It was a bad weekend for Abbi Pulling at Silverstone

Another late submission due to RSI

Abbi Pulling adds top 6 finish to her tally in GB3 round at Silverstone

Abbi Pulling endured a frustrating home weekend at Silverstone as a combination of fierce midfield battles and mechanical issues prevented the Rodin Motorsport driver from capitalizing on the pace she had displayed early in the event.

She consistently featured inside the top two throughout Friday's practice sessions, ultimately ending the day second fastest.

Qualifying also proved encouraging. In the first session, Pulling steadily improved her pace, lowering her benchmark from a 1:51.1 to a 1:50.7 before producing a 1:50.440 lap that secured fourth on the grid for Race 1.

In the second qualifying session, she initially posted a 1:50.4 before finding another tenth with a 1:50.351, placing eighth for the second race.

Race 1: Starting fourth, she was immediately dragged into a chaotic multi‑car fight, slipping to fifth off the line and then being shuffled back to seventh as the pack ran three‑wide through the opening corners. She finished the race 6th

Race 2: she started seventh but a small moment in the high‑speed first sector dropped her to eighth, before Wilson and Jackes both found a way past, pushing her to tenth by lap four. She finished 10th.

Race 3: Her final race unravelled before it began, as a starter‑motor failure prevented her from taking her fifth‑place grid slot and forced a pit‑lane start. Despite the setback, she charged forward, catching and passing Fu within seven laps and later overtaking Pribyl as she carved through the field with strong pace. Just as another recovery drive was building, a rear‑suspension failure on lap 13 sent her into the gravel at Copse, ending her race prematurely. DNF.

She is now 9th with 142 points and 3 rounds left.

Ella Hakkinen takes back to back 5th places in 4th ever F4 weekend.

Late post due to RSI

Last Weekend the F4 CEZ championship resumed for its 4th round.

Ella took 5th place in the first 2 races!

Unfortunately she was taken out by a multi crash in race 3 as an innocent victim.

She sits 11th in the championship with 2 rounds left.

5th is her best result so far, scoring 2 5ths in her 4th ever weekend in cars looks very promising as an upward trend.
