Exciting weekend who has lived in the Motorland Aragon, on the occasion of the first meeting of the Formula Renault 3.5, that has seen the victories of Alexander Rossi and Kevin Korjus. The United States, in addition, leaves Spain with the lead of the Championship under the arm.
Rossi lived an intense battle for the leadership of the first race with Daniil Move once Robert Wickens, who had the pole, was long at the first corner. Rossi and Move were fighting for victory until lap 12, when Rossi made advancing dramatically.
On the goal line, none of the two pilots wanted to give up, and saw a movement reminiscent of which was between Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost in the Grand Prize of Portugal of 1988. Some teams had to lift their slates, approaching the car from Rossi dangerously to the wall.
In the end, Move lost swerve and fell to fifth place, surpassed upon the end by Albert Costa, who "debut" EPIC racing, won the fourth position, behind Wickens and Panciatici, that acompanaro the winner Alexander Rossi in the podium of the first race of the year.
The second race took a completely different story. kevin korjus, qualified in second position on the grid for the second race, had a brilliant career, without any errors, and became, in his 18 years, three months and eight days, the pilot youngest to win a race in the Formula Renault 3.5.
The Estonian had no rival, and not even Rossi could reach him, despite the efforts made, which ended in second position. The podium completed one of our own, Albert Costa, who was struggling with Korjus at the start of career, but problems with the brakes delayed you.
Catalan was formed with the podium in a circuit which is not of his favorites, although it is the "home" race. With everything, it is the third in the overall standings and only a point separated from Robert Wickens, second classified. Rossi, for its part, is very prominent, 15 points ahead of Wickens.
The next meeting of the Championship will be the last weekend of may at the circuit of Spa-Francorchamps. No doubt, another weekend of fantastic careers ahead for the World Series by Renault, which hopefully that Albert Costa can achieve even better results.
