Strängnäs 2025 race recap!
New season, new car and a new series! We came into this years premiere very exited, but also prepared for surprises. This race was also located in the middle of an exam period, so a big shoutout to the Karlstad-based part of the team that managed to get all the preparations done by themselves🔥
R1, Saturday, started off pretty okay, since it of course takes some time getting used to race again.
Q1 - P4
Q2 - P5
The driving and feeling improved every lap, but in the beginning we couldn’t really figure out the starts. And when we finally did, in Q3, a race incident led to DNF with a broken wishbone😵💫 Then the rain came in perfect timing for the semifinal, which was a new experience in this car!
Q3 - P7 (DNF)
Semi - P3
The final was also wet, and from the 6th on the grid we managed to (finally) get a good start. Some great pace and a good joker led to finishing P3!!! This was a really great result, considering the challenges we’ve had throughout the day. It’s not over until it’s over🏁🥉
R2, Sunday came with better weather! And better starts. Great speed and clean racing led us to front row, total P2 coming into the final.
Q1 - P3
Q2 - P2
Q3 - P2
And the final was the peak of the weekend!! After a great start we were first into corner one, and led from there. Unfortunately a little mistake cost us the lead, but managed to keep the speed up and finished 2nd🥈🌟
We’re very happy with this start of the season. It feels good to be back in business, and we’re looking forward to the rest of the reason🔥
Thanks to the team and the sponsors for making this season happen!
