Lusail International Circuit

F4 Middle East Championship

1. Kean Nakamura-Berta

Kean Nakamura-Berta’s title hopes came to an end in Lusail despite a determined effort. After claiming his first win of the season in Round 4, he needed a perfect weekend to challenge the championship leader Emanuele Olivieri.

He started strong with a P2 finish in Race 1 but couldn't find a way past his rival. A charge from P9 to P4 in Race 2 kept his slim hopes alive, but he ultimately fell short, finishing P4 again in Race 3. To add to his disappointment, he lost second in the standings after being overtaken late in the race.

2. Chi Zhenrui

Chi Zhenrui showed strong pace but lacked the results to match. He made up eight places to finish P9 in Race 1 but struggled in Race 2, slipping from a front-row start to P9. He rebounded with a P7 finish in the final race, missing out on the rookies championship by a mere 6 points.

3. Tiago Rodrigues 

Tiago Rodrigues had a steady weekend, finishing P12 in Race 1 and improving to P7 in Race 2, marking one of his best performances of the season. He wrapped up the weekend with a P10 finish in Race 3, ending the season with a points haul.

4. Arjun Chheda 

Arjun Chheda endured a difficult round, retiring early in Race 1 due to a technical issue. He made up ground in Race 2 to finish P17 but couldn’t crack the top 15 in Race 3, ending P18.

5. Wang Yuzhe

Wang Yuzhe struggled at the back of the field once again. After a difficult Round 4 that included front-wing damage in the final race, he found himself outside the points again, finishing P17 and P19 in the first two races before ending his season with P21 in Race 3.

6. Fu Yuhao

Fu Yuhao, who showed flashes of speed with a P6 finish in Round 4, endured a frustrating weekend. A Race 1 crash forced him to retire, and despite making up ground in a chaotic Race 2 to finish P14, his struggles continued with a drop from P10 to P24 in Race 3.
