There were as many as four Safety Cars throughout […]
Throughout the 18-lap Sprint at Imola, there were up to four Safety Cars deployed, but it was León who excelled at handling each restart, quickly taking the lead early on. Polish Red Bull Junior Kacper Sztuka started on pole for the reverse grid, aiming to score his first points of the 2024 season. León and Sztuka were on the front row, while Tim Tramnitz and joint championship leader Luke Browning were on the second row. Browning, tied with Italian Leonardo Fornaroli, faced a challenging task starting from 11th on the grid to earn points. León seized the lead from Sztuka at Tamburello, while Sztuka fell behind to fourth as the Safety Car was called multiple times throughout the race. León displayed a different strategy during restarts, maintaining his lead against the Red Bull Juniors behind him, leading the field back to green flag racing.
