The midlands racer displayed some blistering one-lap speed over the latest F3 weekend.
Offaly's Alex Dunne will have left the latest round of the Formula Three World Championship wondering what might have been.
The McLaren Junior driver qualified his MP Motorsport car in a season's best second place for Sunday's feature race.
However the Clonbullogue teenager couldn't convert his strong starting position on Sunday after dropping from fifth to 11th.
He eventually recovered to score a single point in tenth spot.
Dunne will now aim to finish mixed rookie season on a high when the championship arrives at Monza for the last F3 races of 2024.
