Oleksandr Bondarev and Yaroslav Veselago – how Ukrainians performed in the off -season

On February 28, the final races of the Formula-4 Middle East and FRMEC Championships took place, where Ukraine was represented by Alexander Bondarev and Yaroslav Veselago.

The completion of the stage also allows you to summarize the whole championship.

It is worth noting that for both Ukrainian pilots, this championship was not the main one in the season. He served as preparation for participation in European series.

Formula-4

Oleksandr Bondaev is the first Ukrainian who has received support for the Formula -1 team development program, in his case, Williams Reising. For the Ukrainian, it is the first full-fledged open wheel championship, before that he participated in only two final stages of the race in the Italian formula-4 for the Prama team, which Alexander also represents in the formula-4 Middle East.

The last race did not happen as well as it could. Starting the 13th, Alexander Bondarev collided with the opponent and began to lose the pace, which was why he was forced to come to boxing. This allowed him to restore speed, but he had no chance to fight for points. As a result, the Ukrainian finished outside the TOP-20.

However, the championship was generally much more successful for Bondarev than the final race.

The glasses were able to get in the first stage on the Yas-Maryn highway, and the next racing weekend Alexander rose to the podium as the best among beginners.

If you look at the standings, you can see the gradual progress of the Ukrainian up to the final stage in Qatar.

The only thing to regret is the lack of catwalks in the main standings. The opportunities were: in the second races of the second and third stages, the Ukrainian started from the forefront thanks to a reversible grate.

Bondarev’s pace and speed were certainly, but the safety machines violated his plans. It is important that he has gained invaluable experience of fighting in the leading group, which he will definitely need it in the Italian formula-4.

Alexander, which he demonstrated in the championship, can be confidently called the start and the ability to defend the position.

In almost every race, he played positions after the start and restart, even when he was on the front rows of the starting field.

His moments of defense on the track will undoubtedly be in the best moments of the season.

The final result: 12th place in the overall standings and 3rd among beginners.

After completing the championship, Alexander Bondarev thanked his fans on social networks:

Unforgettable weekends in Qatar, when all 3 races were compromised. I learned a lot in this championship, and it was a very good preparation for Italian F4 in a few months. Before that we still have a lot of work, but we hope to continue to improve to spend the best European season.

The first championship race in Italy will be held from May 2 to May 4 at Mizano. Alexander will continue to stand for Prama.

FRMEC

Yaroslav Vesorovo finished the 23rd in the final race-this is his worst result of the season. He spent the best race in the first race of the third stage in Dubai, where he took 14th place, stopping for two positions from the glass zone.

According to the results of the FRMEC-2025 season, the Ukrainian took 26th place among 35 pilots.

It should be emphasized that Freca (European Regional Formula) and FRMEC (regional Middle East Championship) is an intermediate level between the formula-4 and the formula-3 formula, which teams use to prepare their pilots. The competition here is much higher, and the rivals are stronger. For example, the Champions of the Formula-4 Italy and France-Freddie Slaiter and Evan Giltet-fought here for the title.

Unlike Bondarev, it was not a debut season for FRMEC for Vesolavo. Last year, he also participated in this championship, but as part of another team.

Yaroslav is a real exception in the world of vehicles. He got into the formula not through karting, as it happens almost always, but from a drift. This means that most of his life he did not compete in the ring race before sitting in a single car. Therefore, its progress is especially noticeable.

Last year, he completed the championship in 33rd place, and this season was regularly in a group of pilots who fought for the top 15, most often finishing 17th.

Yaroslav Veserog also thanked his fans for their support and promised to share the interesting news soon:

The FRMEC 2025 Championship is completed, so it’s time to summarize.

Undoubtedly, the third stage in Dubai was the best moment of my season. In the second race, I arrived in the 16th and generally spent the weekend well.
I can not but mention yesterday’s race in Qatar, where I have almost completed the early departure. The result was obtained in a difficult struggle, but still deserved to P17.
With every step, my confidence is only increasing. This is a cool feeling and with him I only want more.
There are a lot of work, especially in the speed of decision making, but with the existing progress – I do not plan to stop.

I am grateful to my team, my sponsors and my race family.
And, of course, special thanks to you, my subscribers.
I thank all of 20,000 of you today!

It’s time for a short pause, but believe me, it will be exciting. Soon you will find out why

The first stage of his main championship for Vesolab will be held from May 3 to May 4 on the highway. Yaroslav will be represented, as in the off -season colors of the Senterta Raising team.
