It was a weekend to forget for Emily De Heus in Miami. De Heus was left to rue her qualifying performances, which left her starting in P14 and P15 in Race 1 and 2 respectively.
The Dutch driver showed signs of improvement in Race 2, where she pulled off several overtakes to finish in P10. However, De Heus was penalised after the race for overtaking Lia Block off track at Turn 11. The Red Bull Ford driver was handed a five-second penalty, and dropped to P12 after the race.
Emily De Heus will be hoping for an improved weekend in Barcelona next time out. It’s a circuit she’s familiar with, and De Heus secured her maiden F1 Academy win there last year.
