KUPISKIS: Team Abu Dhabi’s Mansoor Al-Mansoori powered his way into the lead in the 2022 UIM F2 World Championship today with a commanding victory in the Grand Prix of Lithuania.
After securing his first F2 pole position 24 hours earlier, Al-Mansoori produced an immaculate performance to claim his maiden Grand Prix success by 2.416 seconds from Sharjah Team’s Sami Seliö.
It was a mature and impressive display from the Emirati driver who has gradually grown in confidence since joining Team Abu Dhabi last season.
The result more than made up for Al-Mansoori’s disappointment in Lithuania last year when he was forced out of the race after being rammed from behind while chasing a podium finish. “I’m very happy, and I want to thank my team for all the hard work they put in to make this happen,” he said, before leaping from the pontoon into the water to celebrate his success.
