The second weekend and the fifth race overall, the Rookie Leonardo Lorandi (Bhaitech) won the second race of the Italian F.4 Championship powered by Abarth at Adria. It was a result obtained in difficult conditions: after a heavy downpour on the circuit overnight, the race started behind the Safety Car on a damp circuit, although the track did dry with every passing lap. Lorandi, after getting by the Dutchman Job Van Uitert (who ultimately finished second for Jenzer Motorsport), was running in third, but then benefited from contact between the Italian Lorenzo Colombo (Bhaitech) and the New Zealander Marcus Armstrong (Prema Power Team). Both drivers immediately retired from the race.

On the third step of the podium was the German Lirim Zendeli (BWT Muecke Motorsport), who had a great battle with the Italian Aldo Festante (DR Formula), who was fourth. Fifth was the Venezuelan Sebastian Fernandez (Bhaitech), followed by the Russian Artem Petrov (DR Formula), the Brazilian Enzo Fittipaldi (Prema Power Team), the Indian Kush Maini (Jenzer Motorsport), the German Sophia Floersch (BWT Mucke Motorsport) and the Guatemalan Ian Rodriguez (DRZ Benelli).

In the Rookie Trophy, the podium replicated the first race held at Adria: Lorandi, Fittipaldi and the Argentine Giorgio Carrara (Jenzer Motorsport). Fourth was the Brazilian Felipe Branquinho (DR Formula) and fifth Andrea Dell’Accio (Henry Morrogh Racing).

This afternoon, at 15:30, will be Race 3, over a distance of 28 minutes + 1 lap.
