Hungary F2 : Bird converts pole into feature race win

LiquiTarget driver Sam Bird converted pole position into a feature race victory at the Hungarian round of the 2011 FF2M season.

The Brit finished just under three seconds ahead of Giedo Van der Garde in the GRM junior car with STV’s Jerome D’Ambrosio a superb third after starting from twelth on the grid.

It was not a good race for the championship leading OLM Racing dup of Paul Di Resta and Esteban Gutierrez who finished sixth and seventh although both will fancy their chances starting from second and third in tomorrow’s reverse-grid sprint race.
