GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • ALISHA PALMOWSKI got caught up in the stewards’ penalty spree at Aragon, taking a brutal 40-second track limits penalty that dropped her from 11th to 19th – one of 20 drivers who couldn’t keep it between the lines in the tricky wet conditions. The Campos Racing driver found herself in the thick of a race where officials handed out penalties like Halloween candy, though she wasn’t alone in struggling with the challenging track limits.
  • CHIARA BATTIG quietly put together a solid drive for Campos Racing, bringing her car home in 16th place without any major drama or penalties. While her teammate Palmowski got tangled up with track limits violations, Battig kept her nose clean and finished just under a minute behind winner Ary Bansal, showing the kind of consistency that builds championship campaigns in junior formulas.
  • MEGAN BRUCE rounded out the women’s contingent for Campos Racing with a 21st-place finish, while GINEVRA PANZERI struggled with AS Motorsport machinery and ended up a lap down in 29th. The mixed conditions at Aragon made for a challenging day where track position and penalty avoidance mattered as much as outright pace, with the four women drivers facing the same treacherous conditions that caught out most of the field.
