F2: France Preview, Predictions and How to Watch – Last Word On Motorsport

Circuit Paul Ricard in France is one of the fastest on the calendar and requires full commitment throughout the lap. Logan Sargeant is coming off back-to-back feature race victories and will be looking to keep that momentum up. Having failed to score in the last race, championship leader Drugovich will be determined to set that right.

The last time F2 raced here was in 2019 and it was won by Nyck De Vries, who since left for Formula E. The track is 5.842-km long with two DRS zones and a lot of overtaking opportunities for those brave enough.

The tires are different from the last time they were here. The track is also known to be reasonably high for degradation. This means getting the strategy right in the Feature Race will be paramount to finishing well.

No rain is expected this weekend, just extremely high temperatures. It will present its own challenges to the drivers who will be pushing for every position they can. Mistakes are not uncommon around here, but drivers must always remember the golden rule

Dont hit your teammate!

Drugovich maintains a relatively healthy lead, but Sargeant is on a charge and looking to close the gap further.

Formula 2 is more about the drivers aiming to step up to Formula 1 but the last races have moved the championship order around a bit. Serial winners Prema now sit in fourth a little adrift. Thanks to Sargents recent wins, Carlin is only one point off the top.

With the gap since F2 last raced here, not many of the drivers will have experience of the track. Potentially leading to anything happening. So far it has certainly been a fools game to predict what will happen but it doesnt stop us from trying!

With it effectively being Pourchaires home race then cannot look much further than him for the win.
