Siddhartha Kumar F3 debut race
Siddhartha Kumar only 18 years of age made his debut race in the Michigan circuit in USA.
In testing Siddhartha Kumar found it hard to get into the groove of the F3 car but after some setup changes and getting laps under his belt he started to show some decent pace.
When it came to crunch time in quali, his manager said the following words, "Just stay calm and focused, get the car in one piece. This is your first race everyone has low expectations prove them that you are capable to be a good driver." Siddhartha Kumar qualified 18th out of 30 showing that he has decent pace. Siddhartha Kumar said, "i am very surprised with my pace hopefully i can move up a few places in the race"
The race went well for the young 18 year old moving up 2 places to 16th before his pitstop on lap 24. Siddhartha gave it his all and moved back up to 16th before the safety car was deployed. After the restart he moved up to 15th and stayed 15th with a safety car finish to the race. Siddhartha said he didn't expect to finish that high up the field and this result here shows his potential
