Lia Block will be happy to get off the mark with points scoring in Miami, after finishing in P10 in Race 2. The 17-year old Williams driver qualified in P11 and P12, but was left disappointed after spinning after overtaking Jessica Edgar whilst in the fight for points. The spin saw Lia Block tumble down the order, and ended up in P15.
However, Block fought back in Race 2, and avoided any incidents to finish in P11. After a number of penalties were handed out to drivers in front of her, Block was promoted to P10. Scoring points for the first time is always a poignant moment in a driver’s career, and the American will be hoping to build on this throughout the rest of the F1 Academy season.
