Grand uh the grand finale the last race of the event and in just a week’s time we’re back in quate again for the second event of course this double header here at the quate motor town so the the circuit has been amazing to us like the facilities and uh and the
Circuit itself with the layout is brilliant the drivers literally love this place and uh it’s uh one of of those circuit very technical very difficult with so many corners so yeah we just have to to wait Improvement for the guys lap by lap Race by race well from your lips to the
Driver’s ears because I believe we’re just about to go down to the preg grid interviews with marello py here we are back on the grid ready for the third race of this uh weekend of the formula 4 Saudi Arabia we are going as always trying to get some information some
Uh strategy from all the driver of the category starting from the PO position we have guancho bro again guancho you’re starting from the first row which is pretty good this time you’re starting on the right side starting from the pole I see you’re running fresh and tires so
How are you expect to start for the first lap how you’re going to uh bring your strategy on out the checked flag uh I think I will do a good defense and hopefully I don’t make any mistakes and maybe take a buum okay really good job then uh cross
Finger and good luck for your race going on on the grid we’re going for the second position before getting into the car we just have to be really quick uh so fala cabani I saw you on the previous wave you had a quite a big momentum flying over how’s your back
First of all back bum and feet are a bit sore but uh it was a nice flight okay you landed and you you are back ready for uh this uh third race of the weekend so uh what are your expectation at this time you’re starting in the first row so
Yeah definitely I mean the goal is to take uh P1 into first turn uh try to get a better uh start uh thano and maximize the position that I’m starting in uh we got some quick people right behind me uh but I need to focus ahead and not on my mirrors okay really
Good no flight this time hopefully not I don’t have a boarding pass okay let’s going on with h huasi that is cleaning her visor just to get ready for hello are you ready for the race yeah yeah you stting P3 actually with the reverse quid for you is quite strange
But you can take advantage to get another Podium of this incredible racing weekend you doing yeah I think it’s good for me I I just need to have a good start and look ahead and and yeah finish the race uh hopefully on the podium so yeah okay thank you am and good
Luck let’s going on to he some voice from the other driver that all of them now are turning on their engine because we are really close to the start of this race so sakare amosi uh actually not really lucky race the previous one you had uh some trouble
With the tire puncture and so on but now you are really close to the podium one one more time so how you are going to uh use the strategy for this race I mean uh first of all I want to have a good start then uh try to win the
Race okay Sak really good luck for your race and let’s give it all let’s going on on the grid let’s have a talk and a chat with Omar alderan really unlucky Omar on the previous race with a small crash under safety car now you are still close to
The uh top position so do you think this time you can really handle it third times the charm okay so uh good luck Omar you really deserve a great result this time let’s have a talk with uh Andre Andre had a great Podium on the previous
Race so really good job and solid race your previous one are you ready for another Podium attack of course of course after last race I feel really confident and I think you can manage to score another Podium now do you feel you’re getting better and better the
More you’re driving this car yeah of course every race I feel uh small improvements and uh you know racing is also very different to carting uh the size of the car so I feel like every race I’m improving okay good luck Andre and see you later let’s go to have a
Little chat with Kil Cusco that that just uh finished talk with engineer Philipe so hello we are just going for the third race of the weekend the previous one you were really close to get a chance to win the race but actually then you had a a
Small momentum with alasi uh which will be your strategy for this race do you think you still have a chance to go on just keep it calm and try to go in front as much as it’s going to be possible okay thank you real so it’s really old so enjoy the race
Bye-bye thank you very much marello and thank you to all of our young drivers down on the grid as you heard from Kill kov we’re just about to go on track and I believe at 12:22 which the talk the clock has just ticked over to we will be
Have a green pit Lane and let’s quickly run through the starting order while we wait for that to happen on Pole Position we have John sha a probio in the car number 77 the red car driving for the Philippines in second position we have Fel alaban Fel alcaman of course driving
The silver number seven car ham alabasi rounds out the top three in the eight purple car from the UAE sag Al takes up the top spot on the third row of the grid he he is followed of course by Omar aled Alani that’s quit versus Saudi for anybody who’s paying
Attention Andre pvic is followed follows uh closely behind in the red number 49 car with uh uh Krill kov in the blue number 23 car driving for kakhan rounding out the top 10 we have Oscar wz Solomon zenfari and Fredo Al Rafi abdulaziz Abu zanada Lara villis Al Al
Cabasi Abdullah Al cabes jabber althani round out the rest of the grid and unfortunately jabber is not able to be here this weekend as he has other commitments in his schooling well I heard some engines revving up their engine uh I heard some engines revving up there Luca and I’m
Sure we’re out on track and indeed we are with the red number 77 car of drono probio coming into the leading the procession around the formation the sighting lab a bit of bad luck for jono in the last race he didn’t manage to get away but uh not a problem at all cuz
He’s back on the grid now and he’s ready to go yet again what’s going to happen Luka coming down into the first La into the first corner now we’ve seen that 1 a and 1B are overtaking opportunities what’s your prediction yeah um I spoke to wancho and uh unfortunately in the
Previous race he wanted to warm warm up the tire he knew it was important he knew it was it was crucial and by doing that he lost control uh in the warm-up lab in between turn one and uh 1 a and unfortunately this is why he had to stop
And uh now he’s really pumped up we explain again how to warm the the tires in the best manner also in the safe manner for him you know to make sure he can has he can have his best opportunity to to have his race and definitely he
Doesn’t have so much experience in terms of starting uh standing starts and he has to to try his best well speaking about Corner 1 a and 1B let’s have a brief look at the circuit one once again from the drivers or from the bird’s eye point of view here we go so amazing
Circuit after the start we have taii can 1 a 1B like you said and after that is a really really long straight where the guys can take sleep stream try overtaking into two then up heill and down ill between 3 four very long and fast action between six and after
Especially especially seven because after seven there is a really right and left right and left um circuit uh and the sector of the of the of the circuit that uh is really high speed and uh before the last Corner then we can have an overtaking opportunity is 5.6 km which is really
Long one of the longest circuits uh generally and uh it’s nice because it has a really fast section to start with with a long straight line then very technical and then fast Corners before uh the the last one one which is more of a over overtaking opportunity so
Elevation changes there there is a bit of everything honestly yeah I walked but I didn’t walk the track Luka I have to I won’t tell a lie I drove around the track a few times okay yeah my excuse was it was too cold to walk but I don’t
Know if that was true or not so i’ I’ve gone around a bit as well and you’re right really the you don’t see it on the camera but the the elevation change is quite incredible what does that do to the driving line I mean if it’s not a
Flat Corner if you’re going uphill instead how does that change things so especially at the beginning it makes things uh more difficult because the first few laps um during practice you really have to understand where is the line so it changes because um whoever is able to understand uh the racing lines
The sooner then he can start you know pushing harder and harder and he can start on the right foot let me say but is also one of those places uh like we also have um in in Europe can be let me say I don’t know Pima or spa places with
Elevation changes that sometimes during a race weekend you never stop learning so it’s nice because uh uh every time you find slightly better places where you find better grip better visibility overtaking opportunities and so a circuit like that is one of those places that uh uh you never stop learning lap
After lap thanks Luka we’re on the grid now this is not the start of the race this is just the start of the formation lap in a few seconds we’ll get underway there you go green flag lap as we come around for the cars to finish warming up
Their tires once they stop on the grid at the end of this lap we will have all five lights go on and as they extinguish we will be on way for the third race of the Season Luca talking about the track talking about going uphill let’s talk
About the wind how is it affecting these young drivers cuz there’s a lot of wind here but is it consistent or is it changing direction Direction all the time um so basically um like everywhere we go normally the wind changes always around lunchtime is uh more or less what
Happens basically you wake up in the morning and you have a certain wind and uh wind around lunch time normally it sort of stops because is the time that is sort of starting to change the direction and then uh this is more or less the time now so now the wind is
Less compared to this morning and um we will see if maybe for the next race we will have again a bit of win so this is changing because uh from One race to the other the condition has slightly different and you have to readjust what you have to readjust you have to adjust
Your breaking points because at high speed having or not having the wind might change a little bit your top speed so you can break in some places little later some places a little uh earlier and uh in the high speed if you have side wind that can affect a little bit
The balance of course the more sophisticated the car the more affect the balance these cars are formula cars and uh with wings and underwing and the the flat floors not flat floor but steer the the floor with extractor so it does affect of course it’s uh one of those uh
Junior formulas that the aerodynamic is uh is sophisticated but of course it’s manageable from the tire from the the drivers at this age of this experience so it’s everything related that would say I guess that makes a lot of sense and you can see them now weaving to warm
Up their tires as Lucas told us time and time again trying to beat it into my head the first thing you have to do is the longitudinal braking to get the rims well to get the brake calipers and the brake uh brake discs up to temperature
Which warms up the whims so warms up the inside of the tires and now at the end of the formation lap you start to get into your weaving as you you can see of course the cars now coming around through turn 16 17 and 18 but just
Coming into the last sector of the race of the lap I should say the formation lap that is and down the back straight they will be going at any moment any moment so that means very very shortly indeed we will be lining up on the grid
For the start of the third race and I am for one extremely excited to see what is going to happen between John Cho brobo fisel Al cabani and ham alabasi at the front of the Grid at the beginning of this race Hamer of course a lot more
Experience than some of the drivers on track perhaps even some of the ones in front of her so she may try to make a move in fact I’m certain she will try to make a move at the beginning of the race and she needs to focus now on getting a
Good launch and getting away from the line as fast as possible Luca FIP if you could talk her to her right now if you were in here with the radio what would you be telling her so um after you know a very strong Pace uh that she has shown over the
Course of weekend just uh focus on your things and um you know have a clean lap the first one and then um make sure that your pace uh will be the key you know to to get a strong position at the end of the race
Now would you advise her to look in her right hand side mirror or her left hand side miror because on the left she’s got Saga almash in the blue number five C driving Kuwait he is determined to win a race this weekend and on her right well
Just behind her I should say I suspect he’s going to go to the right is Omar alderin ald aldani and he he’s told us all live on TV that he’s going to win One race this season this this event so he’s going to be making a move I’m sure
As well H she has to look both sides because they are both of them very aggressive and uh you know they will uh they will try their best this race okay here we are two lights three lights four lights all five lights are on and as
They extinguish we are on the way looks like Saga got a great start he’s already jumped he’s pass the number seven car in front of him the number eight car looks like she’s got a good start as well but she’s holding off she’s got to defend
Now against cill and of course Omar as well number 77 number 11 I should say Oscar WS like he’s trying to make a move around the outside of turn one gets the inside line through Turn 1 a 1 B of course he’s on the back foot again but
That was at least three wide there coming through 1 B with the mid pack it looks to me as if there is a light blue card trying to make a move coming down into turn uh into turn two is there going to be some action here on screen
Just now so amda there is amda is in one Sager in P2 and there’s a contact between John show brobo and that is a white card that might be Oscar wz as we come up over the crest down into the carousel 3 4 5 6 here we are the long
Sweeping left hander we’ve seen overtakes here before on Omar aldin Alani is he managed to keep his place he is indeed managing to keep his place and is that a white car overtaking a blue car just ahead of Omar aled alderan it may indeed be and we’re going to have a
Quick look back at the beginning of the race to see EX exactly what’s happened so far here we are that’s uh that’s JN show probably your in second position cuz ham alabas got such a good start she was up into first right away saer just behind him contact there between number seven
And number seven it is and joho probio that number seven would be fisel Al cabani I believe spin off there that’s number 99 that’s abdulaziz Abu zanada but no worries folks he got going again he’s experienced hand in these F4 cars now having uh almost two events under
His under his belt and you can see the cars continue to go around track down now into the back straight I believe we’re coming up on we have on screen Omar Al Alani just briefly a moment ago he is determined to win a race this uh
This weekend and this is really his best opportunity to do so but he’s got to put his foot down to the floor if he wants to make it happen on screen you can see ham alabasi still in first place the number five car sag Al up into second
Place the number uh the number is that an orange number 52 is that Solomon ZF fari how on Earth has he managed to get open to there Solomon zenfari starting P9 up into P3 on what is now the second lap of the race just behind him we have
A white card that seems to be the number 11 of Oscar wz and two cars back is his teammate number 10 Fredrico Ali these two young gentlemen are the drivers to look out for this weekend cuz they’ve had a fantastic battle the whole event
Now let’s have a look back to the FR G hamda pulling out a bit of a lead perhaps in front of saer saer maybe deciding to hold his car back have a bit of a breather lap and go again on the next on the next round uh the contact between
Cars number 77 and number 70 number 7 is under investigation at turn two number 77 of course JN Cho number seven fisel Al Cavani that’s Philippines versus Saudi Arabia the green number 77 and the silver number 7 coming down now on screen we have the orange 52 though
Solomon zanar who has had a fantastic start to the race up into P3 I believe yes indeed he is in the orange two car driving from Morocco this weekend and I’m sure every weekend of his life so far down into the pit Lane now though we
Can see of course the family and friends of the drivers all looking on to the live stream as it seems like there may be somebody coming into the pit Lane just briefly down we are back into turns 9 10 and 11 before the right hand sand
Section looks like there may have been a bit of damage uh to the number 99 car he spun off previously at turn two when uh when uh when there was the contact between uh number seven and 77 and he may have had a bit of damage and now has
Unfortunately ended up having stopped let’s have a replay again now and see EX exactly what’s going on here we are car number 99 unfortunate there very unfortunate there for abas Abu zenada just lost it coming out of the corner which corner is that there Luka this is turn two so it’s uh you
Arve from the fastest section of the circuit and uh he lost it under under breaking and uh fortunately then uh he span the car and now we have safety car while Oscar already got the place on tari and now they will go to safety car condition just in time
I think we have to review this but at just in time I think Oscar Woods was able to overtake uh Zari into the last Corner into turn 20 zamari must have had maybe a little mistake I guess exiting turn 19 so that gave an opportunity to Oscar WS that he
Had tremendous bad luck in the in race one and two and finally he’s looking for a Podium finish in race three well I wish him all the best and I hope that everything was okay there and that he just managed to make the move before the safety car board came out of course
Everything on the TV screen is not 100% synced up so we are at a bit of delay but uh race control is I’m sure already reviewing the the incident and everyone will make sure that exactly what needs to happen happens replay of the race start coming up now guys in just a
Moment so let’s uh let’s uh let’s go quiet and see exactly how the first few seconds of the race turned out look at that jump away ham had a great start the car to her left which was uh not able to get away quite as quickly that’s the seven of FIS Al
Cabani seemed to drop back quite significantly and that gave saag Al M and uh and the other drivers a chance to get straight up into position you can see three wide there once again going through the exit of Turn 1 a into the entrance of 1B fantastic driving from
These young drivers giving us a brilliant spectacle this weekend coming down the back straight now or the the second straight I should say we can see there’s going to be more action coming into turn two in just a second this is of course the the the second corner of
The track and Luka really a fantastic overtaking opportunity right there yes and uh there was a fight in between wano and FAL the two guys starting on the first row and unfortunately they collided in turn two and ah it was was real shame for for both because wano had
An amazing start it was able to keep the lead into one and 1 a 1 B and uh then amda took the advantage and back for another replay of the start just now all four lights are on five lights are on and as we get away we can see from the
Front angle exactly what happened you can see Sager dot to the right to get around F Al cabani and the other cars taking advantage as well ham alabasi fantastic lunch CER actually really really a very good launch but uh he he’s managed to take that second position and
Uh well done to him of course driving for Kuwait this weekend it’s a fantastic to see a Kuwaiti driver on the on the top step well on the on the steps of the podium back down into uh turn two once again here let’s see exactly what happened from a different angle SAA
Tries to have a look down the inside not quite enough space hamers defending the 77 and5 car Omar Al Alani defending Andre Petrovic just behind him contact there between seven and joho joho bro that’s of course five abani and Jano coming down through the carousel now this is really a beautiful
Sector Luka you might be right this might be the best corner on the track 49 there that’s Andre Petrovic from Russia joining us from Rotex this weekend and uh really it’s a fantastic great start and it’s unfortunate that we’re back to safety car but don’t worry ladies and
Gentlemen we’ll give laps back at the end of the race so that we can get more time on track it looks like abdulaziz AB out just putting his Ste wheel back into the car now so that the marshals can recover the vehicle and bring it back
Into behind the safety into the uh back behind the saf service barrier and then we can go racing again very very soon indeed so the positive at least is that wano is able to to stay in the group even if uh there was a contact between him and
FAL but uh I definitely have seen that wano and FAL they are both still on track I really hope that both of them they don’t have significant damages on the car the impact wasn’t big to be honest it was a bit of whe to Wi whe
Wheel to wheel banging and um then at least you know with the safety car compacting they can uh you know join the group and uh and race to the end of the race I hope that uh I hope that works out for everybody involved as you you
Can see the cars now having just come down the back straight coming onto the main straight at turn 20 everybody weaving a little bit to try to keep their tires warm as one as possible so as soon as that we get underway once again their cars are ready to go they’re
Crossing just in front of the commentry booth right now ladies and gentlemen and really got to say the cars look beautiful Loca with the rap and all the sponsor logos on the cars what do you think of the color do you have a favorite color H you know
I I don’t know I love the yellow car to be honest I really love it I also like uh how the purple fits the two alesi um also their helmets and uh I I I just like um the the whole uh package of the purple plus the the sisters and
Their helmets I think it looks great have you seen the purple cars at night uh yes and it’s so much better it’s it’s bright you know it’s uh it really stands out but also I I I I like the yellow a lot I think it’s uh very racy and uh you
Know all of them you know the brand new cars brand new cars um this status a technic pelli and we had the Shakedown on the cars uh for the trophy event in backra all the cars are brand new all the cars with the same setup same settings and we um through
The testing decide what we think uh is the best setup for for the drivers in terms of durability of the tiles of the weekend in terms of performance and also in terms of driveability uh to find for them you know a balance set up we we listen to all the drivers opinion and
Try to find the right balance and uh we have a a really big group of Professional Engineers that uh they have a a briefing after every session so they internally discuss and uh and come together to the final decision on what is the the setup for everybody so at the
End uh it’s uh equal uh in terms of performance so the best driver is the guy that uh that is supposed to win the races then you know there are also other factors like uh uh you know starting positions and so on and uh Race Craft
And and everything that is involved in a race weekend but we want to have the talent that is display in uh in these races but L I’m always hearing that uh different d drivers have a different preference of over steer and under steer so is are you still able to adjust
Something on the card to give them a little bit of the feeling they prefer so yes the the engineer they have a little adjustability in order to to give them the best feeling uh they can play for example a little bit with the pressure and with other things that we give a
Little bit of of freedom but just like you say to adjust the balance but once uh we have uh the car in the right window then it’s just a matter of uh finding uh finding you know just fine tuning and uh and at the end you know
They can um make the car suit in the uh driving style but also it’s also up to them sometimes to adapts themselves to what we think is the best setup so message from safety control ladies and gentlemen the safety car is in this lap and indeed we’ve just seen the lights be
Extinguished the the safety car is proceeding back to the pit Lane and leaving hamda alabes in the eight purple car driving for UAE to control the grid you can see her holding everybody up warming up her tires preparing for her run if it was you luuka Fleep where
Would you put the gas down well it’s too late you don’t get to make the decision because hesi has already put the gas down as she comes down the back straight at Full Throttle Down into turn 20 in just a moment we’ll see exactly what’s
Going to happen but it looks to me as if Sager almash is going to try and make a move up the inside perhaps or perhaps he’s not quite close enough but just behind them the orange and red cars of drun of Andre Petrovic and Solomon Zan
Fari tried to make a move as well but they well the Moroccan driver managed to fight him off and coming down into the main straight now we’re going to see what’s going to happen between Sager and hamda this very close indeed KNX WS as well very close indeed in fact the top
Five cars are all so close together they could all they could all afford to make a move coming down into 1 a and 1 B but of course these drivers now have a lot of experience at this track under their belts and they’re biing their time to find a a secure overtaking position
Where they don’t risk their position in order to gain another one but that’s really a delicate balance Luka you’ve got to risk something you can’t risk nothing at all the the group is very compacted all together with amda still in the lead but Saker Ameri she’s literally ah close to her really really
On uh on her tail so uh but also Oscar GS is there you know you cannot make a like a single little mistakes that you have somebody the inside of six is Oscar’s going to make a move on Sager almur indeed he tried but it seems like
Sager managed to hold him off because the white car is still just behind the blue car on the right of your screens ladies and gentlemen that’s very good news indeed for Kuwait as they come down now through turns uh 7 8 9 10 and 11 these beautiful fast swch back coins
They’re actually full speed here Full Throttle even on used tires at least if you’re Luca Felipe as they come down now into the second sector of the track Andre Petro really coming into his own now starting to challenge Solon Zan fari in the orange 52 of course Andre in the
Red number 49 as they come around 12 13 14 15 and 16 this very complicated series of right-handed Corners amda did an amazing middle sector and uh she was able just to pull a little bit away which is crucial in the very first lap because you want to try and just uh uh
Uh you know have the group a little bit more stretched this is what you have to try and do and of course you know uh uh Sager is still able to benefit from the Sleep stream oh there’s going to be something happening here Andre is right
Up behind the orange number 52 gets a bit of a better exit I think he’s going to have a much better exit in fact coming out of turn 20 he does indeed and it looks like he’s going to be able to duck uh dive out to the outside at any
Moment to try to come alongside the orange number 52 car the orange 52 defening very heavily indeed that was one and maybe perhaps two moves even coming down into Turn 1 a and 1 B looks like Andre has backed off a little bit cuz now he’s got to worry about the car
Behind forri Ali driving for the UAE in the number 10 car the white car on screen at the moment ladies and gentlemen he looked like he was going to try and take advantage of the action which we have seen Andre do previously in the last event in the last session I
Should say where he managed to overtake two cars K kov and I believe Solomon Zan fari as well but what’s Happening Here looks like there’s a move again between the orange and red cars of Solomon xanfar and Andre Petrovic coming into turn two something is going to happen
Between these two young gentlemen very soon indeed as we come down through the carousel turns 3 4 five and then the sweeping Leander really Andre can’t afford to make a single mistake here because he’s got Fredo alrai in his mirror just behind him kill kov kill of
Course the CK champion last year I believe and well Fredrico alberi has already won One race here he won a race back in Bahrain he’s done F4 in UAE before and really he’s a fantastic young driver powering through the Kuwait motortown circuit here in of course Kuwait and for the formula for Saudi
Arabia Championship we really enjoy having all these young drivers on screen Luca Philip where is there going to be a move where is is Andre going to buy this time making move or is it in fact going to be a move between Omar Al alzani in
The yellow car on screen and kill kusov just in front of him in the blue number 23 car so now um Zari in P3 and P4 sorry was able just to relax for a oh goes wide he hits into that curb that set two drivers uh two drivers flying in the
Previous session as well that may have caused some damage to his car at least gave the driver a bit of a shock and he’s had to back off just a little bit but he was right up behind Krill cat which was a fantastic fantastic fight in the making but ladies and gentlemen I
See just in front of me it’s not on camera just yet but on the with my own eyes I can see the red car of Andre Petrovic trying to make a move on the orange number 52 of Solomon zenfari around the last Corner he’s right up beside him ladies and gentlemen right up
Beside him and he doesn’t quite manage to pull us off but he looks like he’s got a lot of seam he’s Lo like he’s got the speed he’s diving up the inside now you can see on the right hand side of your screens ladies and gentlemen Andre
P right behind the orange number 52 car can he make a move he’s going around the outside he’s going around the outside at turn one he’s going to get the B line through Turn 1 a does he manage to hold it off no not quite Z Solomon Zari keeps
The the Serbian driver just behind him through 1 a and 1 B but Soloman zenfari is in trouble here because Andre Petrovic has really come to life in this the third race of the weekend and we can see there’s going to be some Fantastic action now on track between these two
Young drivers ham alabasi managing to maintain her lead it looks like Saga is doing a good lap time in fact he was 2 t a second faster on the last lap than uh than ham was and the Gap now only 7/10 of a second between the young two young
Drivers but really at the moment the battle on screen is between Solomon zire and Andre the Gap as they cross the top Finish Line under 210 of second ladies and gentlemen but Andre’s got to look out cuz as we said before Fredo alai is just behind him and I’m sure he’s
Waiting for those two drivers to make a mistake so that he can pounce and secure two positions for his uh for his championship competition so now we have a situation with the top three that they have an advantage and they have a gap and uh they are really pushing hard all
Of them with amda making the pace she’s really pushing her head down and uh she’s been really consistent as well in in her lap times but Saker Alm moeri and Oscar vs they are right behind they are also have a bit of benefit from this whp
Stream but they them three they have now a gap to zamari that is a little bit struggling this race and trying the outside in this part of the of the circuit is really fast Andre and he has to try and stay very very close to him he will have an opportunity into the
Last corner is faster in this section of the track he looks close to Luka I got to say he looks closer than he ever has before can he make move indeed he does make a move straight up the inside of turn 20 fantastic move there from Andre Petrovic can Solan zenfari do anything
About it looks like he might have gotten a bit of a better exit and Fredo alrai ladies and gentlemen Fredo alrai is going to take advantage on both of these young drivers and he may well make a move down into turn one but Solomon zanar definitely got a better exit than
Andre did through turn through turn 20 and oh that’s terrible news for Fredo Al Rafi he’s got to now fight as we said sorry that’s terrible news for Andre Petrovic he’s got an out fight of course the number 10 car of rrio Al Rafi and is it’s really it’s really close between
These three young drivers let’s see how quickly the the Gap is between them less than a second less than a tenth of a second between Solomon and Petrovic and less than two10 of a second back to uh Fredo Al Rafi as we come down in into
Turn two now with the three cars in question of course we can join now by a fourth car that’s kurl kov I believe trying to take advantage of this situation as well so we’ve got now four cars I believe fighting for for third position so we have to say that suan
Zfar is really good in defending he’s a little bit uh slower in this part of the race compared to Andre but uh is really good in the defending manuver well let’s have a quick look back at that overtake man there we go gets down the inside
Throws it a little bit too far Solomon Cuts back to the inside gets the better exit it and manages to retake the place coming into turn one of course Andre trying to trying to block him out there and Fredo Al on the left hand side of
Your screens and the white car tries to take advantage on both the drivers but Solan zenar comes out of that particular battle on top yeah I mean it was a really nice battle also tough but but fair I have to say because Andre want him to close the door but then when you
Realized that uh sulan was there he decided then to go back to the right hand side and zamari then had the inside so it was nice tough but but fair I liked it well well ladies and gentlemen quick message from race control it looks like there’s a 5-sec penalty between uh cars
Number 77 and car number seven car number seven the one receiving the penalty as we come down now is there some action on track that we need to take care of indeed there is ham alabasi is still in the lead and Andre petroi and uh Soloman and just behind her are
Still battling it out for for fourth position here we go is there going to be a move it looks like he’s so close he’s going to try the outside Lane again he’s just not being given an opportunity to go down the inside of turn one which is
Maybe where he wants to be LCA do you have to be on the inside of turn one to make a move there yes otherwise you have to get out of turn 2B closer with the higher speed which zamari has been really good in uh coming out fast from
Uh uh 10 sorry 1 b h which leads to this long and is able to defend here so the best chance that Andre has is still in the last corner like he tried before well look at this ladies and gentlemen Omar Al Alan trying to make a move as
Well and I believe K kotov is just behind him trying to take advantage of the whole situation and back to the front of the grid just briefly ham alabasi just set the fastest lap of the race with the 202 934 and Sager almash responded by going two10 faster than her
In the first sector of this lap they are really pushing hard the top three and uh but the the pace amda is doing is really difficult to to match I have to say and um she’s trying to pull away and she’s doing it like she hasn’t done a single
Mistake she’s driven the best I ever seen from her she’s really doing amazing job she was really focused I’ve seen her looking the data with Brandon her engineer they really knew where to improve she already did an amazing job the previous race and uh she she
Understood where she had a a little bit of margin and I’m sure I understand that uh she just clicked and it’s going to be difficult to beat her today indeed it is but is she pushing a little bit too hard is she going to hurt her tires for the
Last race I think she’s looking good in tires also uh she has a very smooth driving she’s very sensitive oh oh oh oh oh Andre Petrovic coming down into turn 20 makes the move the same move he made just a few laps ago but is he going to
Get a better exit this time is he going to hold on to it and keep Solomon Zari just behind him Solomon now having to battle with Fredo F alfi may just make this move happen between Andre Petrovic and Solomon zenfari but zenfari gets such a fantastic exit out of that corner
Is he going to be able to overtake again is he going to do it on the outside not quite ladies and gentlemen this is good news for Serbia Andre pic in the red number 49 up into fourth position that’s fantastic fantastic racing between all three drivers and now Solomon Zari in
The orange number 52 car is fighting it out with rrio out of five federo had a very good exit he can try in the inside in turn two he will try definitely on the inside there we go ladies and gentlemen what’s going to happen now he tries to
Make a move not quite close enough as they come up into turn three down into the carousel four five and six ooh Andre pic is so close oh oh oh Solomon Zan fari jumps over the curve into to the inside off turn six and inside turn six over take a second one
This weekend LCA is is on the outside Andre and he’s able to keep it in front of him what a move from both of them what a beautiful very fair but hard racing I loved it it’s fantastic to watch it really is fantastic to watch and uh that red car
Is really going around the circuit as fast as it possibly can but the orange number 52 of Solomon zenfari is not happy and is charging back up to the front but he’s got to contest with Fredo alafi just behind him and I mean let’s have a look at the lap times here got
Andre Petrovic his best time was 204 49 a 204 315 for Solomon a 20423 253 for Fredrico and a 2041 167 for K kov I mean they’re all within two10 of a second of lap times at the moment and uh perhaps the guy at the back perhaps kill kov is
The fastest of them all if he can just find a way to get past rrio alrai and start challenging the two drivers in front of him so uh yeah now Andre he has to focus in front because uh he was able to pull a little bit of a gap we could
See that he had a bit of margin a bit of Bas while in the background we have seen Omar trying to overtake am and they are both side by side now it’s fantastic racing that’s the right on the right hand side we’ve got the yellow car Alani
On the left hand side the purple car the number 88 car of Amna alabas as they come down side by side through turn one and one a and that’s not it’s 1 B sorry and looks like ham alabas managed to keep him just behind but that’s fantastic fantastic to see on screen as
Well I got agree with you the purple and yellow cs together look even better than they do apart and coming down now the main the second straight we’ll see if there’s going to be another move cuz the drivers are really neck and neck and neck there’s a battle for fourth
Position with three with four cars there a battle for uh it would be eighth position between the two cars of Omar Alani and ham Al has to come up looks like Omar’s made a better line through the turn three managing to get in front
Of him uh for the uh for the Carousel of three four and five what’s going to happen at the sweeping Leander of turn six we’ve seen two overtakes here already and maybe there will be a third it looks like there’s a car just behind ham alabas a white car perhaps a silver
Car that’s trying to take advantage on the outside of turn six up the inside of turn seven do they make contact no it seems like the driv managed to give each other enough space to continue racing it’s really fantastic to see on screen as we come down now through the flat out
Section of 7 8 9 10 and 11 before the before the right hand section of cor is 12 13 14 15 and 16 on screen at the front of the screen you’ve got the yellow car of om Al Alani the number 18 car managing to lead the possession of
Number 8 88 car the purple car of ham alabasi who is just behind them well it’s none other than is that K kov yeah so uh no that’s number seven car of fisel Al he’s also in the fight but it looks like there may have been a
Bit of contact because his damping cover seems to be just slightly Loose as they come around now turns uh 18 and 19 down to the main to the back straight it looks like solman Z power has dropped back signal significantly from Andre Petrovic while the orange car while the
Silver car of sorry the white car of fuku alai is right up behind the orange car of Solomon zenfari we will see very very soon indeed that something special is going to happen here but ladies and gentlemen I’ve got some news for you there’s a 10-second penalty for uh for
Solomon zenfari for exceeding track limits so he’s got to get away from the car behind him the car number 10 of rrio Alf if he wants to maintain his position in the final excuse me in the final standings so basically by regulation we have uh um the the race control that
They have the opportunity to look in every single Corner the track limits and when the car goes out of the track of uh behind the white line with all four wheels yeah so it me to keep a position for the moment all four wheels then it’s
A track liing when you do it three times then at you have a warning at a fourth time you have a penalty so we’ve seen Zari you see in this corner we just have seen which is turn four unfortunately it’s been systematically pushing the limit a little bit too much sometimes because
You have a Crest and you have a deep it’s really hard to see from the driver’s perspective exactly where the line is but uh I mean you have to be responsible for that as a driver so we have to try and help him to not do this
Mistake again in uh the the the next race also because this has been the with more of a green light time so everybody had more opportunity maybe to also do the track limit so we have to make sure they they they are aware of that yes of
Course and I think the drivers now after a couple of races here at the Kuwait monan have of course come to grips with the circuit and now can give us a true display of their talent once again ladies and gentlemen from the top we have H alabas Saga alash Oscar W Petro
Andre Petrovic and Fredrico alrai P Petrovic and alrai are still fighting with kill kuskov for that at Fourth position and I’m sure it’s going to be a fantastic rice but unfortunately Solomon ZF fari has the 10c penalty and there’s an in investigation for the cars number 11 and 52 for overtaking under safety
Car a little bit squirly there for Andre pic coming out of what would be what corner is that there Luka so great race again for amda and deserve win for for her she dominated the race fastest lap she won the race and she had the
Strongest paas so um yeah I mean she she is not going to start from the front in the last race of the the weekend but she’s a contender she’s been uh super quick while uh sakare gp2 and uh the Gap looks a little bit uh big also because I
I guess in the last couple of lap maybe uh he backed off we have seen that he had no more uh Pace in order to fight with her and finally a Podium position for Oscar Woods like you said say there is an investigation between 11 and 52
Which is Oscar V and zamari for overtaking under safety car like we have seen briefly shortly before the safety car came out uh Oscar Woods was Al alongside when uh the safety car um indication came on the screen so uh is one of those situation where there has
To be looked on the video if uh the um overtaking maneuver was completed before um the safety car signals were on truck or after sometimes you know it can be very marginal and sometimes is not even um a reaction time that the driver you
Know uh can have and we will see if we are to that point or uh or maybe just more of a easy um easy situation to to double check with the steers later well I’m sure the is already working on Luka we’ve gotten a few messages messages
From them or from race control I should say during the course of the race and let’s just quickly run through the finishing order and then I have to pop down to the podium just after mcheli gives us the uh post race interviews so once again from the top ham alabasi
Sager almers Andre Petrovic Oscar wz Fredrico Al Rafi Kil kov Omar Al Duran Amna Al cabasi Solomon zenfari fisel Al cabani abdulah alabasi Laura villes Jean probio and abdulaziz ab I’ll be back with you just briefly ladies and gentlemen in the meantime Luca Philipe is going to take very good take very good
Takee what a race from uh from amda wow I mean uh she had a Podium uh this morning and now she had a solid win a really solid win solid performance and um she had a good start and she was able to get uh the first
Place going from the exit of turn one going into two and she won in a a nice fashion solid win fastest lap strongest Bas uh she just went away left the field and she looked in control all the time and uh I’m really really happy to see her happy and Rel with her
Father and uh this is the you know the nice uh side the the sweet side of Motorsport you know family and friends involved uh in uh the difficult days and but also in the nice moments like like this one we see also Brandon is engineer and uh definitely I’ve seen them working
Very well together very nicely they’ve built a very good relationship between Brandon am9 amda all three as a group as a team and uh also the way they were working hard uh before uh the start of this race they were looking into little details in order to improve her driving
Which was already phenomenal but uh yeah and here we have the hug uh with Amna uh that unfortunately she had not a great race today but definitely she must be happy for her sister so amda she worked hard on her driving and uh she had a
Little bit of margin to improve in a couple of places and I’m sure she did because she just dominated the race and uh she did it in style definitely we’ve seen her with her father with a sister and also Saker Ameri in P2 second position congratulating with there and
Um I think they both of them must be very happy then Saker at the end of the race I think he so what a nice feeling to be a proud Dad what’s better you know proud dad with a um happy girl this is a fantastic picture we have in front of us
So this is uh the nice side of Motorsport definitely a very nice race because it was a clean green race mostly uh we just had a a safety card at the beginning but this created you know a pack and a group and especially uh doing all the race under the green it
Gave the the drivers opportunity to really display the their performances so classification here we have it I’m kui winner of today’s race three and Saker moseri P2 again Amazing Race from him like a really talented young guy Andre Petrovic another Podium so two podiums today for him good job Oscar WS in
P4 finally uh from um Oscar Woods in P4 so after two difficult races finally Oscar was uh able to um to have a good race and uh score good podiums then Federico Al refi in P5 strong day for him after a win in race two Kil kov sixth position Omar alderan
After a very hard fight with Amna Al kui and in P9 sulan zamari who have been penalized with a 10 seconds penalty for track limit so unfortunately for him he lost his uh fifth place and uh FAL Al cabani position 10 we have seen him
With bit of a damage on uh the dumper cover so we had a bit of a contact at the beginning of the race position 11 for La laa Villers and position 12 for Abdullah alesi the brother of the alesi sisters and position 13 for wano proo from Philippines starting from po position
And then abdulaziz Abu zanada who unfortunately had a spin and created the the safety C right at the beginning of the race what a fantastic race today for race three stuff we can see the replays from today so much fighting so much going on here we have
Faal and uh one chocol liing and uh un unfortunately when uh Abdul Aid abuad lost the car and created the safety car then we have amda at the front trying to pull away from Saker and Omar losing track position after a mistake going on the curbs Mar
Is a fighter and about the fight what a fight between these two Petrovic trying twice the inside in turn 20 to zamari then zamari defending brilliant amazing defense maneuver from zamari but then finally uh had a very good base Andre and managed to get uh the podium
Position and here we have a really happy amda a very deserved winner of today fastest lap dominating the race and uh I think uh she did her best and she could have done any better so the start was definitely the key Point uh of the day because um we
Had uh a good start from the PO sitter guancho in the red car one show had a good start but uh faal on the right hand side of the screen didn’t so definitely FAL should work better on his start while on number five in the light blue we have Saker and
Amda in number eight already fighting for the top positions in the white car we have uh Oscar W trying to come through the field and now we see amda that she’s able to have a good exit and take the lead great stuff from amda and amda
Going into turn two in the lead and then we have Saker in the inside and FAL colliding with wano and both of them losing ground losing positions then uh this is the fight uh we have seen with Oscar WS at the beginning of the race was really fast
And uh he went up to third place after overtaking Andre Petrovic and then after overtaking zamari as well um we see again from the Drone so slow start from zamari in the silver car while very good from wancho and behind him we have amda alui that is in second
For the moment then we will see amda preparing the exit and then cutting to the inside Crossing and having a better exit really fast exit for her and uh Saker in the light blue taking a slip stream of wano and then sending it breaking late into the inside of turn
Two and then after this corner these two guys at the front amda kuizi and sakera moeri never left their positions anymore uh having you know a really really strong and consistent base we have seen amazing battles in the group especially for uh third and fourth positions and it has been really really exciting
Race so shortly the guys will uh will go um on the podium and uh definitely uh we have had several different drivers uh standing on the podium um with Saker is his second time already uh after um yesterday’s Podium also for amda she had two podiums today
And uh if uh Andre Petrovic is confirmed turn on the podium then also for Andre is twice on the podium while um uh this morning we also had feder rifi as a winner in what we call his race two and yesterday’s race one winner was suan
Zanar that had a really um a really good start and a really good opening of the lab and uh he took advantage from the fight of uh the two let’s say white teammates yesterday in the race one with Oscar WS uh after he made a slight mistake in
The restart then he had a collision with federo arifi uh with Oscar out of the race federo penalized and uh then um suan zamari that was already in the lead then he was able to pull away and win the opening race of the of the weekend we
Just remind you that the first race is also the race that gives you the full points in the system while race two race three um with the reverse grid uh starting uh grid then gives you the half point system and then the next one which is
The race four again we will have full points so uh the next race is also one of the most crucial races of the weekend because we have the full points because it’s the last one of the the the race weekend so definitely everybody body everybody will try his best is the the
Grid will be determined by the fourth fastest lap so the grid will be a little bit U different that what we have seen because we will have uh few guys that uh because of track limits or because of red flags or other reason they didn’t
Set enough lap time so we might see a bit of a different scenarios with some fast guyses starting at the back some at the front and we might see a lot of action uh definitely we hope that uh we can have uh a nice and clean race like
We just had that has displayed a lot of fighting a lot of fun a lot of a lot of entertainment for us but I guess a lot of fun for the drivers as well because what I’ve seen it it it was like a really fair and nice um fighting on truck
So we we couldn’t have a better place a better circuit uh qu is uh one of uh the newest circuit in the Middle East and uh with the longest configuration that is more than 5.6 kilometers so it’s really long lap 20 corners and many different configurations when uh you have uh the
Longest layout which is the one that we are doing now you can have more of a shorter National layout which is for example uh what is the touring cars that we see on trucks that are going to do it shortly and uh and then we also have a
Other options to make uh a different configuration um this is the the one we’re using is the most uh complete and uh but all of them are really exciting and uh and uh and also difficult to drive I’ve been myself uh driving quite a lot uh in the testing
Before the Race weekend because uh we have been doing some Shakedown with the with the cars every car that uh is new or is being repaired we have a shown in order to double check that uh uh the conditions are 100% that uh we don’t have any technical issues and that all
The cars they are equal in terms of performance so this is something that from the championship it has been uh phenomenal uh very big organization in order to have all the cars set ready and um up um up to their best from the technical point of view so so it has
Been a lot of action it has been a long week for us with three days of testing plus yesterday practice qualifying and the race one and then today Saturday is U the day of uh the races so with three races is a lot of action a lot going on
And the guys they have also to manage the tires because uh for once the weekend starts so from the Friday morning from the practice you have the opportunity to use two complete set of tires and you have to manage the tires through the the both day so some will
Have the better tires for uh um some of the races where they have maybe better starting position and maybe uh use the more uh used set for the races where you’re starting backward the Grid or upside down you know you can do your strategy from this point of view with
Your engineer the team is composed by uh a group of two drivers uh with the same colors of the car and you have one race engineer and one data engineer plus uh uh we have uh uh many mechanics and uh extra engineers and the chief engineers
And a group of uh four coaches dedicated to all of them we also have a physiotherapist and a trainer that uh is helping all the drivers to stay fit between the races and before the races we help them to learn more from their body what is needed for their preparation Before the
Race in terms of warm up and uh activation some they need to relax a little bit more some they need to activate their body uh more so we try and help them discover and understand all the these processes all of them are very young very talented but uh uh most
Of them with um still not so much experience so we try and transfer as much as uh experience that we can from uh from ourself um so we are really proud on uh on these guys what they are doing what they are displaying and with some of the
Drivers that uh they arrived with no expectation and suddenly they finish on the podium and they have uh um the opportunity to fight with the formula 4 cars uh which are the best uh category in the world for uh junior formulas uh when you are dreaming about becoming a Formula 1
Driver so this is the first step of uh a long journey that can lead potentially to Formula 1 but for sure it will lead to a lot of fun a lot of excitement so uh it has been an amazing race we will uh uh meet again for race 4
Which is later in the afternoon thank you for being with us and uh we have a final race of uh the formula 4 Saudi Arabia Championship here from Kuwait Motor City thank you very much
