GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • ANTONELLA BASSANI delivered her strongest weekend yet with fourth in Race 1 and fifth in Race 2 at Velo Città, running second-row starts and briefly holding provisional pole in Q2 qualifying.
  • The Brazilian defended aggressively in Race 1 against Matheus Comparatto through two safety car periods, pushing Alceu Feldmann Neto late but falling short by tenths on the technical layout.
  • BASSANI lost a position to Jeff Giassi at Race 2’s start, then dropped another to Marçal Müller on restart while battling technical issues that prevented her from challenging the leading quartet.
  • The sophomore driver showed consistent front-running pace across testing and competition in the 36-car field, building momentum after recovering from 17th to 10th at Interlagos season opener.

  • Porsche Carrera Cup Brazil at Circuit de la Sarthe, Le Mans, June 11-13, 2026
