• MAYA WEUG delivered when it mattered most, snatching pole position at Singapore’s Marina Bay with a 2:03.453 – her second consecutive pole. The Ferrari Driver Academy talent used a purple final sector to pull 0.189s clear of CHLOE CHAMBERS and crucially moved ahead of championship leader DORIANE PIN, earning those vital two points to close the 20-point title gap.
• The session showcased the depth of talent we’re seeing this season, with wildcard entry LISA BILLARD making history as the first guest driver to crack the top eight by qualifying fifth. ELLA LLOYD bounced back from a wall scare to secure fourth, while PIN managed to salvage second place on her final flying lap despite struggling tires in the challenging Singapore heat and humidity.
• This pole position sets up a fascinating championship showdown heading into the Las Vegas finale. PIN still holds the points advantage, but WEUG has the momentum and proved she can deliver under pressure on one of the most demanding circuits on the calendar. With the title fight this close, every grid position and championship point becomes crucial in determining who takes home the crown.
