Joining him on the Podium was Artem Petrov and Aldo Festante.

out the Women’s Trophy
Vallelunga
Again, Race 3 was held in hot conditions meaning that tyre use became more than ever, a critical aspect for all drivers. The winner was the Brazilian Felipe Drugovich of Van Amersfort Racing, impressive given it was his first time on the Vallelunga circuit. Right behind him was the Russian Artem Petrov (DR Formula), his third podium from the three races, despite the fact that he was given a 5 second penalty for contact with his team mate, the Italian Aldo Festante.
A great drive from Festante who resisted the pressure applied to him by the New Zealander Marcus Armstrong (Prema Power Team), who finished fourth.
- In fifth place was the Italian Lorenzo Colombo (Bhaitech), who during the final tried to attack for fourth place but thought better of it, keeping one eye on the championship. From sixth through to tenth were the Guatemalan Ian Rodriguez (DRZ Benelli), the Italian Leonardo Lorandi (Bhaitech), the Germans Sophia Floersch and Lirim Zendeli (BWT Muecke Motorsport) and the British driver Louis Gachot (Van Amersfort Racing).
- In the Rookie Trophy, a third victory for Lorandi, followed by the Brit Olli Caldwell (BWT Muecke Motorsport) and Brazil’s Enzo Fittipaldi (Prema Power Team).
- In the Women’s Trophy a win for Sophia Floersch who here at Vallelunga, proved the speed that she showed previously at Misano and Adria.
- The next round of the Italian F4 Championship powered by Abarth will be held at Mugello on July 14-16.
