🏁 Red Archer Opens 2026 Account with Strong Bahrain Result

Round 3 - Bahrain – 2026 Superleague Season - 09 April 2026

 

After a challenging start to the 2026 season, Red Archer has finally opened its points tally with a strong and encouraging performance at the Bahrain Grand Prix.

The opening rounds in Melbourne and Suzuka proved difficult for the team, with both races yielding no points despite solid efforts behind the scenes. However, the trip to Sakhir marked a turning point — particularly for Geoffrey Fournier, who delivered a composed and intelligent weekend to put Red Archer on the board.

🚀 Breakthrough Performance in Sakhir

Running a new engine package, Geoffrey approached the Bahrain weekend with a different mindset, opting for an alternative car setup that allowed him to push closer to the limits with greater confidence.

The result was immediate.

A superb qualifying lap secured P5 on the grid, placing him right in the mix with the front-running pack. From there, Geoffrey executed a smart and controlled race, focusing on consistency and tire management while making full use of the car’s grip advantage.

Staying within the leading group throughout the race, he brought the car home in P7, scoring the first points of the season for both himself and Red Archer — a result that reflects the progress made in recent weeks.

🔧 Building Momentum

While Geoffrey celebrated a breakthrough result, Danny van der Niet continues to work hard on unlocking performance. The Dutch driver has faced a more difficult start to the season, still searching for the right balance and feeling with the car.

Despite missing out on points so far, Danny remains confident. With ongoing work alongside the team and continued adaptation to the package, he believes it’s only a matter of time before results begin to follow.

🔜 Eyes on Jeddah

With points finally on the board and clear signs of improvement, Red Archer heads to the next round in Jeddah with renewed confidence. The progress shown in Bahrain offers a solid foundation — and the team will be aiming to build on that momentum as the season begins to take shape.

Following the departures of Chris Shepherd and Rait Kilk, Red Archer welcomes two new race drivers to the cockpit.

 

French driver Geoffrey Fournier returns to the team after previously racing for Red Archer in 2017, marking a long-awaited reunion between driver and team. Fournier brings valuable experience and familiarity with the organization as he begins a new chapter in the red garage.

 

Joining him will be Dutch driver Danny van der Niet, who steps into the second race seat for the upcoming campaign. The team believes the pairing combines speed, experience, and determination—key ingredients as Red Archer aims to climb back up the grid.

 

Completing the lineup is Estonian driver Kaspar Koorits, who joins the team as test driver for the season. Koorits will support the development program throughout the year, helping refine the car and assist the race drivers during what promises to be an intense championship battle.

 

After an extensive pre-season preparation period, the mood inside the team is optimistic. The Rethymno-based squad has invested heavily in its technical structure, equipping itself with the latest development tools and a strengthened technical staff to maximize performance throughout the season.

With a new lineup, fresh energy, and a clear goal of returning to stronger results, Red Archer heads into the 2026 season confident and ready to fight.

The lights will soon go out on a new championship — and Red Archer intends to be ready when they do.
