BIANCA BUSTAMANTE Scores P13 Personal Best at Demanding Zandvoort GB3 Round

May 21, 2025

GRRL! SUMMARY:

BIANCA BUSTAMANTE delivered her strongest GB3 performance yet with a P13 finish at Zandvoort, marking significant progress in her transition from F1 Academy’s all-female field to mixed-gender competition. The Filipina driver consistently improved throughout the weekend, cutting her qualifying gap from 1.5 seconds off pace in practice to just over a second by Q2, showing the kind of steady development that wins championships.
Her weekend showcased exactly what we want to see from drivers making the step up—resilience and learning from every session. After starting P17 in race one and managing a clean P17 finish, she gained valuable race craft experience without safety car interruptions, then navigated chaotic midfield battles in race two to finish P19 while maintaining competitive pace throughout.
The reverse-grid finale proved BUSTAMANTE’s racecraft has leveled up, as she expertly navigated two safety car periods and a dramatic three-car crash to climb from P18 to P13. Her ability to stay clean through the chaos while others crashed out shows the kind of smart, opportunistic driving that separates future stars from weekend warriors—exactly what you need when facing the physical demands of the faster, more powerful Tatuus MSV GB3-025 machinery.
