The Formula 2 World Championship leader, Brazilian Felipe Drugovich is in the top six on the starting grid for both races of the round. The Dutch MP Motorsport team driver will start sixth on Saturday (11), in the Sprint Race, the shortest race of each round, because of the inversion of the top 10.
