It was a weekend to remember for Van Amersfoort Racing, as the Dutch squad celebrated its 50th anniversary in style with a commanding one-two finish on home soil in Race 2 of the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine.

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.
