Kean Nakamura-Berta leaves Paul Ricard leading the FIA Formula Regional European Championship for the first time this season after a brilliant weekend at Circuit Paul Ricard, claiming victory in Race 1 and third in Race 2 to move 13 points clear at the top of the standings. It was PREMA's most significant weekend of the season so far, with Tomass Stolcermanis also showing strong pace across both races and Salim Hanna fighting hard despite difficult circumstances.

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.

Sunday’s programme opens with Qualifying 2 at 09:05 CEST ahead of Race 2, which is due to get underway at 16:20 CEST.

Qualifying 1 begins on Saturday at 09:00 CEST, with the drivers split into Group A and Group B. Race 1, run over 30 minutes plus one lap, is scheduled to start at 12:55 CEST. 

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.
