• CHLOE CHAMBERS delivered when it counted most, securing her third consecutive F1 Academy pole position around Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve with a commanding 1m 38.125s lap time. The Red Bull Ford driver engaged in a proper scrap with teammate ALISHA PALMOWSKI, trading fastest laps before pulling five tenths clear in the final six minutes to claim the top spot for Campos Racing.
• The qualifying session showcased the depth of talent we’ve come to expect, with DORIANE PIN’s strategic late run nearly snatching second before PALMOWSKI reasserted herself on the front row. ELLA LLOYD matched her best qualifying performance in fourth, while rookies EMMA FELBERMAYR and others proved they belong in this field by consistently finding pace when it matters.
• Championship leader MAYA WEUG’s weekend took a brutal turn from an electrical issue in practice to a disastrous P15 qualifying result. This opens the door for CHAMBERS to make serious moves in the title fight, starting with Saturday’s race where she’ll have the perfect platform to capitalize on her rival’s misfortune and close the points gap.
