Juan Francisco's comeback was a success! The Art-Line Virage driver simply had the perfect weekend. Three poles and three victories handed the Argentinian the championship lead on a silver platter.

However, the N°6 driver had a scare in qualifying. Twice, he went through the gravel trap on the last corner, causing a red flag, before setting the fastest time. In the race, he was imperious, masterfully handling all the hazards.

In Race 1, Enzo Richer crashed out at Turn 5. Richer, who had been leading the overall standings prior to his arrival in Tuscany, was on the attack for second place. Forced to retire, the Formula Motorsport resident got his meeting off to the worst possible start. He made up for it with two podium finishes (2nd in Race 2, 3rd in Race 3), but was never able to fight for victory.

The Art-Line Virage team also enjoyed a collective triumph. Behind the sparkling success of Juan Francisco Soldavini, newcomer Alexander Abkhazava took three podiums. The Kazakh even tried to take the lead at the start of Race 3 by outrunning his team-mate, but to no avail.

In the F3R 13'' Gentlemen class, each race had its winner. Championship leader Frédéric Boillot (Race Motorsport) won Race 1. In his first weekend in the championship in 2024, Laurent Wutrich (Lamo Racing) handed Race 2 to Lamo Racing. Accident-prone from the start on Friday and forced to watch Saturday morning's race from the pit lane, Aubin Robert-Prince ended the round in the best possible way with victory in Race 3.

Lopez Nano dominated the FR2.0 category. The young TS Corse resident set an exceptional pace right from the start. As proof, the Argentinean had the luxury of starting from the front row in Race 1, ahead of the 13" F3R pack! He logically won three times ahead of Alain Bucher. Thierry Malhomme and Thierry Aimard also finished on the podium.
