RXR and ACCIONA | SAINZ XE Team secure NEOM Island X Prix II Final spots
An aggressive start from RXR’s Mikaela Åhlin-Kottulinsky put her in front of Sanz, as Price took the alternate line to the right of her competitors.
As the teams merged, No.99 GMC Hummer EV slotted behind RXR in first and ACCIONA | SAINZ XE in second.
Sanz went wide a few corners later, opening the window for Price to charge up the inside, making contact as she went.
The two came together once again, sending Price off track and the subsequent damage to her ODYSSEY 21 put No.99 GMC Hummer EV out of the race and out of contention for a second podium in this double-header.
Johan Kristoffersson took over a comfortable lead from Åhlin-Kottulinsky and got the RXR car over the line in first, with Carlos Sainz Snr. bringing his ODYSSEY 21 home in second meaning both teams head to the Final.
