John Marco won the Jeddah E2 race from fourth on the grid to claim a first IMS victory for McLaren.

Erion advanced from P3 to complete a McLaren one-two and earn a first IMS podium. Veerthebot climbed from P10 to third for Ferrari.

Two McLaren milestones on one podium

John Marco gained three positions and Erion one. Their combined progress moved both McLarens ahead of the cars that had occupied the front row.

The championship remains led by gennaro1173 on 111 points, 11 ahead of Rickk116. Neither of the top two appears in the Jeddah podium.

A seven-place return completes the podium

Veerthebot's P10-to-P3 drive ended a 12-start podium absence, adding a recovery story behind McLaren's double breakthrough.

Jeddah's E2 race therefore changes the active cast without changing first place in the standings: two McLaren milestones lead the result, while the Alpine title fight continues 11 points apart.
