GABRIELA JILKOVA Runs Wide Under Pressure at Goa Street Circuit Debut

February 15, 2026

• GABRIELA JILKOVA earned pole position for Race 2 at the challenging Manohar International Airport Street Circuit, proving her speed in qualifying on the tight 2.064 km, 12-turn layout that punished even minor mistakes with its limited run-off areas.
• When the lights went out, JILKOVA faced immediate pressure from the field and ran wide early in the race, creating an opening that Sohil Shah expertly exploited to trigger a dramatic reshuffle at the front of the pack.
• While JILKOVA didn’t convert her pole to a podium finish, she demonstrated the qualifying pace needed to compete at the front on one of the most demanding street circuits in Indian motorsport, setting herself up as a driver to watch in future rounds.
