Qatar weekend belonged to two very different McLaren-and-Mercedes stories, with RothNz taking his first sprint victory of the season before Box-for-inters answered with a commanding feature-race win. Rollie followed RothNz home in the sprint, while Tbran completed the podium for Williams; in the feature, RothNz finished second and Rankupwithme completed the podium after another late charge on Rollie... The sprint was effectively decided at Turn 2. Rollie made contact with the rear of pole-sitter Box-for-inters, sending the Mercedes into a spin and creating a pile-up of cars trying to avoid the aftermath. RothNz emerged untouched from the mess triggered by his teammate (what a coinchidence), inherited the lead and never looked back. Rollie recovered brilliantly to second, while Tbran, wildcarding for Energetic, secured third. TrenchGhost came through fourth, with Korka6_cz fifth. Box-for-inters recovered to sixth despite the opening-lap drama and a heavy penalty, while Bards, Rankup, El...

Box-for-inters broke through for his maiden A1881 victory at Zandvoort, leading home RothNz and Rankupwithme in a race that belonged almost entirely to Mercedes. After showing flashes of pace during weekday practice, Box-for-inters produced a commanding performance in the 100% Dutch GP, using an early undercut to disappear from the fight and eventually finish 19 seconds clear... There were no Safety Cars to shake things up, leaving strategy and outright pace to decide the afternoon. Box-for-inters made the most of both. Whatever preparation was done behind the scenes clearly worked, as the Mercedes driver controlled the race from pole and converted his first A1881 start at the front into a landmark first win. Behind him, RothNz delivered the performance of the day. Starting fourth, the McLaren driver stretched his second stint all the way to finish line and was rewarded with his first A1881 podium since his Aston Martin podium at RedBul Ring, back in Season 17. That is a very long wai...

Season 24 ended where it began, on Spain and with the same official podium. Rankupwithme capped off his championship-winning campaign with another pole and another victory at Madrid, leading home Yeshurrun and Bards in the official classification, while TrenchGhost stood on the third step of the podium on track after an impressive wildcard drive. With the wildcard rule limiting the points he could bring to Scaparro, however, the result was officially classified differently, but the visual of TrenchGhost celebrating a maiden A1881 podium was very much real... The Drivers' Championship had already found its owner in Baku, but the final podium picture on WDC is now complete: 🥇 Rankupwithme, 🥈 Bards19 and 🥉 Yeshurrun. Madrid delivered one last reminder of what this season was about. Rankup disappeared at the front early, while TrenchGhost, wildcarding for Scaparro, stunned the grid by matching the frontrunners in qualifying and looked every bit like a future full-time contender. His...

Rankupwithme may have arrived in Baku as the reigning champion-elect, but it was Bards who finally had the moment he had been chasing for five seasons. After a dramatic final two laps, Bards took his maiden A1881 victory, beating his teammate Rankupwithme in a Williams one-two, while Keon continued his extraordinary run with yet another podium. With the WDC and WCC already decided, the fight for the remaining championship medals now goes down to the season finale at Madring... Rankup backed up his championship credentials with a stunning pole, but Baku's Safety Cars turned the race into something of a lottery. An early intervention on Lap 5 shuffled the strategies before another Safety Car on Lap 21 left the field with barely two racing laps to settle everything. Bards had positioned himself perfectly and, with the Williams duo running flat-out towards the flag, launched the decisive attack down the final straight. After five seasons of near misses, there was no mistake this time. ...

Abu Dhabi gave a dominant winner and a champion constructor. Rankupwithme controlled proceedings from lights to flag to lead home Keon and Yeshurrun, while Williams duo of Rankup and Bards officially sealed their first-ever A1881 Constructors' Championship. With two rounds remaining, Rankup also moved another giant step toward claiming the Drivers' crown, while teammate Bards, absent after being wildcarded by JollyBoyJohn, will still celebrate his first Constructors' medal alongside him. The opening lap was impressively clean, with the entire field negotiating Turn 1 cleanly and resisting the temptation for over-ambitious heroics. From there, Rankup quickly established control. Even losing all game audio during the opening third of the race couldn't prevent the Williams driver from managing the race comfortably once the issue resolved itself. Behind him, the real entertainment came in the battle for the remaining podium places. Keon continued his remarkable adaptation t...

The final 100% race of Season 24 delivered another strategic thriller, and once again it was the Williams duo stealing the show. Rankupwithme claimed victory after withstanding relentless late pressure from teammate Bards, while Furios_Donyy56 secured his first A1881 podium for Haas in only his second full-time appearance. With another maximum score, Rankup now has one hand firmly on the championship crown as the season heads into its closing rounds... Williams looked untouchable all weekend. Rankup committed to an unconventional soft-to-hard strategy while much of the field leaned toward mediums, and it paid off brilliantly. After slicing through traffic following his first stop, he had built a commanding 19-second advantage before contact with a backmarker damaged his front wing and forced an unscheduled early stop. Suddenly the race was alive again as Bards, armed with tyres around 15 laps fresher, hunted down his teammate over the closing stages. And then... Bards happened. Just wh...

With the World Cup final forcing one of A1881's rare schedule changes, the timing caught championship leader Rankupwithme off guard, leaving the Williams star absent from the grid. That opened the door for one of the biggest shake-ups of Season 24. Yeshurrun seized the opportunity in brilliant fashion, claiming his maiden A1881 victory at Spa-Francorchamps ahead of Keon and Mamoodev, while Bards suffered heartbreaking last-lap drama that denied him what looked destined to be his own first A1881 career win... Although the forecast promised a dry Belgian Grand Prix, Spa once again reminded everyone why its weather can never be trusted. Light drizzle arrived after the opening laps, forcing strategic decisions that would define the race. Bards initially looked firmly in control despite delaying his switch to intermediates compared to Yeshurrun, but the Williams driver's race unraveled in the cruellest possible fashion. After managing the changing conditions superbly, he overlooked ...
