Weekend Debrief: The roar of the Tatuus cars accompanies another action-packed weekend
Hockenheim, Brno and Puebla: three venues, with titles decided, victories celebrated and new protagonists emerging.The weekend brought together three very different racing scenarios, united by one common element: Tatuus cars once again took centre stage in Formula Regional and Formula 4. From Hockenheim to Brno and Puebla, the title battles followed different paths, with important victories, new protagonists and championships both decided and still open.
FREC
The 2026 FIA Formula Regional European Championship could hardly have produced a more closely fought finale. At Hockenheim, venue for the eighth and final round of the season, the Drivers’ Championship was still contested by four protagonists: Emanuele Olivieri (R-ace GP), Kean Nakamura-Berta (PREMA Racing), Sebastian Wheldon (MP Motorsport) and Rashid Al Dhaheri (R-ace GP).
The first verdict of the weekend came with Jan Przyrowski’s (RPM) victory in Race 1. It was the Polish driver’s first success of the season and made him the first Polish winner in the history of the category. Kean Nakamura-Berta and Rashid Al Dhaheri joined him on the podium, while Emanuele Olivieri retained the championship lead ahead of the final race.
All the pressure was therefore concentrated on Sunday. Wheldon secured pole position, with Nakamura-Berta alongside him and Olivieri starting from the second row, while Al Dhaheri lined up 13th. The MP Motorsport driver took the lead at the start and held it until the chequered flag, claiming his fourth victory of the season, more than any other driver in the championship.
Behind him, Olivieri found the pace and position needed to finish second and secure the title. At just 18 years old , the R-ace GP, and F1 Audi junior, driver completed a season already made even more significant by his Rookie Championship success at Imola. Olivieri finished ahead of Wheldon and Nakamura-Berta, becoming only the second Italian in history to win the FIA Formula Regional European Championship, following in the footsteps of Kimi Antonelli.
The result at Hockenheim meant even more for R-ace GP . The team had already secured the Teams’ Championship after the opening race of the weekend and, with Olivieri’s title, completed a historic clean sweep. For the first time in its history, the team won the Drivers’, Teams’ and Rookie Championships in the same season.
This was how the Tatuus T-326 brought its first FIA Formula Regional European Championship season to a close: 17 races, 11 different winners and a title fight that remained open until the final round, before one team ultimately claimed all three available championships.
F4 CEZ
The penultimate round of the 2026 F4 Central European Zone season, held at Autodrom Brno, further strengthened Elia Weiss’ (Jenzer Motorsport) position at the top of the standings and confirmed Jenzer Motorsport’s particularly strong form. The team won all four races of the weekend, with Weiss taking two victories, while Theo Borenstein and Georgiy Zasov added one win each.
Weiss opened and closed the weekend on the top step of the podium. In Race 1, the Jenzer driver started from third and quickly moved into the lead, finishing ahead of teammate Max Karhan (Jenzer Motorsport) and Simon Rechenmacher (Cram Motorsport) . His second victory came in Race 4, this time from pole position, with Weiss leading Borenstein and Karhan while also setting the fastest lap.
Between Weiss’ two wins came victories for Borenstein and Zasov . The Czech driver claimed Race 2 at his home circuit, holding off Karhan throughout the race and completing an all-Jenzer podium alongside teammate Markas Silkunas. For Zasov, meanwhile, Brno delivered his first F4 CEZ victory of the season . Starting from pole in Race 3, he maintained the lead to the finish despite constant pressure from Weiss, who crossed the line just 0.310 seconds behind.
Brno represented another important step towards the title for Weiss. With two victories added to his tally, the Jenzer driver moved to 299 points and extended his advantage over Borenstein to 42 points. Karhan remains third with 240 points.
The Rookie classification is also still open, with Markas Silkunas leading Rechenmacher and Zasov. With just one round remaining, Brno therefore left several important battles unresolved.
Standings:
- Elia Weiss (Jenzer Motorsport) – 299 points - Theo Borenstein (Jenzer Motorsport) – 247 points - Max Karhan (Jenzer Motorsport) – 240 points
The 2026 season will conclude at the Hungaroring at the end of October, where the final F4 CEZ titles will be decided.
F4 NACAM
The Puebla weekend gave fresh momentum to the F4 NACAM title battle, with Alex Bobadilla (Alessandros Racing) still leading the standings but Alan Zezatti (Alessandros Racing) closing the gap.
Zezatti claimed both pole position and victory in Race 1, beating Bobadilla and Mariano Alatorre to complete an all-Alessandros Racing podium. The following two races produced two more winners: Oliver Trejo secured his second victory of the season in Race 2, while Alatorre claimed his first win of the year in Race 3.
Bobadilla now holds a 46-point advantage over Zezatti, while Trejo sits third, 95 points behind the championship leader.
At the wheel of the Tatuus T-421, the championship protagonists added another chapter to the 2026 season, with the title battle remaining open ahead of the next round.
Standings:
- Alex Bobadilla (Alessandros Racing) - Alan Zezatti (Alessandros Racing) - Mariano Alatorre (Alessandros Racing)
The next F4 NACAM event will take place at Autódromo Miguel E. Abed from 2 to 4 October.

Weekend Preview: Brno, Hockenheim and Puebla Write the Next Chapters of the Tatuus Season
From the penultimate round of the F4 CEZ to the FREC finale, via a new round of NACAM, Tatuus cars are preparing for a race weekend spread across three very different venues.Each event brings something different: for some, it is time to defend an advantage; for others, an opportunity to reshuffle the order, while others can seize the chance to take a step forward and build momentum in their respective campaigns. From F4 CEZ to FREC and F4 NACAM, the upcoming weekend will once again bring together very different championships and racing environments, all featuring Tatuus single-seaters on track.
FREC
Hockenheim will host the final round of the 2026 FIA Formula Regional European Championship, with four drivers still in contention for the title. On the 4.574 km German circuit, the final 56 points of the season will be up for grabs, with Emanuele Olivieri (R-ace GP) leading the standings, Sebastian Wheldon (MP Motorsport) 20 points behind, Kean Nakamura-Berta (PREMA Racing) 25 points off the lead and Rashid Al Dhaheri (R-ace GP) 35 points adrift.
Olivieri’s position is the result of a season built primarily on consistency. The Italian driver has scored eight podiums in the 17 races held so far, including two wins, five second-place finishes and one third place. His victory at Imola, his second of the season after Monza, also allowed him to secure the Rookie title one round early.
Behind him, Wheldon has built his campaign around three victories, two of which came in the same weekend at Zandvoort, along with a win at Paul Ricard. Nakamura-Berta has also claimed three victories and led the standings before the Imola round, while Al Dhaheri occupied the top spot midway through the season before adding his third win in Hungary.
The picture remains particularly open when looking at the championship as a whole: five different drivers have led the standings and there have been no fewer than ten different race winners across the 17 races held. Among them is Oleksandr Bondarev (Van Amersfoort Racing) , who converted pole position into victory on his category debut at Imola. The Ukrainian driver will be back on the grid at Hockenheim, while Reno Francot (CL Motorsport), Salim Hanna (PREMA Racing), Alexandre Munoz (ART Grand Prix), Maksimilian Popov (Trident Motorsport) and Yuki Sano (R-ace GP) complete the list of race winners this season.
Hockenheim will also decide the Team Trophy title, with R-ace GP holding a 106-point advantage over MP Motorsport. It will therefore be the final chapter of a season that has seen the Tatuus T-326 make its first appearance in the FIA Formula Regional European Championship, taking on the category’s major European events.
Weekend schedule:
Saturday, September 12 Qualifying 1 – 09:10 Race 1 – 13:00
Sunday, September 13 Qualifying 2 – 09:40 Race 2 – 16:10
Both Hockenheim races will be broadcast across more than 200 territories and live on the official FIA Formula Regional European Championship YouTube channel.
F4 CEZ
The fifth round of the 2026 season brings the Tatuus T-421 to Autodrom Brno for the penultimate round of the F4 Central European Zone Championship. With 150 points still available between Brno and the season finale at the Hungaroring, the championship remains open to several possible scenarios, starting at the top of the standings.
The top four drivers, from Elia Weiss (Jenzer Motorsport) to Max Karkhan (Jenzer Motorsport) , are separated by just 45 points. Adding further interest to the picture is the fact that five different drivers have won at least one race so far: Weiss has claimed six victories during the season, three of them in the latest round at Autodrom Most. Alongside him, David Walther (Maffi Racing) and Theo Borenstein (Jenzer Motorsport) have each scored three wins, Karhan has two, while Simon Rechenmacher (Cram Motorsport) secured his first championship victory at Slovakia Ring. And the mathematics widens the group even further: nine drivers can still fight for the title.
The size of the entry list also makes Brno a particularly busy event, with the provisional list featuring 36 cars. Free Practice and Qualifying will therefore be split into two groups, while the weekend will feature four races on the 5.4 km circuit.
In the Women’s Trophy, Mathilda Paatz (Mathilda Racing) and Ella Häkkinen (Jenzer Motorsport) are separated by just seven points, while Jenzer Motorsport leads the Teams’ Championship.
Weekend schedule:
Friday, September 11 Qualifying 1 – 15:20 Qualifying 2 – 15:50
Saturday, September 12 Race 1 – 09:35 Race 2 – 14:25
Sunday, September 13 Race 3 – 09:00 Race 4 – 15:05
All F4 CEZ races will be broadcast live on the championship’s official YouTube channel.
F4 NACAM
The Mexico Super Fan will be the next stop on the NACAM Formula 4 Championship calendar, with the series heading to the Autodromo Miguel E. Abed in Amozoc, Puebla, this weekend.
At the wheel of the Tatuus T-421, Alex Bobadilla, Alan Zezatti, Oliver Trejo, Alex Popow Jr. and Fernando Rivera are preparing for a new challenge at the Mexican circuit, with Bobadilla so far showing the most consistent form and therefore emerging as the benchmark of the group.
The young drivers will have two opportunities to fight for victory during Saturday’s programme.
Weekend schedule:
Saturday, September 12 Race 1 – 11:35 Race 2 – 14:35

Weekend Debrief: the cards are reshuffled, revealing a new side of the season
Imola, Croft, Donington Park and Interlagos: four different stages of the same weekend, between confirmations, debuts and several challengesFrom Imola to Donington Park, via Croft and Interlagos, the weekend offered four very different ways of experiencing competition. Victories built from the first corner, comebacks, immediately competitive debuts and championship standings taking a different shape: here is what happened across the Tatuus categories on track.
FREC
The Imola weekend reshuffled the top end of the FIA Formula Regional European Championship standings. Emanuele Olivieri (R-ace GP) made the most of the penultimate round of the season, taking a win and a second place that allowed him to arrive at the final round as championship leader. These results also secured him the Rookie title with one race still to go.
Pole position came in Saturday’s qualifying session, with Olivieri ahead of Tomass Stolcermanis (PREMA Racing) and Marcus Saeter (G4 Racing) . In Race 1, the Italian driver maintained the lead all the way to the chequered flag, taking his second win of the season as well as the fastest lap.

Bondarev then secured pole for Race 3 and ended the weekend with his first championship victory. The Van Amersfoort Racing driver became the tenth different winner of the season. Olivieri finished second, followed once again by Francot, who claimed his second podium of the weekend.
Following the Imola round, Olivieri now leads the standings ahead of Wheldon, while Kean Nakamura-Berta (PREMA Racing) sits in third.

The Donington Park round saw Deagen Fairclough among the main protagonists of the weekend, with two wins in the first two races. The Hitech driver started the weekend by taking pole position for Race 2, while Nikita Bedrin secured pole for Race 1, once again confirming himself among the category’s leading drivers.
In Race 1, Fairclough managed to pass Bedrin on the opening lap, but the VRD driver remained within reach throughout the second half of the race, making several attempts to regain the lead. Fairclough nevertheless held onto first place until the chequered flag, taking his fourth win of the season. Bedrin finished second, while Abbi Pulling completed the podium in third.
Fairclough repeated the result in Race 2, securing his second consecutive win of the weekend. Leon Wilson brought Arden home in second, followed by Martin Molnar in third for Rodin Motorsport. Lucas Fluxá finished fourth, maintaining his position among the top three in the overall standings.
The third race of the weekend had a different winner. Starting from third, Rowan Campbell-Pilling took the lead at the first corner and, after several position changes during the opening stages, regained first place and held it to the finish. The Xcel Motorsport driver therefore claimed his first GB3 victory. Peter Bouzinelos finished second, while Abbi Pulling secured her second podium of the weekend in third. Starting from 12th, Fairclough recovered to finish fifth.
For Pulling , the two third-place finishes were among the most consistent results of the weekend, with points scored in both races in which she reached the podium. Fairclough , meanwhile, left Donington with two wins and a fifth-place finish, while Bedrin retained the championship lead.
The standings after Donington Park:
1. Nikita Bedrin (VRD Racing) – 392 points 2. Martin Molnar (Rodin Motorsport) – 313 points 3. Lucas Fluxá (Xcel Motorsport) – 305 points
The next round will take place at Brands Hatch from September 24 to 27.
GB4
Donington Park marked Yani Stevenheydens ’ GB4 debut, as he stepped in for Emmilio Valentino Del Grosso at Elite Motorsport . The Belgian driver immediately found his pace, securing both available pole positions in qualifying and ending the weekend with a win and a third-place finish.
In Race 1, Fred Green took advantage of Stevenheydens’ slow start to move into the lead. The Elite Motorsport driver then held first place all the way to the finish, securing his fourth victory of the season. Alex O’Grady finished second, while Stevenheydens completed the podium on his category debut.
Race 2 saw Stevenheydens turn pole position into his first GB4 victory. The Belgian managed the race despite constant pressure from Green , who finished third. Enzo Hallman completed the podium in second.
The final race went to Josh McLean , who claimed his fourth seasonal victory in reverse-grid races. Starting from pole, the Pace Performance driver maintained the lead to the finish, ahead of Conor Grant and his teammate John O’Donnell , who secured his first GB4 podium.

1. Alex O’Grady (KMR Sport) – 373 points 2. Fred Green (Elite Motorsport) – 324 points 3. Dayton Coulthard (Douglas Motorsport) – 290 points

Weekend Debrief: An Action-Packed Weekend at Snetterton and Markham
Overtakes, battles and incidents defined an exciting weekend for the GB4 and USF Pro Championships.It was a busy and eventful weekend for the 65 Tatuus single-seaters competing at Snetterton (GB4) and Markham (USF Pro 2000 and USF2000) . The Canadian venue made its debut on the IndyCar Series and USF Pro Championships calendar, replacing the historic Toronto street circuit, and delivered plenty of action and unexpected twists.
GB4 It was an almost perfect weekend for Alex O'Grady (KMR Sport) , who extended his championship lead with two victories. In Race 1, the Irishman capitalized on the retirement of pole-sitter and closest rival Fred Green (Elite Motorsport) to secure the win. O'Grady then repeated the feat in Race 2 thanks to a flawless start.
The third race of the weekend, traditionally run with a reversed grid, also marked the 100th race in GB4 Championship history and provided no shortage of drama. Multiple incidents and race interruptions culminated in a red flag that brought proceedings to an early end, handing Josh McLean (Pace Performance) his third victory of the season ahead of Enzo Hallman (Hillspeed) and Emmilio Valentino Del Grosso (Elite Motorsport) .
O'Grady therefore strengthens his championship advantage to 70 points over Green and 80 over Dayton Coulthard. The GB4 Championship will next head to the historic Donington Park circuit on September 5-6.
USF Pro Championships Markham's inaugural race weekend began with an organizational setback that forced all categories to cancel their Friday track sessions, allowing the completion of several safety-related operations around the circuit.
As a result, the weekend schedule was significantly revised. The two Road to Indy series involved were forced to reduce their race mileage and, most notably, abandon qualifying sessions altogether. Starting grids were therefore determined by the championship standings for Race 1 and by the fastest lap times recorded in Race 1 for Race 2.
Once the first green flag waved, however, the circuit proved its worth, delivering plenty of excitement and entertainment.
USF Pro 2000 The headline story in the premier USF Pro Championships category was the absence of Leonardo Escorpioni (Turn 3 Motorsport) . The championship leader coming into the round was unable to travel to Canada, opening the door for his closest challenger, Jack Jeffers (Exclusive Autosport) , to take advantage. A victory in Race 1 followed by a second-place finish allowed Jeffers to move to the top of the standings.
Race 2 victory went to Andres Cardenas (Jay Howard Driver Development) , who secured the first USF Pro 2000 win of his career in North America after already claiming five podium finishes this season. G3 Argyros (Pabst Racing) and Thomas Schrage (TJ Speed) also celebrated podium finishes over the course of the weekend.
The USF Pro 2000 field will now enjoy a single weekend break before returning on August 29-30 for the season's second oval event at the Milwaukee Mile.
USF 2000 USF2000 produced the most dramatic races of the weekend, with numerous contacts and incidents, some of which had a significant impact on the championship battle.
The first chaotic moment in Race 1 involved Eddie Beswick (Pabst Racing) , who arrived in Canada third in the championship standings and therefore started near the front of the grid. After contact with Joao Vergara (VRD Racing) , Beswick dropped to the back of the field but mounted an impressive recovery to finish seventh. The victory in the opening race of the weekend went to championship leader Sebastian Garzon (DEForce Racing) , ahead of his closest challenger Brad Majman (Pabst Racing) .
Majman then struck back in Race 2, claiming victory and gaining valuable points in the standings. The race proved even more difficult and chaotic than the first, with numerous incidents throughout the field, including one involving Garzon.
With just one round remaining, the championship is set for a thrilling finale. Garzon continues to lead the standings with 338 points, while Majman is close behind on 325. Their decisive showdown will take place on September 24 at Road America.

However, Tatuus single-seaters never stop racing. There are only a handful of weekends throughout the year when Tatuus cars are completely absent from the track, and this mid-August weekend will be no exception, with more than 60 Tatuus single-seaters taking to the circuit across three different categories at Snetterton (UK) and Markham (Canada).
GB4 The second half of the GB4 Championship season gets underway at Snetterton, following a dramatic event at Silverstone that left the title battle finely balanced at the top of the standings. Irish driver Alex O’Grady (KMR Sport) arrives in Norfolk as championship leader, holding a 25-point advantage over Fred Green (Elite) and a 42-point lead over Luke Hilton (Nitrous Competition ADM Racing) .

Race 1 will follow later in the afternoon at 14:55 local time, while Sunday’s program features two races at 09:10 and 14:40 local time.
All three races will be streamed live on the official MotorSport Vision YouTube channel (MSV TV) .
USF Pro Championships It is a back-to-back event for the Road to Indy ladder, which headed straight to Canada after last weekend’s races in Portland. The championship will compete in Markham, just a few miles from downtown Toronto, once again alongside the IndyCar Series.
USF Pro 2000 Brazilian driver Leonardo Escorpioni (Turn 3 Motorsport) arrives at the event as championship leader, buoyed by four victories in the last five races. Chasing him are Jack Jeffers (Exclusive Autosport) , 25 points behind, and G3 Argyros (Pabst Racing) , who trails by 43 points.
The weekend begins with testing on Friday morning, followed by qualifying at 13:00 local time. Two races are scheduled: the first on Saturday at 13:00 local time and the second on Sunday at 10:25 local time.
USF 2000 At Portland, Oliver Wheldon (VRD Racing) secured an impressive double victory and will be aiming to continue his charge up the championship standings. In what has already been an outstanding rookie season, he has collected five podium finishes so far.
However, it is Sebastian Garzon (DEForce Racing) who arrives in Canada at the top of the standings. After claiming his ninth podium finish of the season in Portland, Garzon will look to extend his championship advantage during this penultimate round of the year over the two Australian drivers from Pabst Racing, Brad Majman and Eddie Beswick .
The USF2000 schedule closely mirrors that of its sister category, with testing taking place on Friday morning, qualifying on Friday at 12:00 local time, and races scheduled for Saturday (08:50 local time) and Sunday (09:25 local time).
All qualifying sessions and races from the USF Pro Championships will be streamed live on the championship’s official YouTube channel .
