Christian Ho gets his first car racing win in Spanish F4 at Aragon

Campos Racing’s Christian Ho led from lights-to-flag for his first Spanish Formula 4 win in the second race at Aragon.

Ho went unchallenged at the start as fellow front-row starter Enzo Deligny got off the line slowly and came under attack from Theophile Nael. However the long back straight of the Aragon track brought them back onto Ho’s tail and he tried to break the tow by weaving.

He finished the lap 0.569 seconds ahead, with that gap shrinking to 0.351s on lap four before he started to manage the gap again to finish 0.924s clear of Deligny.

Nael kept on Deligny’s gearbox until the final third of the race, but he was still comfortable in third place as the drivers behind spent their time battling each other.

Initially Andres Cardenas was fourth, but he lost several places on lap one and Pedro Clerot moved into fourth place. Clerot then started squabbling with Noah Stromsted, swapping positions miltiple times while Valerio Rinicella spun Cardenas off.

The battling continued all the way through the race, with Rinicella getting himself between the pair at times, and on lap 11 when Stromsted went down the inide of Rinicella at the final chicane it also enabled Matteo De Palo to get past too.

De Palo took fifth from Stromsted at turn one on the next lap, then fended off his attacks through the final two laps. Rinicella was not too far behind, while Jeronimo Berrio lost a points finish by retiring on the final lap.

That meant the top 10 was completed by Keanu Al Azhari, Ricardo Gracia and Noah Lisle, the latter having held off the first two for much of the race but at one point only doing so by going off the track and so he was made to concede a place after.

Alex Ninovic had met the chequered the flag in ninth, but a two-second penalty for track limits absue dropped him out of the points.

Hiyu Yamakoshi failed to make the start with a car issue, while George Zhuravskiy made a race-ending trip to the pits at the end of lap one. Cardenas also ended his race in the pits.

Flavio Olivieri retired after a lap two collision with Luciano Morano, while Theodor Jensen and Daniel Nogales collided twice during the race while fighting far outside the top 20 but both avoided penalties.
