Sebastian Wheldon claimed his first victory since Zandvoort in the second and final race of the FIA Formula Regional European Championship weekend at Paul Ricard. The MP Motorsport driver, who inherited pole position after a post-qualifying penalty was handed to R-ace GP's Emanuele Olivieri, went on to claim victory and score valuable championship points. R-ace GP's Rashid Al Dhaheri, who arrived in France leading the championship, finished sixth.

The FIA Formula Regional European Championship heads to Le Castellet this weekend (17-19 July) for the sixth of its eight scheduled rounds, which also marks the final event before the summer break.

Rashid Al Dhaheri secured his third victory of the season at the Hungaroring – and his first in a full-points race – to strengthen his lead in the FIA Formula Regional European Championship standings. The R-ace GP driver, who had claimed his maiden pole position of the year in Qualifying 2, controlled the second and final race of the fifth round of the season from start to finish.

Emanuele Olivieri claimed his maiden victory in the FIA Formula Regional European Championship on home soil at Monza. The R-ace GP driver racing under the ACI Team Italia banner converted pole position into a commanding victory in the third and final race of the weekend. The result also marked the first victory for an Italian driver at Monza since Andrea Kimi Antonelli's triumph in 2023.

Rashid Al Dhaheri added a second win to his 2026 FIA FREC campaign at Monza, following his maiden success at the Red Bull Ring. Starting from the fourth row of the grid, the R-ace GP driver produced an impressive comeback to take victory in a race affected by three Safety Car periods.
