“To Win Monaco And Silverstone, They’re The Two I Wanted To Win” – Zak O’Sullivan

Following a successful 2023 campaign in Formula 3, Zak O’Sullivan not only finished in second place, but was promoted to Formula 2 to race for ART Grand Prix. The Williams Academy driver has hit the ground running, currently outscoring his teammate Victor Martins in the 2024 Championship.

Although it hasn’t been as successful as he had hoped O’Sullivan, has had some exceptional moments, none more than the feature race win at Monaco. Winning at the prestigious Monaco Grand Prix is something that most drivers look to achieve during their career. What would it mean for the Brit to pick up a win in Silverstone in his home race? With the preparation going into this race, how likely are we to see O’Sullivan on the top step of the podium?

We got to ask Zak O’Sullivan that very question, at the media day for this weekend’s Silverstone F2 race, here is what he had to say…

Zak O’Sullivan Talks Silverstone

I mean I think if I managed to win Monaco and the Silverstone race, they’re the two I wanted to win before the season, so let’s see. Of course the target every weekend is to win,  whether we achieve that or not I’m not sure, but it’s a track I really enjoy driving, the track I probably have the most experience on out of the whole calendar, and I’ve had some relatively strong weekends here in the past, so preparation-wise nothing really changes, I always approach every weekend the same way, focus on all the small details and hope to get pretty good results.
