Alezoo converted pole into a first IMS victory for Ferrari in the Las Vegas E3 race, reaching P1 on start number seven.

Croissantdan rose from P15 to second for Kick Sauber, while L3on Tyl3r2500 gained three places to finish third for VCARB.

Three teams before the seventh start

Alezoo's first six starts moved through Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari, with appearances in E3 and D2. One podium and 66 points preceded Las Vegas; pole and victory raised both the ceiling and the total.

All seven starts belonged to Season 5, but they had already involved Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari across E3 and D2. The Las Vegas flag fixed the totals at one win, two podiums, one pole and 98 points.

Ferrari makes the latest move definitive

The route was short in time and busy in team colours. Ferrari made the third chapter definitive by giving Alezoo the first result that could stand above every earlier change.

The route was not long in seasons, only busy in scenery. Las Vegas gave Alezoo something the earlier changes could not: a result strong enough to make the latest red chapter the one that mattered.
