Savelyev recovers to P13

First race of Formula Indy Series in iRacing came to a close at Zandvoort. Field of 41 drivers and a caution. PromixFlame Team are being presented by Alexey Savelyev at this championship and it was a tough ride: qualifying on P22, then avoiding starting wrecks to find himself at P14 only to spin at T4 and drop to P25, damaging his front wing after his opponent braked too early.

Savelyev: “Yeah I mean if you look at the result, even with a field of 41 drivers P13 is not the result we came for. But if you take into consideration that I race at 4am, setup\track combination wasn’t my thing really and I lost a lot of time on damaging my front wing it is a good recovery. Could’ve easily been P7 or somewhere in the top 10, but was slightly unlucky. But well, at least I got some ballsy overtaking done. Regarless, moving on, need to improve my qualifying pace and then try to minimize those spins on cold tires under braking. Goal for Mid-Ohio next week will be to hit top 5 as it is one of my favourite tracks, so I hope fixed setup suits me and we’ll fight at the top.”
