Colnaghi wins twice in Barcelona to claim title in Spanish Formula 4 Championship

Colnaghi wins twice in Barcelona to claim title in Spanish Formula 4 Championship

Italian Mattia Colnaghi was crowned champion of the Spanish Formula 4 Championship at the season finale, which took place from 8th to 10th November at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The KCL MP Motorsport driver produced an impressive burst at the end of the season, bagging a brace of victories in Jerez, Spain, at the start of October, before repeating the feat in Barcelona. With support from the Hankook Ventus Race, the rookie managed to achieve his full potential on the track and end the season ahead of the experienced Keanu Al Azhari (United Arab Emirates) in second place. In the end, just ten points separated the two rivals, who provided plenty of excitement and drama for the fans, particularly at the final two events. Over the course of the year, more than 40 drivers put their faith in Hankook’s reliable premium tyre, which provided all the Formula 4 cars with optimal grip and a consistently high performance.
