A repetition of John Nielsen’s victory in the Preservation of the streets in 1984 did not come to speak for neither the Christian Lundgaard or Frederik Vesti, as the world’s most prestigious Formula 3 race was held on Sunday.
But the Danish member of the Renault talentakedemi was very close to finish on the podium, just like Tom Kristensen and Jan Magnussen did in the beginning of the 90’s.
Lundgaard, however, had to settle for a frustrated fourth place, while Frederik Vesti joined as a tier.
the 18-year-old Richard Verschoor showed that the Netherlands can offer on the other racers than Max Verstappen, as he drove the victory home from the fourth starting position.
Christian Lundgaard was really a good start, and as the breeds down the bleachers towards Lisbon-turn, fought to find the right slipstream, flirted he with an attack in the first place.
It does not succeed, but even if the later wins Verschoor already here slid past, held the 18-year-old østjyde stuck in third place.
He overtook with the same Premas sovereign freshman, F3 champion, Robert Shwartzman, which destroyed its frontvinge shortly after the start – apparently by shear Lundgaard behind – so the Russian had to retire.
Gadeløbet always offers drama, and although none crashed just as hard as Sophia Flörsch in the last year, sent the largest a safetycar on track.
It was a fatal blow to Lundgaards podiedrømme, when the field was total, and Logan Sargeant could slipstream past with six laps again.
the Dane’s team ART Grand Prix has not competed in Macao for over ten years, and just as in this year’s F3 championship they were a little on the heels. ART-car seemed in any case to lack the top speed. Lundgaards two other teamkammerater, respectively, was deleted and was 15’are in the field of 30 racers.
Frederik Vesti, you may also fret on the journey home to Filskov after his second visit to Macao. His weekend fell apart already during Saturday’s kvalifikationsløb, where both he and Prema-teamkammeraten Marcus Armstrong on the bizarre show was held back by a crash in front of them, which meant that half of the field drove past, while they helplessly to.
Prema-pure-bred had speed for a big result proved by Robert Shwartzman and his Danish and new zealand colleagues.
Sunday advanced Vesti otter rankings and finished the tier, while Armstrong won the nine and ending number eight.
