The double-header second and third round of the 2021 F3 Asian Championship, held at the Yas Marina circuit, Abu Dhabi saw great success for Mumbai Falcons. Jehan Daruvala took two wins and a second place in Round 2 and capped off the third round with a win and a second place finish. While his teammate Kush Maini had a difficult Round 2, the Indian driver finally bagged points finishes for Round 3.
All this leaves Jehan Daruvala 2nd In the drivers’ standings, just 10 points behind Pierre-Louis Chovet. Kush Maini’s points finishes put him 13th overall. A decent haul of points propelled Mumbai Falcons to second in the teams’ standings, with only two more rounds to go.
