Penalty costs Dunne and hands Camara Baku F2 win
A five-second penalty costs Alex Dunne a second Formula 2 victory in Azerbaijan, and hands the win to title rival Rafael Camara.
In the Azerbaijan Formula 2 Grand Prix, Alex Dunne secured first place but was penalized with a five-second time penalty for crossing the white line on the pit lane entry during a tyre change. The penalty allowed title rival Rafael Camara to win the race, handing Dunne third place and a loss of 18 points in the standings. Dunne had previously dominated the first feature race of the weekend, winning on Friday and finishing third in the sprint race.
Despite the setback, Dunne remains in third place in the championship with a seven-point gap to Camara. The final two races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi are in doubt due to the ongoing Middle East conflict, potentially impacting the season's conclusion at Imola or another location.
