Jehan Daruvala finishes P5 in the Formula 2 Feature Race at Monza. The race was filled with wheel to wheel battles and plenty of close contact for the Indian driver. Daruvala started P2 on the grid, but lost positions going into turn 1 on the opening lap to Guanyu Zhou and Liam Lawson. A sudden safety car on lap 8 saw the front of the pack dive into the pits for new rubber and Daruvala came out ahead of Lawson.
After the restart, Guanyu Zhou and Daruvala battled it out for the second position and in the end Daruvala had to concede the position. In the latter stages of the race, Daruvala lost pace and had dropped to P5 behind Théo Pourchaire and a charging Dan Ticktum.
Jehan took home 10 points from the race and currently has 71 points under his belt after the Monza weekend. The next round of Formula 2 is at the Sochi Autodrom, Russia on September 24.
