Clean Sweep by Olli Caldwell at Vallelunga as he takes 3/3 Pole Positions & 3/3 Wins!

Amazing, outstanding, perfect. There are many words that can be used to describe Olli Caldwell’s weekend at Vallelunga, where PREMA Theodore Racing lined-up for the penultimate round of the 2018 Italian Formula 4 season. The British racer really put it all together at the Roman venue and showed his full potential by delivering three pole positions and then beating the field to P1 in all three races, effectively leading every single lap this weekend. As a result, he gained ground in standings, getting closer and closer to the leading pair.
Also making gains this weekend in terms of the championship was Enzo Fittipaldi. The Brazilian prospect is still second in the series but trimmed his gap down to 9 lengths. With 75 points still available at Mugello, the hunt for the title is far from over. Gianluca Petecof also brought home some serious silverware, scoring his second overall podium finish of the season. In race 2 and 3, the Brazilian rookie then proceeded to take home two more top-5s.

Emirati racer Amna Al Qubaisi had a positive weekend too despite being forced to retire due to a racing incident in Race 1. The young female rookie finished 16th in race 2 before breaking into the top-15 in the final heat.
