Electrical problem dashes Daruvala’s hopes in Spain

Jehan Daruvala

Indian racer Jehan Daruvala was left ruing his bad luck after an electrical problem denied him the chance to fight for victory in Sunday's F2 race.

The Red Bull-backed driver, fourth on the grid after a strong qualifying display on Friday, had chosen to start the race on the harder prime tyres, opting for the alternate strategy that would have seen him run a long first stint before his pitstop.

With most of his rivals starting on the less durable soft tyres, the decision would have paid dividends in the closing stages of the race, putting the Prema Racing driver in contention for the win.
