The fourth and final round of the UAE F4 Series has concluded in Qatar, marking the end of my first full experience in this championship.

Overall, it was a positive weekend. From the practice sessions, I had a good pace and felt increasingly confident and comfortable in the car. I finished P16 in Race 1 and P17 in both Race 2 and Race 3.

Beyond the final positions, the weekend confirmed the progress we have been making. In Race 2 and Race 3, the opening laps were not ideal and I lost a few positions, which meant I had to fight back through the field with several overtakes. This inevitably affected the final results, but the pace was consistent and the work done with the team throughout the weekend was positive.

This brings my first experience in the UAE F4 Series to an end – a journey that allowed me to grow, gain valuable mileage, and build strong foundations together with the team.

Now we head back to Europe. Over the next two months, we will complete several test sessions in preparation for the 2026 season, where I will compete in the Italian Formula 4 Championship and the Euro 4 Championship, both starting in early May.

A few days to recover, then back to work to prepare as best as possible for the next challenges ahead.
