2021 Porto Corsa Grand Prix

2021 Porto Corsa Grand Prix is race number 4 of the 2021 World Grand Prix. This race was supposed to be the last race Lightning McQueen will be racing as a backup for Cruz Ramirez, but McQueen made a major announcement at the end of the race. This race was very historic and considered the best Porto Corsa Grand Prix ever, and you won't believe who won!

Spencer Carlinton Jr started on the pole and was in the lead, with Lightning McQueen over taking Akinori Sato for 2nd. Italy's racer Francesco Bernoulli started in the lower positions, but slowly climbed up but then, Miguel Camino had some bad luck and he spun out took out Danny Riccartdo, Hank Melvin, Max Van Der Meer, Carteri Bottas, and Sean Rod.

Francesco dodged the entire thing barely, and finally reached the high positions.

Spencer Carlinton Jr started having a tough time holding the lead since McQueen was starting to speed up a little, Spencer tried to keep the lead but unfortunately his engine had not been checked before the race and it failed on him which allowed Lightning to take the lead.

Then Francesco came up on McQueen, then the two started battling for the lead like they did all of those years ago. it looked like it was going to be a tie but Francesco accelerated to WIN! It was a massive celebration in Porto Corsa and Francesco and some of his friends took a ride on a boat who happened to be Francesco's friend Alberto to celebrate Francesco winning.

Lightning made a huge announcement 4 hours after the race that he will race the whole season and Cruz will not come back to the WGP to have complete focus on the Piston Cup and also because of Lightning's chance to win championship.

### Lightning Major Announcement (4 hours after race)

Lightning: So I have come to make an announcement. For Cruz fans this will be bad news I know but I must tell you, Cruz Ramirez has decided to not participate in any more races this WGP season not only because of her crash in Moscow, but because the pressure of racing in two championship's at once is too much for her and she wanted to focus on the Piston Cup and did not want to risk any crashes that could ruin her chances in both WGP and Piston Cup, so I hope you can all understand. Cruz herself has told me to race in all WGP races since I have done well so I will be. That is everything I have to say thank you.
