F2 Australia: Hadjar dominant in crash-strewn sprint race
Hadjar claimed his second F2 victory at Albert Park with a dominant performance, leading by over six seconds and skillfully navigating two safety car restarts. However, the win was overshadowed by a start-line incident that led to Pepe Marti and Gabriel Bortoleto retiring after a collision caused by Hadjar veering across the track. This incident will be investigated by the stewards post-race. Zane Maloney made early gains moving from sixth to fourth due to the retirements, but lost positions after a restart. The race saw multiple incidents, including a three-car incident at Turn 12 and near misses, like Juan Manuel Correa’s contact with Jak Crawford. Hadjar comfortably secured the win, while Staněk held onto second place amid challenges from Kush Maini and Dennis Hauger.
