Monte Carlo 2026: A Historic Formula 2 Podium for Roman Biliński

The streets of Monte Carlo will remain one of the most memorable milestones in Roman Biliński's racing career. The Polish driver not only secured his first-ever Formula 2 podium but also made history as the first Polish driver to stand on a Formula 2 podium.

From the very beginning of the weekend, Biliński demonstrated impressive pace and confidence. Arriving in Monaco with strong memories of previous success at the iconic street circuit, he quickly adapted to the challenge of driving a Formula 2 car around the narrow and unforgiving streets of Monte Carlo for the first time. From the opening sessions, it was clear that he felt comfortable and competitive.

The highlight of the weekend came in the Sprint Race, where Biliński delivered a mature and composed performance to finish second. On a circuit where overtaking opportunities are extremely limited and races are often decided by track position, the Polish driver maximized every opportunity and extracted the maximum from both the car and the team's strategy.

The second-place finish not only secured his maiden Formula 2 podium but also marked a historic achievement for Polish motorsport.

After the race, Roman could not hide his emotions.

“To be the first Polish driver in Formula 2 history to stand on the podium is an incredible feeling. It's a moment I will remember for the rest of my life,” he said.

The achievement carries even greater significance given the location. Monte Carlo is one of the most prestigious venues in world motorsport, a place where legends of racing have celebrated some of the greatest victories of their careers. Standing on the podium in Monaco is considered one of the sport's highest honours, making this result even more special.

Roman completed the weekend in style by adding more points in the Feature Race, ensuring a double points finish across the Monaco weekend. The strong results underlined both his consistency and his ability to compete at the front of the Formula 2 field.

The Monaco weekend was more than just a historic result. It was a clear demonstration that Biliński possesses the speed, determination and racecraft required to challenge the best drivers in Formula 2. For the young Pole, it represented another important step on his journey towards the highest levels of international motorsport.
