BIANCA BUSTAMANTE Powers Through Hand Injury for Two Top-20s at Spa GB3

June 3, 2025

• BIANCA BUSTAMANTE proved her mettle at Spa, racing through a painful hand injury sustained in Thursday practice to secure two top-20 finishes. The Filipina driver showed she’s not backing down from adversity, climbing positions in all three races despite the physical challenge of handling a demanding GB3 car on one of racing’s most iconic circuits.
• Her weekend showcased genuine racecraft development, making confident overtakes and running competitive lap times that kept her in the thick of midfield battles. Starting P19 in both qualifying sessions, she consistently gained ground through smart positioning and aggressive-but-clean racing, including a standout move to P15 in the wet conditions of Race 3 before an unlucky gravel trap ended her charge.
• The Elite Motorsport driver continues building momentum in her crucial transition from F1 Academy to mixed-gender competition, with her Spa performance cementing the upward trajectory that began at Zandvoort. Next up is the Hungaroring, where she previously competed in W Series—a chance to leverage circuit knowledge as she pushes deeper into the GB3 midfield pack.
