Imola: JK Tyre supported driver Kush Maini stamped his authority on the Italian f4 Championship post a wet weekend on the Imola circuit, toping the Rookie Championship Leaderboard, with a cumulative points tally of 130 points. The lead a whopping 13 points ahead of the next person on the board, his teammate, Lorenzo Colombo at 117 points.

With two rookie podium finishes in his first and second race at Imola over the weekend and three rookie podium finishes in Adria the previous weekend, Kush has definitely proved to be a seasoned campaigner.Kush's pace and determination to shine has been evident over the last three rounds, with strong finishes through free practice sessions, qualifying and podium finishes on all his weekends. His consistency on the track has been un-defeatable, making him the very clear leader on the board amongst the 18 rookies that are participating across Europe.

Commenting on his achievements on his debut, Kush is measured in his excitement, sharing, "While it is great to be on top of the Rookie Leader board currently, it is too early to celebrate. We have more than half the season to race and while I would like to be on the top at the end, I know that I would have to keep my performances consistent and continue to focus my energy on driving good races. I am glad to be off for a while, would allow me some time to analyse the past month and look for areas of improvement."

Kush will now race on the 17th July 2016 in Mugello.
