The Mugello Circuit set the stage for another exciting race weekend for Omnia Racing, competing in the Italian Carrera Cup with rookie drivers Mattia Marchiante and Bati Yildirim.
Qualifying and Race 1 – Solid Performances and Top-Level Pace
From qualifying onward, both drivers showed strong potential, posting competitive lap times and maintaining a consistent pace throughout the day. Mattia Marchiante stood out for his determination and race intelligence, securing a solid top-20 finish in Race 1 after a series of decisive overtakes and impeccable race management.
Bati Yildirim, on his part, displayed great aggression and determination, but was unfortunately involved in contact that caused him to lose positions. A post-race penalty further affected his result, despite a performance that confirmed the growth path he began at the start of the season.
Race 2 – A True Test in Heavy Rain
The second race of the weekend brought extreme conditions and a true challenge for all drivers. Torrential, unrelenting rain turned Mugello into a treacherous circuit, with several chaotic episodes, Safety Car interventions, a red flag, and plenty of drama.
For Mattia and Bati, it was their first-ever race in such extreme wet-weather conditions—a real proving ground faced with impressive grit and maturity. Both showed a quick and confident ability to adapt, finishing the race with positive feelings and significant personal growth.
The results speak for themselves: Bati Yildirim finished P5 in the Rookie class, followed by Mattia Marchiante in P7, marking clear progress and greater technical awareness even under difficult circumstances.
Looking Ahead: Monza Awaits!
There’s no time to rest—this weekend, Omnia Racing will be back on track for a new chapter in the season, this time at the legendary Monza circuit for the Porsche Sprint Challenge Suisse.
Flying the team’s colors will be Christian Caramuscia and Ermanno Quintieri, ready to represent Omnia Racing with their trademark passion and determination.
After an intense weekend at Mugello filled with lessons, growth, and adrenaline, the team looks ahead to the next challenge with enthusiasm.
