Maya Weug’s hopes took a hit with that formation-lap collision in Race 1, but she still charged back onto the podium in Race 2 and pushed the fight all the way to the final laps of the season.<br /><br />On the other side of the garage, Chloe Chambers delivered the dream home result: pole position and a lights-to-flag victory in Race 2 under the Vegas lights, signing off her F1 Academy chapter with a calm, controlled win on home soil.
