A P8-to-P1 charge decides the race, but second place is enough to put the Kick Sauber driver five points clear in the standings.

NesbiLeGrand won the Texas E3 race from eighth on the grid, gaining seven positions to put Ferrari first at the flag.

Elias_endale advanced from P3 to P2 for Kick Sauber, with jazzy-draught9 recovering from P7 to complete the podium for Aston Martin.

The biggest recovery wins the race

Nesbi's seven-place charge was the defining movement at the front. Elias gained one and jazzy gained four, so every podium position came with forward progress.

The championship still belongs to Elias_endale on 46 points. Alezoo is the nearest listed rival on 41, setting the post-Texas gap at five.

Race order and title order diverge

Texas therefore produces two legitimate E3 headlines. Ferrari owns the recovery victory; Kick Sauber owns the driver at the top of the cumulative table.

That distinction gives the next round substance: Nesbi has demonstrated winning pace from P8, while Elias leaves with the only number that survives the weekend unchanged by interpretation—first place on 46.
