ISABELL RUSTAD Shines in Rain, Scores Season-Best P6 at Rudskogen Home Round

September 10, 2025

GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • ISABELL RUSTAD delivered her strongest qualifying performance of the season at her home track in Norway, securing P6 in challenging wet conditions—her first-ever rain qualifying session. The result finally achieved her season-long goal of reaching Q2, proving she belongs among the series’ front-runners when given equal conditions.
  • Race 1 saw RUSTAD maintain competitive pace from the third row, running consistent 1:24.5 laps while defending against championship veteran Bergström for 12 laps before eventually finishing P7. With guest driver Dennis Hauger ineligible for points, her result translated to valuable sixth-place championship points, keeping her momentum strong.
  • Despite a frustrating 15-second track limits penalty dropping her to P11 in Race 2, RUSTAD showed the fighting spirit we love to see, battling wheel-to-wheel with experienced competitors and matching their pace throughout. She maintains seventh in the championship standings and top rookie position heading into the season finale, proving her step up to Carrera Cup was the right move.
