Despite having few weapons, Fernando He took advantage of his cunning to stick to the Mexican, prepare for the overtake and execute it before turn 4, the last time he needed to achieve it. And he achieved it, having to defend his position until the goal, which he entered with only 53 thousandths of the margin with ‘Czech’ parallel.
