Franco Colapinto finished 13th in the Formula 2 sprint race of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. The Argentine driver's car was stuck on the grid when the traffic light turned green.
His Williams Academy teammate Zak O'Sullivan also pressed the accelerator without response in his gear. The safety car had to enter on that first lap, so Franco was able to accelerate and get to the back of the pack. He had to fight hand to hand with some rivals and climb some positions until he was 13th.
