Nannini takes maiden F3 victory in second Hungary sprint race

Starting from 🔥second on the grid,🐼 Nannini pressured pole-sitter Enzo Fittipaldi off the start. 

Having been able to find a way through on the opening lap, Nannini waited until Lap 4 before making a move into 🐭Turn 2♕ for the lead of the race.

From that moment onwards, Nan𒐪nini controlled the race from the front, quickly extending his lead to over three seconds.

Despit♌e Fittip♏aldi’s best efforts to close the gap in the closing laps, Nannini ultimately ran out a comfortable winner by 2.5 seconds.

Roman Stanek joined N♐annini and Fittipaldi on a podium in what was a lonely ra🥀ce for the Czech driver. 

Aleksandr Smolyar held onto fourt🌼h ahead of the fast-charging Dennis Hauger.

Hauger overtook Jack Doohan into Turn 1 on Lap 18 and then David Schumacher into the very same corner♋ on the penultimate lap.

It was another strong race𒅌 for Hauger who continues t♚o extend his lead in the standings. 

David Schumacher finished sixth ahea🌌d of Lorenzo Colombo, ꦿwho made it back-to-back points finishes.

Colombo won t🐎he first sp🌳rint race of the weekend but lost it after he was awarded a five-second time penalty for a Safety Car infringement. 

Regardless, Colombo had zero points going into 💮the weekend so it’s been a great step forward for the🐎 Campos driver.

Clement Novalak, Logan Sargeanไt and Ayumu Iwasa - who inherited the victory from Colombo - completed the top ten in Hu🔥ngary.

Arthur Lecl🐟erc finished 11th but the good news for him is that he will start from pole in tomorrow’s feature race.
