Joshua D\u00fcrksen capped his strongest Formula 2\u00ae race to date with a commanding victory for AIX Racing in Sunday\u2019s Feature Race at the 2025 Formula 1\u00ae Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A four-time race winner this season, the Paraguayan driver converted his pace into a final P1 to close the year on a high and underline his status as one of the standout performers of the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following an action-packed qualifying session on Saturday, Arvid Lindblad lined up inside the top 10 and went on to finish ninth in the Feature Race, with fellow front-runners Jak Crawford and newly crowned Drivers\u2019 Champion Leonardo Fornaroli also featuring in the tightly packed battle in the midfield. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fornaroli\u2019s title, combined with a consistently strong year across both cars, ensured Invicta Racing also clinched the 2025 Teams\u2019 Championship, securing a clean sweep of the major Formula 2\u00ae honours for driver and team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the podium, D\u00fcrksen was joined by Roman Stan\u011bk and Gabriele Min\u00ec, who finished second and third respectively after a hard-fought race at the Yas Marina Circuit. A five-second time penalty for Dino Beganovic saw him classified fourth after initially running in a podium position, with Oliver Goethe completing the top five at the season finale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the final round on the 2025 FIA Formula 2 calendar, Abu Dhabi once again showcased the championship\u2019s role as a proven pathway to Formula 1, with multiple drivers already linked to or involved in F1 programmes and Free Practice outings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
