The Chinese Kang Ling (all Dallara Mercedes) finished on position 26 and 25.

„Altogether it was a good weekend for our team at the FIA Formula 3 European Championship in Monza“, said the team principal Peter Mücke about the results of his young drivers. „Mikkel did a good job and our other drivers also gave their best, but unfortunately they were unlucky at the fights in the middle of the field. If you’re not able to find the slipstream at the qualifying in Monza, your chances to score a position at the front of the field are not quite high and you might get into a scrum situation during the race. Anyway, the drivers are able to gather a lot of experience in those situations.“

The best placed Mücke pilot at the overall ranking of this high class rookie series is Maximilian Günther on position six, one place ahead Mikkel Jensen. Santino Ferrucci is on position 14 at the moment. Jensen is on position three of the rookie rankings ahead Günther. The Swede Felix Rosenqvist (Dallara Mercedes) won all three races on the 5.793 km long Grand-Prix track of Monza. The next season event of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship with the season runs 13, 14 and 15 is scheduled from 19th to 21st of June in Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium), in the main programme of the ADAC GT Masters.
