MATHILDA PAATZ & NICOLE HAVRDA Fight Through Chaotic F4 CEZ Slovakia Weekend

August 31, 2025

• MATHILDA PAATZ showed serious pace all weekend at Slovakia Ring, qualifying within three-tenths of pole and running as high as second in practice. She nailed a stellar fifth-place finish in race one, proving she belongs in the sharp end of this competitive F4 CEZ field.
• The weekend turned heartbreaking for PAATZ in race three when contact while battling for position left her with a puncture that forced her out. She’d been fighting tooth and nail with championship contenders, making moves and holding her ground before the racing gods intervened with typical cruel timing.
• NICOLE HAVRDA, the F1 Academy racer making her F4 CEZ appearance, quietly put together a solid weekend with consistent points finishes. She grabbed tenth in race one and ninth in the finale, showing the kind of racecraft that comes from competing at the highest levels of women’s motorsport.
