Joshua Durksen stormed to victory in a dramatic F2 Sprint Race at Monza, beating John Bennett who started from reverse-grid pole. The Invicta Racing driver mastered the chaos to claim bragging rights at the Temple of Speed.
Safety Cars Shake Up the Order
The 21-lap race was twice interrupted by safety cars. First, championship contender Rafael Camara spun at the first chicane and couldn't get his car going again. Later, Roman Bilinski hit the wall after losing control, ending his race prematurely.
Durksen kept his cool through both restarts, securing the win and an extra point for fastest lap. Oliver Goethe completed the podium after a fierce battle with Noel Leon and Nikola Tsolov, who rounded out the top five.
Points Galore in a Tense Battle
Martinius Stenshorne, Alex Dunne, and Laurens van Hoepen also scored valuable points. Behind them, young talents like Colton Herta and Emerson Fittipaldi Jr. impressed with strong drives.
With the championship fight wide open, all eyes now turn to the Feature Race, where strategy and tire management will be key. The Sprint result has certainly reshaped the weekend's narrative.
