Round 1 of the FREC Championship at the beautiful @redbullring ✔️
A weekend of fighting back. Our speed came a bit late—Qualy 2 was stronger, but there was definitely more on the table. In the race, I had a good start, but it turned chaotic with very few racing laps, which made it tough to move forward.
Now heading home for some school work, a few days to reset, and then straight back to work—we know we need to improve.
Big thanks to @rpm.team_ , all the team members, my mechanics, my engineer @michaelzpreston as always Forza Guel🇦🇹Primeira etapa do Campeonato FREC no belíssimo @redbullring ✔️
Um fim de semana de luta. Nossa velocidade chegou um pouco tarde — a Qualificação 2 foi mais forte, mas definitivamente havia mais para mostrar. Na corrida, fiz uma boa largada, mas tudo ficou caótico com poucas voltas de corrida, o que dificultou avançar.
Agora vou para casa para voltar a escola, alguns dias para descansar e depois de volta ao trabalho — sabemos que precisamos melhorar.
Muito obrigado à @rpm.team_, a todos os membros da equipe, meus mecânicos, meu engenheiro @michaelzpreston e, como sempre, Forza Guel🇧🇷#f1 #roadtof1 #f1dream #f1journey #teamguel🇧🇷 @dutchphotoagency 📸
Motorsport can be like this.
After a mega first race—showing strong pace and climbing from the back to the top 10 with +17 positions—the second race didn’t go our way. Tough start, but we fought back positions on lap 1. After the safety car restart, a spin right in front of me left nowhere to go… collected in it with three others.That’s racing.
Tomorrow we qualify better and fight at the front. Forza Guel🇦🇹O automobilismo pode ser assim.
Depois de uma primeira corrida incrível — mostrando um ritmo forte e subindo do fundo do grid para o top 10 com +17 posições — a segunda corrida não correu como esperávamos. Largada difícil, mas lutamos para recuperar posições na primeira volta. Após a relargada com o safety car, uma rodada bem na minha frente não me deixou para onde ir… acabei envolvido no acidente com outros três pilotos. É assim que são as corridas.
Amanhã vamos nos classificar melhor e lutar na frente. Forza Guel🇧🇷#f1 #roadtof1 #f1journey #f1dream #teamguel🇧🇷 @dutchphotoagency 📸



Interview with Costa Miguel


A) WHEN DID YOU START YOUR KARTING CAREER?

My father gave me an electric kart when I was two and we used to drive every weekend in front of our house in the Marina. By the time I was three, I had a real Go Kart and we went to the local track every weekend. I never looked back.

B) WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE KARTING LEVEL IN EUROPE?

It's simply the best in the world. Last year we raced our first race in Europe. I was still nine and I remember there being 100 kids. I thought I could do well, and my father said how we were there to make it to the final. If we managed to do that, it would've been impressive. I remember thinking he was crazy and that I needed to do better than that, but he was right. I ended up qualifying for my first final on my first attempt. I was P22 in Sarno and it was one of the best moments of my life. After that weekend I kept telling Papi that one race in Italy was like 10 in USA, and that I wanted to come back. That'show racing in Europe started and again, I never looked back. Even though the distance, money and time away from school and my father's time away from work make it really difficult, it's where you need to be if you want to make it in this sport in Europe.
