Rome, September 12 (Xinhua) -- In the Formula 2 (F2) Italian race that ended on the 12th, Chinese driver Zhou Guanyu started from third place and finally finished second, reaching the podium for the seventh time this season.

Zhou Guanyu seized the opportunity to rise to second place after the start, and although he was subsequently overtaken by New Zealand driver Lawson to return to third, he took advantage of the pit stop opportunity on the sixth lap to complete the counter-overtaking.

On lap 12, Zhou Guanyu made contact with other vehicles and rushed out of the track, but fortunately did not affect the next race. On lap 22, Zhou Guanyu took advantage of the safety car opportunity to return to second place.

Towards the end of the race, the collision once again triggered the safety car. In the end, the race ended under the guidance of safety cars, with Australian driver Piastri, who started from pole position, winning the championship and Zhou Guanyu finishing second.

In the two sprint matches played on the 11th, Zhou Guanyu won the second place in the first game and ranked eighth in the second game, and both games brought back points. In the drivers' standings, Zhou Guanyu is 15 points behind Piastri in second place.

The sixth race of F2 of the season will take place in Sochi, Russia, from 24 to 26 September. (End)
