Evans GP Sets Formula Trophy Malaysia Benchmark at Sepang Season Opener

Formula Trophy Malaysia opened its season at Sepang International Circuit with Evans GP setting the pace across the opening round. The team placed drivers on the podium in both races, including a full 1-2-3 in Race 2, while Juste Mulder and Hoai Nam “Ben” Anh Nguyen finished inside the top three…

Mulder took pole for Qualifying 1 ahead of Nguyen and Aaron Mehta, before Nguyen topped Qualifying 2 with Inigo Anton second and Mulder third.

Marco Manson took the opening race win, with Mulder second and Nguyen third to give Evans GP a two-podium finish. Taisei Murakami was the top Rookie in P7 overall.

Mulder responded in Race 2 with the victory, followed by Nguyen and David Cosma-Cristofor. The result gave Evans GP a complete podium sweep, while Mehta finished fourth overall as the leading Rookie.

With Mulder and Nguyen providing consistent front-running pace and Manson taking the opening victory, Round 1 established Evans GP as the early benchmark. The Rookie battle also remains open after two different winners at Sepang.
