EURO 4 CHAMPIONSHIP

Race One (30 minutes + 1 lap)

Saturday, 21/06/25, 10.40, Weather: Sunny, 15°C

By the start of the first race, the temperature had risen to 15 degrees. The large field set off, and as usual, the first chicane formed a dangerous bottleneck. The field just managed to get through. But at the end of the first lap, there was an accident involving three cars. Nicolas was pushed and collided with Teo. The safety car took over the field until the cars were cleared. Shortly after the restart, there was another collision, and this time two cars were off the track. A third car, Vinci, pushed Elia, who flew straight into Bansal. Gone was Elia's possible top-ten place. The safety car took over the field again. Bader was now our team's only hope, and his chances of a top-ten finish seemed intact. But shortly after the restart, he fell back and headed for the pit lane with a flat rear tire. He had been hit by Powell. With only one lap remaining, Bader had to retire in the pit lane. He finished 25^th.

Race Two (30 minutes + 1 lap)

Sunday, 26/10/25, 09.30, Weather: Sunny, 12°C

A lot happened at the start of the second race, but none of the excursions off the track caused a safety car to be deployed. Elia was battling with Consani for 10^th place. Just behind, Bader managed to hold off Maccagnani. Nicolas moved up to 15^th place. An accident brought out the safety car. At the restart, Nicolas was battling with Savinkov, and the two drove side by side until they touched and both flew off. Nicolas was able to rejoin the field far back and continue driving. In the meantime, Elia had moved up to 9^th place. At the restart, he was surprised by Popov, and not long later, Consani managed to overtake him again. This left Elia in very good 11^th place. Bader was running in 12^th place, but Powell and Vinci found a way past him at the restart. On the final lap, Bader reclaimed 13^th place. When there was another accident shortly before the end, it was clear that the race would be finished behind the safety car.

Race Three (30 minutes + 1 lap)

Sunday, 26/10/25, 15.50, Weather: Sunny, 15°C

The final race of the season got off to a hectic start. Nicolas made contact with Ruta at the end of the first lap, and the pair flew off the track. The safety car had to be deployed. Elia had overtaken Anurag and passed Gomez, but the two reclaimed positions at the restart. This allowed Elia to drive cleanly and maintain a good pace in 8^th place. As he entered the chicane, Kostic came flying at him without braking and caught Elia from the side. This wiped out Elia's chance of another top-ten result and a rookie podium finish. Bader had moved up to 13^th place. He battled with Savinkov and ultimately finished 12^th.
Thus, an eventful season came to a turbulent end.
