Markas Šilkūnas, a debutant in the Formula 4 racing season and a member of the Swiss 'Jenzer Motorsport' team, faced particular difficulties on a track known for its challenging overtaking conditions. In the initial practice session, he recorded an 18th place result, ranking 8th among the season's newcomers. As he continued to improve, he achieved a commendable 7th place in the final practice session, indicating progress in his performance throughout the weekend.

During the qualification round, Šilkūnas finished 25th, narrowly missing a higher position, as he was only 0.001 seconds behind his teammate Georgiy Zasov. The best time was clocked by Belgian driver Dries van Langendonck, who is leading the season. The competition was particularly affected by strong winds, which led to the cancellation of Saturday's races not only for Formula 4 but also for other racing series at the karting track. As a result, the weekend was marred by interruptions, with the karting races resuming only on Sunday when wind conditions improved.

Despite the setbacks, Šilkūnas' performance demonstrated resilience and potential for growth as he learns to navigate the complexities of Formula 4 racing. His experience in adjusting to challenging conditions will be crucial for his development in upcoming races as he aims to improve and secure better positions on the track.
