Jehan’s second-place in Imola was his third podium from as many rounds this season and 10th overall in Formula 2. It also lifted him to third in the overall drivers’ standings.
“Firstly, I got off the line better than the guys at the front but because I had to avoid Logan

I lost some momentum and couldn’t get Marcus. But after that the race wasn’t easy.
“I was trying to put him under a lot of pressure early on in the race but it was really hard to follow, especially in the middle sector,” Jehan said after the race.”I had DRS but I was never quite close enough to mount an attack. I tried to cool down and give it a go at the end but again when I got closer I really struggled to follow.
