Anthoine Hubert and Jules Gounon were triumphant on Sunday at Pau, taking victories in the first and second French F4 races respectively.

Hubert had little trouble turning his pole into his second victory of the season in race one, crossing the checkered fleg under safety car conditions as he outpaced Dutchman Neal Van Vaerenbergh over the previous laps laps. Florian Pottier was third ahead of Simo Muhonen and Tristan Viidas.

Tom le Coq was sixth ahead of Felix Hirsiger with Jules Gounon in eighth. Remy Deguffroy and Amaury Richard completed the points.

Richard and Deguffroy were the men on the front row, but neither of them managed to hold Gounon at bay during lap one. After five laps, the two Frenchmen came together and ended up the only retirements of the race.

Gounon managed to wrap up his first French F4 victory, keeping Hirsiger at bay. Muhonen finished in third, ahead of Hubert and le Coq. Pottier finished sixth ahead of Dennis Anoschin and van Vaerenbergh. Amaury Rossero and Valentin Naud completed the points.
