With two exciting rounds of the 2021 Formula DRIFT PRO season successfully under out belts, we look ahead to Round Three: The Gauntlet at Old Bridge Township Raceway in Englishtown, NJ. Taking place on June 18-19, it allows Formula DRIFT to finally make its mark at the brand-new, purpose-built drift arena, which replaces the NHRA drag strip.

10.Fredric Aasbo Back on Podium
Just two weeks ago I included Fredric Aasbo in my Top 10 Things about him “falling short” in Atlanta. He confidently recovered at Orlando this past weekend by getting revenge on Jeff Jones and running his way to second place on the night. Fredric Aasbo has already won twice at this venue in the past and he showed his superior tandem skills again in Orlando. However, he was unable to knock out Chelsea DeNofa in the finals. He now finds himself sixth in the Championship but only 37 points behind Odi Bakchis.
After a Formula Drift event win in Atlanta and a 4th place finish last weekend at Orlando Speed World, Aurimas “Odi” Bakchis continues to hold the lead in championship points. Bakchis also debuted as team principal in the Formula Drift ProSpec class last weekend, serving as manager and advisor for the Bakchis Motorsports Feal Suspension S14 at the first ProSpec event of the 2021 season.
