In Barcelona, during the first of the 3 races in the penultimate round of the Italian F.4 Championship, Freddie Slater from Prema Racing claimed his twelfth win of the season, coming within a hair’s breadth of securing the title. With US Racing’s Akshay Bohra stalling on pole at the start, the only driver to keep the fight alive until Sunday was Hiyu Yamakoshi from Van Amersfoort Racing.

Freddie Slater completed his sweep at Vallelunga by winning all three races of the third round of the Italian F.4 Championship. In the last race of the weekend, the British driver from Prema Racing started from P2 and took the lead by the end of the straight. From there, he resisted Alex Powell's attempts to reclaim the first position, maintaining a firm grip on the lead until the end, even handling multiple restarts behind the Safety Car without issues.

Race 2 of the Italian F.4 Championship took place in the morning at the Piero Taruffi Circuit in Vallelunga, starting at 9:00. After 30 minutes + 1 lap, Freddie Slater emerged victorious once again. This morning, the British driver from Prema Racing started from pole position and led an impeccable race, crossing the finish line with over a 5-second lead on the second position, with the advantage accumulated through a series of fastest laps.

It was a dramatic first visit of 2024 to the Dubai Autodrome for the Formula 4 UAE Championship Certified by FIA (F4 UAE). Two race victories for Nikita Bedrin have propelled the PHM AIX Racing driver firmly into the championship hunt, in which Mumbai Falcons Racing’s Freddie Slater continues to narrowly lead. After a superb weekend that also included two pole positions, Bedrin is one of four drivers at the top of the table covered by 22 points – 25 are on offer for a race win – with two events comprising six races still to come.
