John finished 5th in race 1 at New Jersey. He passed his way up to fourth, made a mistake under braking to give P4 back to his teammate, and came home 5th. The car is not what it needs to be according to the team, and he and his teammate are about 1 second off Summerton and Simona. They will come back tomorrow. John starts P6 after struggling in qualifying.

Quote from John:
“We moved up a few positions so that was good for the points today, but we still don’t have the pace of the leaders (Summerton and De Silvestro). We’ll see what we can do tonight and aim for the podium tomorrow.”
