Vallelunga Race Recap

June 16, 2024

Victor Smialek and Franz Woess Racing made their return to the Vallelunga Circuit in Italy.

In the first race, Victor grabbed a 1st place finish. With 2 racers jumping and a chaotic start, Victor maintained position and took advantage of the safety car to guarantee his top finish. With momentum going into the second race, he built on a solid start to battle for several laps and eventually overtake the other drivers. After being hit from behind and sustaining damage to his car, Victor was able to muscle out a 2nd place finish.

“Good weekend. A couple guys in front got jump start penalties in Race 1, so I just kept the pace and stayed out of trouble because I knew they would be penalized. Race 2 was a little more eventful. [I] got a decent start but got hit from behind and had some rear wing damage and had to nurse the car back home.”.

Next, Victor and Franz Woess Racing head to the Lausitzring in Germany.
