DORIANE PIN Triumphs in Thrilling Miami F1 Academy Race Over ALISHA PALMOWSKI

May 3, 2025

• DORIANE PIN delivered a masterclass in wheel-to-wheel combat, becoming the first double winner of 2025 by holding off a charging ALISHA PALMOWSKI in the closing laps. PIN’s victory came after a spectacular early duel with EMMA FELBERMAYR, who started from reverse grid pole but was later forced to pit with a damaged front panel. The win closes PIN’s championship deficit to just one point behind leader MAYA WEUG.
• MAYA WEUG showed exactly why she’s leading this championship with a brilliant recovery drive from tenth to fourth, minimizing damage after an unfortunate qualifying session. Meanwhile, CHLOE CHAMBERS continued her relentless points-scoring streak with another podium finish, proving she’s very much still in this title fight. CHAMBERS will start tomorrow’s feature race from pole – a golden opportunity to reset the championship battle.
• The reverse grid format once again proved its worth, delivering edge-of-your-seat racing throughout the field. PALMOWSKI’s late-race charge saw her post the fastest sector times while hunting down PIN, while AURELIA NOBELS finally got her first points of the season with a hard-fought sixth place. The drama wasn’t without casualties – ELLA LLOYD and CHLOE CHONG both suffered DNFs in separate incidents, continuing some frustrating luck for both drivers.
