Davide Rigon won the first ever SF race, leading from start to
finish for Chinese club Beijing Guoan. Duncan Tappy, who only found
out he was driving on Wednesday, came in third for Tottenham
Hotspur. However, the star of the race was Adrian Valles
(pictured), racing in Liverpool’s colours. After suffering
electrical problems in practice, which forced him to start from the
back of the grid, Valles powered through the puddles to finish
fifth.
The second race was won by Borja Garcia for Sevilla.
Valles improved on his first-race finish with a solid third place
(achieved despite starting 12th on the grid); Spurs’ Tappy showed
he will be a force in the series in finishing fifth. The results
mean Liverpool and Spurs lie joint second in the table, behind
Beijing Guoan.
