• Championship leader LÆRKE RØNN delivered a masterclass weekend at Gelleråsen, securing pole position for Race 2 and backing it up with consistent second-place finishes in both races. The young Danish driver has been absolutely relentless in her debut Porsche season, now sitting 13 points clear at the top with five podiums from six races. Her ability to extract pace when it matters – like that purple sector charge in Race 1 that nearly caught Vendelbo – shows exactly why she’s leading this championship.
• EMMA WIGROTH proved her front-row starting positions weren’t a fluke, converting both into solid third-place finishes that moved her up to third in the championship standings. Her Race 1 launch around the outside showed real racecraft, and while she got boxed in during Race 2’s opening chaos, she maintained composure to secure the final podium spot both times. These back-to-back podiums mark her third and fourth top-three finishes of the season, establishing her as a consistent threat.
• The weekend also marked the return of EMMA SVENSSON, who impressed on her guest appearance after a racing hiatus caused by funding challenges. The 25-year-old adapted quickly to the Porsche 718 Cayman, qualifying seventh and eighth before delivering solid sixth and seventh-place finishes. Her late-race pace improvement into the 1:07s during Race 2 suggests she hasn’t lost her speed during the break, making her a compelling case for more outings as she pushes for a full 2026 campaign.
