- EMMA FELBERMAYR impressed with aggressive midfield drives, climbing from 16th to provisional top-ten before late damage in Race 1. The F1 Academy Shanghai leader scored 15th in Race 3, collecting crucial championship points for PHM Racing.
- PAYTON WESTCOTT dominated Female Trophy battles with back-to-back victories in Races 2 and 4, leading the Women’s Championship with 86 points. The Mercedes-backed F1 Academy driver maximized her dual-program strategy with strong overtaking moves throughout.
