory pit stop
00:50:01And there's the traction
00:50:02And surely this is going
00:50:03To be a drive by pass
00:50:05Down towards turn one
00:50:06For Bashore
00:50:06Looking back from Jack Crawford
00:50:08There is Richard Bashore
00:50:10DRS enabled
00:50:11And he will fire his way
00:50:13Through to the lead
00:50:13Of the race
00:50:14But Jack Crawford
00:50:15Trying to get back
00:50:16Down the inside
00:50:17Richard Bashore
00:50:18Has done it though
00:50:18From ninth place
00:50:20On the grid
00:50:20Richard Bashore
00:50:21Has fired his way
00:50:22Up into the lead
00:50:23Of the race
00:50:24A superb drive
00:50:25In the alternative strategy
00:50:27And Richard Bashore
00:50:28Has driven his way
00:50:29Through
00:50:30To the lead
00:50:30Of the race
00:50:31On the final lap
00:50:32Outstanding
00:50:33Outstanding driving
00:50:34Through the middle
00:50:36Of the race
00:50:36And he's going to clear
00:50:37Crawford
00:50:38This is when the move
00:50:39Was really already done
00:50:41He's just got so much
00:50:42More grip
00:50:43And so much more purchase
00:50:44Down towards turn one
00:50:46Crawford thought about it
00:50:47Back down the inside
00:50:49But he knows
00:50:49In his heart of hearts
00:50:50That he just plain
00:50:51Does not have the rubber
00:50:53Underneath him
00:50:54To do anything
00:50:55About that
00:50:56In the background
00:50:57Victor Martins
00:50:581.2
00:50:59Ahead of
00:50:59Fornaroli
00:51:00Cushmine
00:51:01Has gone into
00:51:02The points
00:51:02And he's
00:51:03Seven tenths
00:51:04Behind Mini
00:51:04As well
00:51:05But this has been
00:51:05Superb
00:51:06From Bashore
00:51:06Who will take
00:51:07The championship
00:51:08Lead
00:51:08Alex
00:51:08Certainly will
00:51:09Through the exit
00:51:10Of turn 16
00:51:11Plane sailing
00:51:12Now
00:51:12Glory mode
00:51:14To the line
00:51:15Put 1.9
00:51:17Seconds
00:51:17Into Crawford
00:51:18Who fought
00:51:20Valiantly
00:51:21Throughout that one
00:51:22And will score
00:51:23Brilliant points
00:51:23For dams
00:51:24Great points as well
00:51:25For Victor Martins
00:51:27But it's been all about
00:51:28The race performance
00:51:29For this man
00:51:30Returning
00:51:31To MP
00:51:32Where he's felt so at home
00:51:33Throughout so much
00:51:35Of his motorsport career
00:51:37And he's shown us
00:51:38Everything he's learned
00:51:40Richard Vashore
00:51:40With an outstanding drive
00:51:42Richard Vashore
00:51:44Through the final corner
00:51:46The streets of Jeddah
00:51:47Denying him a win
00:51:48Yesterday
00:51:49But when they did
00:51:50Richard Vashore
00:51:51Fought back
00:51:52And he will not be
00:51:53Denied victory today
00:51:55Richard Vashore
00:51:56Across the line
00:51:57He takes his first win
00:51:59Of the Formula 2 season
00:52:01His fifth win
00:52:02Of his career
00:52:03Driving
00:52:04MP Motorsport
00:52:05To a win
00:52:06And to
00:52:07The top
00:52:08Of the championship
00:52:09Standings
00:52:10Well done
00:52:11To Richard Vashore
00:52:12What a drive
00:52:13On the alternative strategy
00:52:15Jack Crawford
00:52:16Finishing in second place
00:52:18Victor Martins
00:52:19In third place
00:52:20What a battle
00:52:21Across the line there
00:52:22For the lower
00:52:22Point scoring positions
00:52:24But Richard Vashore
00:52:26Thought he was
00:52:26Denied victory
00:52:27This weekend
00:52:28When that happened
00:52:29He responded
00:52:30In the best
00:52:31Possible fashion
00:52:33With one of
00:52:34The most
00:52:34Superb drives
00:52:36I think we've ever
00:52:36Seen him do
00:52:37One of his best
00:52:38Victories
00:52:39And one
00:52:39That will go down
00:52:41In memory
00:52:41Miney
00:52:43Just unable
00:52:44To clear
00:52:45Mini
00:52:45For ninth
00:52:47Position there
00:52:47But a sterling
00:52:48Drive as well
00:52:49To move his way
00:52:50Back into the point
00:52:51To maximising
00:52:52That alternative
00:52:53Strategy
00:52:54But they could
00:52:55Not hang
00:52:55With Vashore
00:52:57Through the middle
00:52:57Of the race
00:52:57Eight seconds
00:52:58The gap
00:52:59Back to the
00:53:00Pursuing drivers
00:53:01On exactly the same
00:53:02Tire
00:53:02And exactly the
00:53:03Same strategy
00:53:04At certain stages
00:53:05Truly
00:53:06Truly
00:53:07Impressive
00:53:08Jack Crawford
00:53:09Got a great
00:53:09Start
00:53:10Gave
00:53:10A great
00:53:11Drive

00:53:40Yep
00:53:42Good days
00:53:43But

00:53:56Days
00:53:56I think
00:53:57Where you just
00:53:58Have to say
00:53:59I delivered
00:54:00The car
00:54:01That was
00:54:01Underneath me
00:54:02To the position
00:54:03Where it should
00:54:03Have been
00:54:04Someone else
00:54:05Has just
00:54:06Picked
00:54:06Something up
00:54:07By the
00:54:07Scruff of the
00:54:08Neck
00:54:08And there's
00:54:09Really nothing
00:54:09Else I
00:54:10Could have
00:54:10Done about

00:54:33Closing up
00:54:34Significantly
00:54:35After that
00:54:36Result
00:54:36Yes

00:54:47Performance
00:54:47From him
00:54:48Held
00:54:48Off
00:54:48Leo
00:54:49Fornaroli
00:54:49They were
00:54:49Actually
00:54:50Only split
00:54:50By 7 tenths
00:54:51Of a second
00:54:52Over
00:54:53The line
00:54:53It was
00:54:54Very close
00:54:54At the end
00:54:55Yeah
00:54:57I pushed
00:54:57My heart
00:54:57Out
00:54:57Right
00:54:58It was
00:54:59Non-stop
00:55:00No worries

00:55:07Nothing to be
00:55:11Nothing to be
00:55:12Ashamed about
00:55:12There
00:55:13From
00:55:13Jack Crawford
00:55:15It was
00:55:17Just
00:55:17Strategy
00:55:18From
00:55:18Vershaw
00:55:19And he
00:55:19Was
00:55:19Finding
00:55:20Time
00:55:20Where
00:55:20None
00:55:21Of
00:55:21The

00:55:21On

00:55:23Ties
00:55:23At
00:55:23The
00:55:23Start
00:55:24Do you
00:55:25Think
00:55:25There
00:55:25Was
00:55:25A
00:55:26Part
00:55:26Of
00:55:26It
00:55:26When
00:55:27He
00:55:27Was
00:55:27Denied
00:55:28Victory
00:55:28Yesterday
00:55:28That
00:55:29Almost

00:55:36The
00:55:36Time

00:56:21Beshore
00:56:21Huge
00:56:22Congratulations
00:56:23To
00:56:23Him
00:56:24That
00:56:24Was
00:56:25A
00:56:25Classy
00:56:25Performance
00:56:26From
00:56:27A
00:56:27Very
00:56:28Experienced
00:56:28Driver
00:56:29In
00:56:29Formula
00:56:30Two
00:56:30Who
00:56:30Used
00:57:00Yeah, great stuff.
00:57:02Forna Roli, that battle that we followed all the way through the race finished 5th, 6th and 7th for the various contenders just behind this little gaggle.
00:57:14So that was great to watch.
00:57:16It was great all the way through, wasn't it?
00:57:19A really entertaining race and always great to see a battle decided on the last lap of the race.
00:57:27And that's what it came down to. Jack Crawford in the end passed when Richard Vershaw chased him down, got the DRS down the start, finished straight.
00:57:36And Jack Crawford settling for second, but that'll give him confidence going forward in this championship, Alex.
00:57:43It will do. And a year that he will be looking to take home championship honours.
00:57:50It will. And let's hear what our winner has to say.
00:57:54Richard Vershaw is speaking with Billy Munger.
00:57:59Richard Vershaw, your fifth win in Formula 2.
00:58:03And you don't always do it the easy way this weekend, do you?
00:58:06Yesterday picking up the penalty after winning on the road.
00:58:08And today the alternate strategy resulting in your fifth victory in Formula 2.
00:58:13How are you feeling right now?
00:58:14I'm feeling amazing. It really feels like redemption.
00:58:17Yesterday I think we drove a very good race, hard fought battles, but unfortunately a penalty, because of that it didn't happen.
00:58:26But so happy with today. We were absolutely flying.
00:58:29And I have to give the credits to the team.
00:58:31They gave me a very good car and I'm extremely proud of them and myself.
00:58:35And MP Motorsport is a team that you have a lot of history with.
00:58:39How important was it to get back together, to reset going into today's race after the disappointment of yesterday?
00:58:46Yeah, I mean, we are feeling very well and strong together.
00:58:49So I think that helps.
00:58:51It shows today that we are bouncing back strong.
00:58:53And we're looking to do that for the rest of the season.
00:58:56And you've taken the championship lead with that result.
00:58:59So that must be really good for the confidence and boost you for the rest of the season coming forward.
00:59:04It's nice, but it's long. So let's keep pushing.
00:59:06Good luck for the rest of the season, mate. Congratulations.
00:59:11Well done, Richard Rishaw in the points every race so far this season, showing good confidence and great consistency.
00:59:19And championship lead of the Jetta, he'll take that.
00:59:22He knows well how long the series is.
00:59:26Only three races in to this, three rounds in to this 14-round season.
00:59:33He's got a lot more winning still to do if he wants to take home the position that he finds himself in now.
00:59:4053 points for Richard Rishaw.
00:59:42Pepe Marti up next in the championship standings after that one at 41.
00:59:46Vorna Roli just behind with 40 points.
00:59:50And they'll have to keep on pushing all the season long.
00:59:54Next time out will be Imola.
00:59:56What a different circuit that is than what we've just seen.
00:59:58Let's hear them in the cool-down run.
01:00:00What's clothes making, Tom Rana?
01:00:03The weight touched a little bit.
01:00:04That was good.
01:00:05That was good, Richard.
01:00:06I think I did 28-40 laps.
01:00:16What's they told me your lap time?
01:00:20You were pushing?
01:00:22All in, huh?
01:00:23Yeah.
01:00:24Me too.
01:00:24I was doing like 47-4 and they said it wasn't enough.
01:00:30I've been doing 47-0 the last four laps.
01:00:33Cheers.
01:00:36Oh, hey, this one could have peed.
01:00:47I really have to pee.
01:00:52I thought it was Browning Granny, but it was you.
01:00:55Huh?
01:00:56It was you.
01:00:56You have the same car now.
01:00:58Yeah.
01:00:59It's a bit tricky because at one point they were 2-3 behind me.
01:01:04I didn't know which one it was sometimes.
01:01:06Well done to the top three.
01:01:12Good to hear their thoughts and a tough feature race around here.
01:01:15Hot conditions out there and a very demanding circuit.
01:01:19So, good effort by all of them.
01:01:22Yeah.
01:01:23Air temperature dropping throughout the race.
01:01:26We're about 5.30 now local time.
01:01:28but still sits just under 30 degrees.
01:01:33It's intense conditions for these drivers to be pulling the kind of G they are through all 27 corners
01:01:40over a feature race distance.
01:01:43No power steering course available to drivers in Formula 2.
01:01:46So, all the energy going through the steering rack needing to come from the driver and you can see that they've worked out there, that's for sure.
01:01:53Absolutely.
01:01:54And Richard for sure making his way up to the podium along with the rest of the top three.
01:02:03Top three, Bruno Michel, I'm sure, enjoyed watching that one.
01:02:08Great race of two different strategies playing out as well, Alex, and always good to see when those two meet at the end.
01:02:15Sure was Bruno Michel checking in with Sebastian Philippe, team principal at ART with a man on the podium, of course, in the shape of Victor Martins.
01:02:24Good day for them.
01:02:25And let's see him wander up onto that third step.
01:02:28And here comes his driver Victor Martins onto the podium.
01:02:33His season well and truly getting started now.
01:02:35That's his first podium of the season.
01:02:38Jack Crawford getting Damned Lucas Oil up there for the first time.
01:02:42Aston Martin back driver as well.
01:02:44Big season for Jack Crawford.
01:02:46And Richard for sure taking his first win of the season, his fifth career win in Formula 2.
01:02:52Felipe Drogovic won the feature race here in 2022.
01:02:56What can Richard for sure do this season?
01:03:14Do you know what the fans are doing?
01:03:16If you want to see him?
01:03:17Aston Martin's continue for the season, all the news is looking from Britain.
01:03:19The Kingdom's title is the 10th of�brook.
01:03:20All over the last time, he's still a two.
01:03:21The Second wave has been over the last few years and the third wave event.
01:03:24He's still very few years.
01:03:25In mydomen, he's still a two.
01:03:26He's still very few years.
01:03:27He's still a two.
01:03:28He's still very few years.
01:03:29And he's still a two.
01:03:30He's still very much.
01:03:31On those who are red and white.
01:03:32To the third wave, he's still a two.
01:03:33He's still a three.
01:03:35He's still very few years.
01:03:36He's still a two.
01:03:37He's still a two.
01:03:38He's still a three.

01:06:41We saw him pick up front wing damage, which then led to...
