PREMA Racing put on a dominant display in the opening round of the Italian Formula 4 Championship. The team took two dominant wins in the heat races before Turkish racer Alp Aksoy led the Final from start to finish to secure the early lead and underline a spectacular season start.

Kean Nakamura-Berta was crowned 2025 Italian Formula 4 Champion with PREMA Racing at Misano, in a busy weekend that saw him clinch the Driver Championship with two races still to go. The Japanese-Slovakian racer had a blistering start this year, with five consecutive wins, and continued to stay on top after that. Misano carried on that trend with a grand finale. After the early podiums of Round 7 that secured the title, in the rerun of Imola’s postponed Race 2, Nakamura-Berta claimed his ninth win of the year with an incredible last-lap move. He is the eighth driver to win the series under the team's banner. PREMA Racing had already secured its ninth Italian Formula 4 Team Championship back in the penultimate round at Barcelona.

Evan Giltaire (ART Grand Prix) sealed his second career win in the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine by triumphing in Race 2 at Misano, following his second-place finish in Race 1. The French driver now leads the championship standings after a commanding performance on Sunday afternoon.

It was a memorable day at Misano for Trident Motorsport, as Matteo De Palo secured the team’s first-ever victory in the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine. The Italian driver delivered a commanding performance, building his win from a strong qualifying session earlier in the morning, which earned him a front-row start alongside pole-sitter Freddie Slater (Prema Racing).

Rafael Camara, Andrea Kimi Antonelli, Dino Beganovic, and before them Grégoire Saucy, Formula Regional builds champions. A quick look at the series’ roll of honour reveals a growing legacy of excellence, with many former drivers now competing in Formula 1, including Antonelli, Isack Hadjar, and Gabriel Bortoleto. Co-organised by ACI Sport and Alpine Racing since 2021, the championship now enters its fifth season, kicking off this weekend at Misano, an all-new venue for the series, with a 26-car grid representing ten teams.
