Feeder series heads to North America

F1 Academy and Formula 2 are back for Rounds 2 and 3 of their perspective calendars in Montreal this weekend.

Due to the cancellations of Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, F1 Academy hasn’t been on track since Shanghai but will return to Montreal for three races. An opening race Saturday morning, the reverse grid race Saturday afternoon and then the main race on Sunday.

Emma Felbermayr shot to the top of the standings after a stunning drive to victory at round 1 in Shanghai, Red Bull’s Alisha Palmowski is second just six points adrift from the top spot.

This will be the last round until July where the drivers can score points and make a difference to their championship before they head to Silverstone.

Formula 2 will hit the track in North America for their second ever time. With Montreal being a new track for drivers, it will be interesting to see how they fair.

Nikola Tsolov is still leading the championship heading into this round but only by one point from Gabriele Minì after he was taken out during the Miami feature race last time out.

Rafael Câmara sits on the same points as Minì (34) and the Formula 3 champion will be looking to capitalise this and try to get ahead of his two main rivals this weekend.

Alex Dunne is still yet to complete a feature race this season after his unlucky run of races since Abu Dhabi last year.

Can the feeder series have a clean weekend or will the wall of champions have other ideas?
