Olivia Racing’s Karol Pasiewicz, from Lodz, Poland, currently holds a commanding 51-point advantage in the quest for a scholarship valued at $251,516 to graduate onto the next step of the USF Pro Championships ladder, USF2000, in 2027.

VRD Racing this morning concluded the USF Pro Patriot 250 Grand Prix of Mid-Ohio in style as Canadian Edward Kennedy led Dutch teammate Dean Hoogendoorn to a magnificent sweep of the top two steps of the USF Juniors Presented by Continental Tire podium.

VRD Racing’s Edward Kennedy became the youngest driver to win a USF Juniors Presented by Continental Tire race this afternoon in the first of two races that comprise the USF Pro Patriot 250 Grand Prix of Mid-Ohio.

Open-wheel racing aficionados will be in their element this Fourth of July weekend at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Pasiewicz led from start to finish in a thrilling, all-green 20-lap race on the technical and fast 2.439-mile natural terrain road course. But he was made to work hard in the closing stages by top Canadian Olivier Mrak, from Ottawa, Que., who wrapped up his own sweep of second-place finishes and grabbed an extra bonus point for fastest lap into the bargain.
