Winner of the main race at the Belgian round of Formula 2, Rafael Câmara already faces a new challenge this weekend. The feeder category to Formula 1 arrives at the Hungaroring circuit in Hungary for the ninth double-header of the year, and the Invicta Racing driver aims to move even closer to the top of the standings.
As the top points scorer at Spa-Francorchamps, where he won, started from pole, and set the fastest lap, in addition to taking sixth place in the Sprint, Câmara reached 125 points, 36 behind the championship leader. The Brazilian highlights the title fight, and also notes that the approach to the weekend in Hungary and the rest of the season will be similar to the other double-headers.
“Of course, it’s always good to be in contention. But at the end of the day, the approach is always quite similar. You end up focusing on yourself. There is still a long road ahead, and for that reason, I want to ensure that we will make the most of what we can control. I hope that, in the end, we’ll be in the fight for the title,” Rafael Câmara said.
The Brazilian is delivering one of the strongest campaigns in the Formula 2 season, with two wins, four podiums, six top-five finishes, and points in every round of the year. More than that, Câmara holds the pole position record for the year, with four pole starts secured in the last five double-headers.
The Formula 2 schedule in Hungary will begin on Friday, when the weekend’s only free practice and the qualifying session that will determine the starting grid are contested. Saturday will feature the Sprint at 9:15, while the main race is scheduled for 6:25 a.m. on Sunday. Sportv, Globoplay and F1TV will broadcast all activities.
