A great achievement of Zuiderbuur Stoffel Vandoorne: the belgian rider took today the GP2 championship during the Formula 1 weekend in Russia.

The driver of the ART team (also the test driver of McLaren, knew this weekend the title in the GP2 championship to secure. This step he followed in the footsteps of names like Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg. The Belgian secured the win after a fourth place in the sprintrace today. Vandoorne was already five times on the highest step of the winner’s podium, including for his hometown audience in Spa.

The logical follow-up question is, of course, or Vandoorne now will be steaming to the Formula 1. Itself, he sees opportunities, but he indicates that the coming weeks are decisive for his future in Formula 1. Let’s hope that next year we what Belgian resistance for Max Verstappen, that would be nice.
