Thank you hello and welcome back to Kuwait motor town here for race 4 in the mot Town Gulf Prix of course with the formula 4 Arabia cars on track once again and as always you have myself Aaron Thompson and Luca Felipe commentating hello everybody everybody

Ready again for another Race So we had a very very interesting race three just a few hours ago Luka we saw finally the Kuwaiti in the light blue number five car Sager aleri done his uh done his Podium cap and get on top of the top

Step of the podium do you think we’re going to see a repeat of that because the KU is back in P9 for this race by virtue of his fourth fastest lap from qualifying or is Solomon Zan fari and Andre Petrovic at the front of the grid

Going to dominate this race so you know it’s really difficult to say because we have uh uh many drivers that have the real potential and the opportunity to to score a Podium finish or win the race so uh I think it’s not going to be easy for

Sakare but after such a strong weekend and a really um I would say like a dominating win like he could have a shot again but he has to to fight for it yes indeed and let’s go down to the preg grid now for machala bess’s preg grid

Position on the grid we are talking with Jabar hello Jabar how are you ready to go for the Last Dance okay so again getting better and better little by little every race is a little bit faster what about this one I mean all the people in this part of the grid of

Starting with you st so you are with the same strategy you think you can gain some position uh hopefully but um since I’m starting last I’m probably the calmest person currently I think that’s uh the most uh advantagous thing about my my own position now okay good luck Jabor

Yeah that’s good Lu sakir you have done a really good job today so keep enjoin your home track so let’s go on to get some word from fala cabani from Saudi Arabia falas got one Podium today so this time we use tires FAL what what about your

Expectation from this race uh it’s going to be some nice fighting I think all the quick guys are up ahead um everybody wants to go for the win so I expect some uh some tough battles and maybe some face safety cars thank you fal good luck

So it’s really all from my side you can go ahead enjoy the race you very very much Mello that’s the last time we’ll hear from Mello from this weekend unfortunately but he’ll be back very soon for the guitar golf prey in just under a month’s time that’s the

14th 15th and 16th of March down at the LEL in International circuit in qar in just a moment ladies and gentlemen we’ll be getting way in in fact in exactly one moment at 11:52 the pit Lane will open and the cars will proceed on track for their

Sizing lap they will go around the circuit one time and stop in their grid boxes after they’ve stopped in their grid boxes for a period of 5 to 10 seconds you will see the green lights go on and as they go out the cars will go

Around the track one more time for the formation lap at the end of the formation lap all cars will stop in their grid boxes for the last time of this weekend and as all five lights go on and then extinguish you will see us go underway for race four here at the

Mototown gulf Prix and in just a moment solons and far in the orange number 52 car will take us away for the start of the race we saw in race three Solomon struggling a bit on some very used tires and it seems like to me at least like

Those look in a bit better condition Luka what do you think think yeah sure uh top five drivers they have very fresh tires actually the tires from Petrovic are basically brand new and uh but you know all of them they have very good tires so I expect a fierce fight uh between uh

Turn one 1 a 1 B between uh those uh guys that um you know they are basically saving those tires for the last race so it means that uh also you are putting a lot of uh uh effort to make sure that for this race you have uh everything you can in order

To have a an opportunity to win and bring home as many points as you can so when you do that then it means the the pressure and the tension is uh is a little bit on your shoulders and he is rising up between these guys and uh

Let’s see what uh they will deliver lever let’s see indeed cuz this is the last chance they have to impress us this weekend before we move on to theq golf Prix in just under a month’s time coming down on track now you can see the Silver Bullet of the silver number seven got

Fantastic race from him last time around to hold on to third spot ahead of Fredrico alberi and I think I heard you mention that Andre Petrovic is going to be on new TIR so he’s going to have a very interesting race as well but let’s have a quick look around the circuit for

One last time this weekend yeah he a is a real real nice circuit really amazing so after the start we have to try and stay outside if you want to be in the inside for one B which is the Shane before this very very long straight tless lip stream attack in turn

Two then three four down the hill and watch out don’t open the line too much in six because you may give somebody a try into the corner then uh in this very fast and long section where you have to carry a lot of speed 19 flat out or

Almost flat out and then heartbreaking into the last Corner down the hill and then into the finish line thank you very much Luca another brilliant lap around of Kuwait M Town there we can see of course the driver is just catching up to you coming down the

Back straight now let’s have a quick run through the starting grid before they take position on the grid itself in first position on Pole Position we have Solomon Zan fari in the orange number 52 car driving for Morocco alongside him Andre Petrovic we know Andre is on

Basically new TIR so it’ll be very interesting to see what happens here between the two drivers in the top two spots Kur kov and Oscar wz are on the second row of the grid and they are followed by fredero Al Rafi and hamda alesi Omar alderin and fer Alini the

Saudi drivers take up position seven and eight was Saga aleri and Lowa villes round out the top 10 P1 is Abdullah Al cabes mp12 abdulaziz Abu zanada while John sh robio and Jabar Alani round out our grid and unfortunately ham alabasi can’t be here today cuz she’s in Las Vegas for the F1

Academy but she’ll be back for qar ladies and gentlemen it’ll be fantastic to see her back on the grid as soon as possible as you can see though all the is taking position here for the end of the sight uh end of the uh sighting lab

And in just a moment the green lights will flash at the front of the grid and when that happens we’ll have one more lap around the track one last opportunity to get every degree of temperature you can into your tires to warm yourself up and prepare yourself

For the start of the race there you go green lights are on and the cars are way down they go the main straight now everybody we’ve been already trying to get that longitudinal force that latitudinal Force I should into their tires to warm up the exterior of the

Tire LCA Philippe of course coach me on exactly what to say here this weekend LCA last time last opportunity to get a good start off the line here is there anything they need to be doing differently it is a little bit later in the day 2:00 is going to be the start uh

Do they need to consider cooler temperatures or warmer temperatures or anything like that so um they have to think about the procedure because uh um these cars they have three pedals like uh like a regular car with a manual gearbox of course the gearbox is uh the

Sequential paddle shift so you use the clutch only to start or to stop when you stop in the garage or if you spin you have to engage the clutch to keep uh the engine on so uh what happens is that everybody uses the left foot to break so

Once the start is done and you move your left foot onto the braking um so basically the fill with a clutch it is something that you only need for a proper launch for a proper start and uh but that is crucial because uh uh that can really make a difference from uh

From a good race and a bad race so what we teach them to the guys to have a good launch is uh that you stay um when the third light or in sequence go on then you go flat out with a throttle and then with a clutch you start to feel where is

The biting point so this is means that you start lifting the the clutch a little bit until you feel the car is sort of trying to move then from then on you just wait with a clutch engage that level until it goes green not greens but

Light off so it means you start the race in that phas you have two ways it release the clutch one way it’s uh quite quick so not instant but in within 3 4/10 of the second so you try and make a little bit of winds spin but not too

Much and then you release uh the clutch fully and uh and then you you should try and stay flat out you’d have to have a very little wheelpin in order not to risk stalling the car which means just uh you know reps RPM goes to down and

The engine is off you don’t want to do that of course but uh on the other hand you don’t want to release the clutch too slowly because this uh in might affect more than anything your uh reaction time so you have to be reactive very quick

And that will give an advantage in the first uh few meters um and that’s it really having a good start is crucial for these guys they know it so every time they go and they are behind the lights uh you know the heart is pumping

Up hard uh because you know that you you have to do it right yes indeed as we come down the back straight now we can see all the cars coming around turn 20 on screen there ladies and gentlemen Omar alderan in the yellow number 18 car fantastic race from him last outing to

Hold on to second position and uh score a lot of points there for Saudi Arabia alongside his comrade Fel alaban in the number seven the Silver Bullet who secured third position as well all the cars now joining us on the starting grid for the start of the final race here

This weekend and in just a moment we will be underway as you can see it seems as if everybody is just pulling up into their final positions now at the back of the grid and in a moment you’ll see the lights go on once we have all five

Lights on and they extinguish we will be underway so bear with us for just a few more seconds before the start of the race 2 3 4 five lights are on and as they go out we are underway looks like maybe a bit of a jump start there from

The green car at the back of the grid but a fantastic start from the red number 49 of Andre pvic who’s launched himself up into the top spot and secured it before they even reached the first Corner as it looks like we’re going too wide with Omar alderan and perhaps that

Is the purple number eight of amda alabasi and the silver number seven of fisel alaban as we come down now the second straight into turn two you can see Andre Petrovic trying to break the toad that’s two moves there from Petrovic as he goes back and forth

Trying shake off the orange number 52 of Solomon zenfari down into turn two we come with Omar Alid aldani looking for a move on the inside deciding against his K I believe that’s Kel kov tries to make a move as well but he’s just not quite

Close enough to the the white number 11 number 10 of Fredrico alfi he’s sandwiched in between two white cars there is the number 23 of K kov in front of him he’s got Fredrico alfy behind him the Austrian the Austrian of Oscar wartz is number 11

Car what a start from Oscar Woods Oscar Woods really made a a very good start uh but these five guys at front they all have uh uh fresh tires new tires and especially Petrovic had a fantastic launch in the very first uh 10 meters he was able to go alongside zamari and uh

Make his stick on the inside so uh really good stuff for him that he has basically brand new tires basically brand new tires and that’s what he used to cut of B himself up into first position but Solomon zanar is an experienced hand in these cars and is

Not going to let him get away with that easily at all we’ve seen already that he’s fighting his way back looking for position at turn two earlier in the lap and holding on as close as he can here and in the first lap of the race but it

Does seem as if Fredrico alrai is closing in on the orange number 52 of Solomon zanar and may try to make a move on this lap or the next lap as we come down into the final corner of this first lap of the final race we can see ham

Alabasi got an excellent exit through turn 20 and she may be able to make a move on the silver bullet of Fel alaban coming down the main straight now you can see everybody starting to section over into turn one they come down into

Turn one through Turn 1 a and 1 b h the tucking in behind the silver number seven of fisel Al cabani coming on the exit now of Turn 1 B we can see the procession moving down the second straight into turn two this the next overtaking opportunity see a hard

Breaking left-hander up the hill into the crest down into the Carousel of three four and five a very interesting section of track and ham alaves having a look on the outside here at turn two but not quite close enough she may be able to get a better exit though and switch

Back onto the inside at turns three four and five that would put her on the outside of turn four if she makes that maneuver not quite close enough but she’s going to switch again and have a look up the inside of turn six and just behind her in the light blue number five

Is sagra aleri who’s going to turn try and take advantage of this and go around the outside at turn six that’s a move we haven’t seen yet outside of turn six looks like you can do it anyway at turn six that you feel like yeah so I tried

But he had to back off and now Amash is really really close to FAL FAL we have seen him struggling a little bit with a grip both in turn 20 and also EX in turn two uh but he was good so far defending but uh now they are losing a little bit

Of uh of time compared to the group ahead pushing really hard the the first the first five guys uh we see some purple sectors coming up here and there and all together they come in a in a group is so nice to see them battling closely means that uh really the level

Of these guys is uh is really equal coming down the back straight now you can see the red number 49 of Andre Petrovic leading the way ahead of the orange number 52 of Solomon zanar and just behind them the number 10 the white car of Fred rrio Ali looks to my eye at

Least that Fredo Ali is closing in on the orange number 52 of Solomon zenfari as they come across the start Finish Line the difference between the two cars 6 of a second just behind them as well is kill kov only 459 495 a second and in

Fact the fastest man on track at the moment with the 203 225 Krill finding his time in sectors 1 2 and three where he sets a personal best a 34 208 a 43 811 and a 45 206 F ta lap there from Kill kov as he comes around and

Challenges of course Fredo Alber for that third position you can see how closely matched all the cars are as they come down the second straight now into turn two nobody close enough to make even a a look at at an overtaking procedes to come up over the hill down

Into three four and five anybody trying to make a move here would have to be a lot closer than 4 T of a second away to make it tick as we come around the uh swiping SL sliding left-hander of turn six Luca flep where can Solomon zanar

Try to make a move on the man in front of him Andre Petrovic cuz he’s 610 of a second behind and where can he find his time and catch up to him well they are all uh all five all four or or six even in a very similar pace and uh when the

Gap between the drivers is so close is really difficult to make a move you have to uh maximize uh uh potentially a mistake from the guy in front try and stay close to him and induce the guy in front uh induce him to a little mistake

And then maybe try because uh until you don’t have a drop off the tire is really difficult especially the top four they so close Oscar it looks like he made a slight mistake in the first sector the opening sector of this lap because he lost a little bit of contact but then

For the rest of the lap it was okay it was quite fast so um let’s see maybe just sometimes a little bit of a curb or a wheel sping or gear change so it’s still in the Sleep stream so you can still um get close to them but uh the

Lap time are very consistent all together within few T of a second at 202 950 for patro at 203 232 2031 165 or 203 222 203 452 everybody in the top five is within a couple of tents of a second away from me other as they come down now

With the number 99 of abdulaziz Abu zanada and the number n of Abdullah kabi making moves down into turn one and one a and 1 b as the orange number nine of Abdul Al Ki seals the door on the green number 99 of Abdul Abu zenada and at the

Same time another kabes is making moves on track this is amra Al kabi in the purple number eight car gaining one position on the silver bullet the number 7 of5 Fel alaban here at turn two coming up over the pressed and down into turns three four and five this Carousel

Section of the track as they come back into the sweeping left hander of turn six it looks like H Aly has sealed that position and behind her now Saga almash is’s going to start challenging the Silver Bullet for the seventh eighth place position uh that he now maintains

Coming into the flat out section of the track now this is turns 8 9 10 and 11 all the way with your foot through down to the end of the floor Full Throttle all the way down into turns 12 13 14 and 15 the right-handed section of the track

Where’s the breaking point here for turn 12 Luka so for turn 12 uh you don’t really break uh when you arrive uh under there is a bridge um when you arrive under the bridge you have a lift and you have a partial lift that you go from

100% of throttle down to 50% hold from the entry to the Apex and when you are at the Apex of 12 you can go back flat out and then you do 13 flat out and when you are at the Apex of 14 you have a very slight touch on the brake down to

Fifth and then back on power for uh turn 50 is uh is Andre managed to car out a little bit of a lead for himself perhaps not he was about 9/10 of a second in the last lap and a little bit less now8 9/10 of a second this time around it seems

Like Solomon is hanging in there although Fredrico Ali all over the back of the orange car the last time around he was 6 of a second behind him now he’s 49 of a second behind him finding his time seemingly in the second sector where he was about a tenth of a second

Faster than the orange number 52 coming down the second straight now it seems like Fredo is getting closer and closer but he is just not quite close enough to make a move on the Moroccan driver not at least at this opportunity as they come up over the crest of the hill and

Down in turns three four and five this a fantastic section of the track we’ve seen again and again and again as we Andre Petrovic now leading us around in the red number 49 car Andre having driven a fantastic race so far got an excellent launch at the beginning uh at

The starting lights and he’s just LED from there trying to build a bit of a lead from himself at the moment as we said a 885 Gap from him to Solomon xanfar but Solomon is very fast indeed his last lap 20393 Andre’s last lap with two a 3113

So they’re within uh two hundredths of a second of each other and they are pushing hard indeed as we see morning from race control for car number 99 that’s the green car of abdulaziz Abu zanada for track limit multiple times this warning has come out now is the

Message so he’s not got a lot of opportunity left and he’s fighting at the moment for for position with Abdullah alabi in the orange number n Castle he’s got to watch out for that as well well I mean this is a very intense race and uh so far clean race uh a bit

Similar to what we have seen uh in the opening of the weekend but the difference is that uh the drivers position are a bit reshuffled so um it’s good to see that um we have different drivers that are uh able to to stay within the top position and having those

Six guys they are literally within 2/10 of a second uh all all them all six and uh this means uh really they are pushing each other as hard as possible um you cannot do any mistake because now they are so close that a single mistake you can drop one two positions easily yes

And we’ve seen it before where somebody was challenging for position and the guy behind him took over two cars in front of him and really Leap Frog his way up the order and it does look like however that fredero Ali and that white number 10 car is getting closer he’s decreased

The Gap 2462 of a second which is only uh only a gain of uh maybe couple of hundreds of a second here but the closer you get of course the the easier it is to make an overtake and uh 4 seconds that’s about the kind of margin you’re

Looking at where you can start to see an opportunity come to life yeah the other thing they also have to yeah to be aware of is uh the track limit because when you have uh like potentially a green race like this you might have to watch

Out and watch out indeed is the word at the moment as the green number 99 of abdulaziz Abu anander is under Fire from the red number 77 of Johan Cho robio coming down the carousel now joho looks like he’s going to switch back and have

A look up the inside at turn six can he make a move stick no he can’t he doesn’t have enough momentum to get through and it looks like jabber Alani is putting his hat in the ring as well for that position as we come around turns 17 and

18 now into the final section of the track yeah so regarding the lead group uh we now have Federico IFI really really close to zamari and while Petrovic is is really pushing hard at the moment while in this other group we also have a fierce fight with both wano

And Jabor as well trying to to gain a position over abdulaziz abuan coming down the main street now you can see the red number 45 the Serbian driver Andre Petrovic leading us here with four laps left to go all he has to do is hold on

For four more lapse uh but Solomon zenar is the man under fire at the moment that orange car on the right hand side of your screens ladies and gentlemen is being clouded by the number 10 car the Frederico Ali driven white vehicle just in the middle of your screens at the

Moment is he going to be close enough on this lap to have a look up the inside at turn two the Gap as they cross the start Finish Line 432 of a second the lap time difference less than that I believe only 300s of a second with uh zenfari doing a

203 not uh not uh 633 the only slow but uh was that Zan fari over steer yeah fed just when he went on the curb literally he had the rotation of the car that uh you can really U really even hear the the screaming of the tire but but he nailed

It like he didn’t have to correct much it was just like a a rotation of the curb when there is the compression but uh I mean it’s one of those things that uh when you are a driver and you are focused it’s like a dance but looking

From the outside you know that is not an easy thing to do this fight now really starting to Advantage Andre pic who has gained a 1. 1472 second lead over the men behind him so this is of course fantastic news for Serbia and will give uh give him an excellent opportunity to

Maintain the race lead as the orange and white cars fight for second position and just behind them oh some out for on the the curb out wide on the curb there and is he going to maintain his position or will he lose momentum will Fredrico alberi be able to capitalize on this it

Looks like Fredrico is very very close indeed coming down the back straight into the ultimate corner of the track will he have a look up the inside decides against it tucks in behind the orange car and he’s going to have such a fantastic launch off the exit of this

Corner slipstream the whole way down the main straight and maybe make a move into turn one seal deal through Turn 1 B is he going to have a look is he going to peek out or is he going to maintain in that position looks like he’s going to

Keep himself tucked in behind the orange car there and try to slip Stam all the way down to turn two such a such a huge Advantage this will be for him if he can do this uh just right he’s going to position himself perfectly for the perfect overtaking opportunity coming

Down into turn two and it seems like that’s exactly what he has planned tucked in behind the orange car following him not allowing him to break the slipstream There He Go he’s making his move he’s going to go around the outside of turn two can the orange

Number 52 push him out of just a little bit wide while leaving him space to keep racing pushes him out all the way off track there as they go down the up over the crest down into Carousel through three four and five and that is a lost opportunity there for the white number

10 car of fredero alrai so now it looks like uh zamari has a little bit of under steer in the corner so you can see that he’s going a little bit wide from the middle to the exit while uh federo is more of a neutral car you see the rear sliding a

Little bit but it seems like a little faster at the moment so for now yeah we see zamari that in the middle of the corner it’s a little off the line and it goes over the exit Cur big big lunch so we know that these

Curves uh are okay for GT cars but of course for formula cars uh uh if you go with uh the car in the middle of of the curb underneath the bottom of it is not ideal because you have basic basically two wheels outside and also federo does

The same thing two wheels on the outside of it and two wheels on the curves and then uh you have the the monoco that is bottoming uh at the the you know at the bottom the mono that’s bottoming at the bottom look okay as we come down the

Back stet now let’s have a look into turn 20 with the car number 11 that’s Oscar warts driving for Australia Oscar not the best weekend once again I mean he has the car under him he has the pace he’s showing time and time again but he just gets really unlucky with some of

These little scraps and that may have frustrated him uh this weekend but not to worry he’s back on track pushing as high as he can top five finish if things stay as they are and I’m sure he’s not intending to let K kov get away with fourth place easily at all at

All yeah um two laps to go so uh if you want to do you want to do it you have to do it now because otherwise uh uh in the last lap then you know if you are in front then uh you will defend in any ways you

Have coming down now through the car carousel J three four and five you can see on track the positions remain the same with Andre Petrovic leading us around and Soloman zanar and Frederico ADI still battling it out for second position while KL kov and Oscar warts fight themselves for fourth and fifth

Coming around turns seven now and then into the flat out snaking section of turns 8 9 10 and 11 we can see that Andre Petrovic has lengthened his lead to 2.86 seconds his last lap at 203952 while Solomon zenfari just behind him did a 20441 interesting low is Fredrico alori

Did a 210 of a second better than that better than tman a 204 377 so fedrico all over the back of that orange car despite both of them going out on various laps and having various uh excursions over these over these curbs uh they are continuing to fight and

We’ll see that at any moment as they come down the back straight now there may be an overtaking opportunity here at turn 20 as Luka has said two laps left to go so come on Freddy if you’re going to do it it’s the time to do

It is very Clos in the meantime Petrovic he has done wow a fantastic race so far one lap to go really perfect driving for him so far this is really exactly what he wanted his weekend to end up with as well he had a a tough start to the season last

Uh last weekend but he’s put it all together and improved and improved and improved every single race I think he’s actually been on every single Podium with his consistency and now he’s up there on the top step and I think this is going to make things very very very interesting for the championship

Standings indeed as we come down the second straight now you can see the orange car of Solomon zanar in second position just behind him the number 10 car Fredo Al rafide ladies and gentlemen these two the championship leaders in the championship order and they may just make things very interesting indeed for

Us as fro alberi is going to have another look very soon indeed as they come around down the carousel 3 four and five sweeping left hander of turn six is next up it’s a very very difficult place to overtake Fredo alfi having a bit of a look a slightly different line there

From the orange car in front of him as he comes around and tries to position himself for an overtake perhaps on the exit of turn seven as they come down into the flat out snaking section of turns 8 9 10 and 11 the next overtaking opportunity perhaps turns 18 and 190 or

Even turn 20 cuz this is such a fastic section of the track but it is almost flat out so it’s very very difficult to make a move stick you can see however Fredrico alrai is not listening to me because what do I know but the white

Card the number 10 car forri Ali all over the back of the orange number 52 this is for the championship lead l ladies and gentlemen if Fredrico can get in front of that orange car he’s going to have a very very very good weekend indeed and you can see Andre pic as well

As the leader of the race continuing to go and build his uh his lead at the front of the at the Gap at the moment at 2.125 seconds he’s secure but now P an ultimate corner of the race we’re coming down the back straight can Solomon zanar

Defend his position or Will Fredo alfi the Italian driving with the UAE license managed to make a move in through turn 20 uh at the moment on screen we see the red number 5 49 of Andre pic the Serbian driver taking the race lead and as we

Cross the start Finish Line it is Salman andf far in second position and fedo alrai in third position ahead of kill kov and Oscar Woods rounding out the top five sixth overall is Omar alderan and just behind him the purple number eight of amda Aly followed closely by Sager

Um fantastic Race by Petrovic really Before the Race he was asking his engineer uh how how can I be first in the championship uh when we go away from here and he said just win the race and then let’s see and he did it and uh he

Really wanted to win the race he was really motivated he said that uh yeah he had few podiums but now he wanted to have a top SP step of a Podium and uh wow what uh what a race he was really motivated and he executed perfectly well

Talking about podiums I think that’s my cue to head down to the podium Lucas so I hope to take care of the ladies and gentlemen and for me thank you very much for watching I hope to see you again very soon thank you Aon so really looking forward forward to see these

Guys on the podiums for the last time this weekend and and for the last time in in Kuwait uh for uh for a for a while let’s say hopefully we come back here soon it’s uh the second uh weekend in a row that uh we’ve been racing here in

Kuwait Kuwait has been great to us we have had amazing racing amazing battles and uh many different drivers on the podiums and uh also this weekend uh we had a few different winners because we had uh um Saker Almo Sheri race three we had Petrovic just now we had zamari in

Race one and federi in race two so four different winners in four races that is uh an explanation on the the level of the championship how much is leveled between these guys also because they get equal cars equal setups just have a small adjustability of a balance that you can

Uh deal with with your engineer uh in order just to make sure that the driver can uh feel uh uh he can suit the setup of the car within his driving style but uh mostly of the setup is uh same for everybody so with equal cars then these

Guys can just think about the racing can improve themselves and can uh enjoy moments like this moments where you uh deliver and uh and do your best and uh one of those moments that in motorport you will remember for the rest of your life uh is uh his first win in single

Seats first win in Motor Racing after carting but this guy is a carting War champion from Rox senior category which is you know most competitive category in the rotx uh championship and uh yeah I mean uh must be really really pleasing finishing a weekend like this

It came uh uh last week when we when uh he arrived Andre uh he had basically zero experience in uh single Seaters with his engineer they were able to develop such a relationship within two weeks so must be also one of those things that uh that make uh these moments even more sweet so he has friends and family with him and then again four different winners in four races he has being congratulated by

Peter Thompson now he’s with Luke Thompson Thompson family they are the promoter of this formula 4 uh Saudi Arabia Championship certified by FIA and uh with is they their long family history Motorsport back in the 80s with the formula op pelus then uh Formula 3 and many other different

Formulas then uh in gp2 Asia with myself Vice Champions and and then back in uh in Far East Asia with the formula bnw Championship formula Renault 3.5 and then U formula 4 southeast Asia and finally uh in Middle East for the very first Motor Racing Championship ever uh from

Saudi Arabia and we will race all around the area we started in Bahrain with the trophy event then two times here in quit for the first round of uh the championship we will be in Qatar for the third round and then jeda uh Saudi Arabia for the last two rounds of the of

The first season of the opening season of this Championship several different uh drivers on the podiums four different winners but same cars same chassis same engine same tires same setup and same opportunities same amount of set of tires and this is giving all the drivers the opportunity to

Shine and uh it has been a couple of uh weeks uh where we were able to to discover all the the talents from from these guys and we want to hear what these three pum finishes has to say marello turning your body to face here we are with the second step on

The podium suan Zari another good result from you uh well you you think that the moment where you lost the race would the start no I did a good start just he was faster then the whole race I was pushing like a maniac and I didn’t give up so so

I mean I had dirt here this is why my tis were a bit uh I struggled a bit so but uh we work hard the next time and we keep pushing and we never give up really good attitude but what about the championship I mean at the end still

Good point for and this Championship battle but look like there are many people now that can fight uh for this Championship well I think this Championship is tight we try to do our maximum maximize the points and score points in each round thank you very much really really good Raid okay here we are with Andre Petrovic well you dress up with Serbian scarf and uh flag so well you said it actually uh last day I guess when you said ah going always better I’m going for the win sooner or later maybe the last one and there you are yeah you know

I always want to go for the win before I set my expectations first weekend first round one Podium second round one win I think I exceeded them a little bit I think the pace was really good and I’m really happy to get my first how did you make the star so good

Arriving already ahead at the first Corner yeah in the first race yesterday my start was not good and uh I think I needed a little bit of time to get used to the clutch but then I really uh inspected it a lot I spent like one hour

Looking at the onboards videos and I found the perfect solution to get a good start so in last three races I got a really good start so I I guess you’re not going to share with the other driver the perfect solution for the start after the Championship

Ends okay really really good job Andre congratulations and a little bit late with the third position one more time on the podium well federo refi really solid race again you were fighting with the suan hold the race looked like you were trying to go on the inside on the

Outside but you never had that momentum to overtake him yeah it was a tough race we started P5 had a good start but after I was chasing down suan the whole race it was hard to get by I had two opportunities just wasn’t quite enough

To get by and yeah it was it was a close race though anyway still a good Podium for your championship and like I said even to the other driver seem like a lot of people can fight for this Championship yeah it’s very spread out also thanks to the reverse grids

Everyone has an opportunity to do well so yeah everyone can fight for it congratulation fed another really good Podium for you so we heard from uh the top three and uh it has been a really tough race really amazing race Andre Petrovic winner of today and sulan

Zamari in second only shine of 1.7 seconds away and on his tail federo rifi in P3 on the podium K kusov fourth position and Oscar vs in fifth position so all these guys really close but alsar under aan in six was uh part of this group all these guys with a very similar

Rhythm a very similar pace so can’t wait to see them back in action in Qatar position seven for ABD kui uh position eight for Saka mosheri from Kuwait winner of race three fala cabani on the podium in race three in P9 Abdullah kui in 10th position after a really nice

Maneuver over laa Villers and on wo as well laa in 11th and Jabor Alan in 12th uh abdulaziz Abu zenada 13 and one proo after a spin he finished in the four 14 place so um we have seen uh two type of racing this weekend race one and four

They were very clean racing down on Pace where the start positions uh indicated uh who was uh uh who wanted to try and make the pace and since then uh we have seen a fierce fight but more on the on the stopwatch rather than on track this

What we seen today and also uh today in race four but also yesterday in race one and uh here we see on the back of the field uh how they fighting and federo rifi trying to get uh the position from suan zamari they suan zamari had a warning

Over track limits but uh he managed to finish in second place spin from one show and here you see how close the leading group from P1 to P6 all together with a winner of today Andre Petrovic so I was saying we’ve seen two different type of racing race

One race four and then race two and three with a lot of fight a lot of action with u uh also different drivers uh on the podium and um definitely we have seen uh you know so many different uh uh camera angles from ra

From turn one one a and one b and we want to see another one because this is where all the action is uh in the opening lap of the race uh because uh from turn one uh before going to the long straight we go into a chicane which

Is fourth gear or third gear for the left hand side and then third for the right hand side what a start from Andre Petrovic what a start fantastic start he nailed it and he goes into P1 and then we have Omar Al Dean on the inside uh gaining sixth position and uh

Then Petrovic in the opening lap trying to break the tow uh in order to stay ahead of everybody and he did and he did for the whole race with an incredible pace suan zfar in second and then federo arifi up to P3 Kil kusov in P4 V fifth

Alderan and sixth and uh this is how it was in the opening lap with zamari really close to Petrovic but Petrovic just had to keep his head down he he had new tires he just needed to bring the tires up on temperature and then uh it

Just uh uh went for for a win uh he just was able to improve and increase the the Gap one time a second or two per lap not more just a little bit and here you see how good a start in the very first uh 20

Mters and uh that start is what gave him the opportunity to clinch this Victory who knows if he was second in the first Corner if he was still able to um somehow bring this wi home he definitely want it and uh he he made it in style with uh a very good uh

Pace so um this is what uh formula 4 Saudi Arabia uh is is about two different type of uh uh races that we see over the weekend um two races that based on uh qualifying performance and two based on uh the reverse grid but you still have to be within the 4

Seconds Gap in order to um qualify for the reverse crit so um this has been uh uh phenomenal for uh the opportunities that these guys have also the guys that uh had opportunity to start had for the reverse grid they had a they were able to uh benefit from being in the lead

Group also for their uh learning skills for them to see the lines and the speed that uh some of the fastest drivers they were um applying in different different Corners in fact we have seen some amazing uh improvements and good results for also the guys that

Uh they couldn’t find for find fight for podiums but still they made uh really really big improvements through uh this uh double header here in Kuwait 20 different Corners that provides uh so much action actually it’s even more than 20 if we consider that we do the additional chicane which is uh the

Longest uh um longest uh uh layout of the circuit so it’s now time for the podium to Aon Thompson with the top three finishes and the top three rookies and Now ladies and gentlemen for the podium celebration of race 4 here for the mototown golf Prix without any
