F2 Bahrain: Maloney romps to win first race for new car
In a dramatic sprint race, Sauber junior Maloney secured his first F2 win for Rodin Motorsport with a lead of over five seconds, as the soft tire strategy backfired for many, favoring those on hard tires. Jak Crawford took off from pole position leaving Taylor Barnard behind who later retired due to struggles. Maloney showcased his passing skills, making a remarkable climb to the lead and ultimately securing victory. Zak O’Sullivan’s long-game strategy with hard tires paid off as he finished seventh, while drivers on soft tires struggled towards the end of the race. The podium featured Maloney, Crawford, and Marti, with Bortoleto starting on pole for the next race.
