Mick Schumacher, the 16-year-old son of seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Michael, won his third-ever car race today.

Schumacher beat Joseph Mawson, who closed right in on his lead in the closing stages, and Thomas Preining to the checkered flag, after the safety car peeled into the pits on the last lap.
