Piastri clinches second F3 victory in Barcelona to close championship gap

Oscar Piastri won his second race of the season by taking victory in the FIA Formula 3 race on Sunday morning.

The Australian made a magnificent start from fifth on the grid to find himself in the lead by Turn 4.

Despite two Safety Car periods, the PREMA driver collected the points for the fastest lap out of those in the top ten and managed the gap to a second over Alex Peroni in the runner-up position.

Following his reverse-grid pole, Matteo Nannini, the nephew of Formula 1 race-winner Alessandro Nannini, fended off the rest of the field behind to take his first podium in F3.
