3rd place overall in the International Esports Trophy 2025 Sweden, Kristianstad
Tough races & strong pace
Free Practice
In free practice, it was simply a matter of adapting to the setup and getting to grips with the car. I had great difficulty getting used to the unfamiliar brakes and spent almost the entire practice session testing different brake settings.
Qualifying
Qualifying didn’t go as well as I’d hoped. I was too cautious on my push lap and only managed to qualify in fifth place.
Race 1
The first race went really well for me. I fought my way up from fifth to second place in the 10-minute sprint race, securing my first podium finish and second place on the grid for the second race.
Race 2
The second race was very tough. I got off to a good start, but it wasn’t perfect, which meant I quickly got into battles with the drivers in 3rd and 4th place. The battles were very tough, sometimes even beyond the limit, which meant I finished the race in 4th place. The driver who pushed me off the track received a penalty from the race directors.
Race 3
Nevertheless, I had to start the third race from fourth place. The race went smoothly and there were no major incidents. However, I was unable to make any significant progress and finished the race in fourth place.
This meant that I finished third in the overall championship, just one point behind the runner-up.
