Nikola Tsolov Extends 2026 F2 Standings Lead

Nikola Tsolov extended his lead at the top of the 2026 Formula 2 standings after taking his fifth win of the season in the British Grand Prix Feature Race at Silverstone.

Tsolov now has 141 points and holds a 17-point advantage over Gabriele Mini, who could only finish sixth in the main race. The shift is significant because Tsolov had only taken the standings lead on countback after the Sprint, but now leaves Silverstone with a clear points margin.

Rafael Camara remains third on 94 points after crossing the line fifth, slightly reducing the gap to Mini in the fight for second place. Alex Dunne sits fourth on 92 points, keeping the group behind Tsolov closely packed.

Rafael Villagomez was one of the biggest movers after another podium finish. The result lifted him to 10th in the drivers' standings on 30 points, following his second third-place finish in three races and only his second points-scoring result of the season.

In the teams' championship, Campos Racing strengthened its lead with 209 points. Its advantage over MP Motorsport now stands at 57 points, while Rodin Motorsport remains third on 140 points and within realistic range of the runner-up position.

The only team standings movement came lower down the order, where Van Amersfoort Racing moved into ninth place ahead of Prema Racing. The Silverstone result showed that Villagomez's momentum had an impact not only on the drivers' standings, but also on his team's championship position.

With a 17-point lead, Tsolov leaves Silverstone in control of the 2026 F2 title race. However, the gaps between Mini, Camara and Dunne keep the next phase important, particularly if feature-race consistency again becomes the key differentiator in the championship.
