Report Race 2
There was a case of collective strange behaviour breaking out at Carlin just before the start of what was to be Alvaro Parente's final F3 run for the team (he is committed to A1GP with the Portuguese team from now on and the dates clash). In celebration of his championship, and in farewell, most of the team had spray-dyed their hair in the Portuguese colours of ......

Di Resta belatedly excluded from the race
Following the scrutineering of his car, Paul di Resta (Manor Motorsport, Dallara-Mercedes), who finished runner-up in round 18, was belatedly excluded from the race. While a minimum of 1.5 litres pf petrol has to be in the tank of a car at the end of a race to meet the regulations, there were only 0.98 litres in the tank of ......

Report Race 1
After a great deal of confusion, caused by the officials initially trying to line the grid up on a two-by-two linear formation, as opposed to the correct staggered grid line up, the race finally got underway. Interestingly, perhaps, pole sitter Steven Kane (Promatecme F3) promptly messed up his start when he crept prior to the lights coming on. Realising his ......

Report Qualifying 2
Possibly because most of the fast times were set in the first part of the morning session, there was a mass rush for the pit lane exit at the start of the qualifying session for Round 20. This time Ronayne O'Mahony (Fortec Motorsport) was first out of the pits, and onto the track, but this didn't make him especially fast. Instead, Danilo Dirani (P1 Motorsport) was the first man to .....

Report Qualifying 1
In a departure from normal procedure, instead of Ryan Lewis (T-Sport) being the first runner on the track, Stephen Jelley (Menu Motorsport) was the first man out, the Englishman leaving the pit apron a good twenty seconds ahead of anyone else. As a result, at the end of the first handful of flying laps, Jelley was fastest, ahead of .....

Report Race 2
In some ways the story of this race can pretty much be told in a full description of what happened on the very first lap. With Bruno Senna and Daniel Clarke occupying the front row of the grid for Double R Racing, it did look as if Senna might be about to claim his first victory. However, Alvaro Parente (Carlin Motorsport) had other ideas. The series leader might ......

Report Race 1
There's always at least one very odd race each season, and it's possible that Round 17 was it. There are a number of drivers who look likely winners, but most people would not necessarily have included James Walker (Fortec Motorsport) among them. However, that was exactly what happened this morning at the Nürburgring. With Alvaro ......

It's 8am at the Nurburgring, and you have to wonder who decided this was a sensible time to hold a qualifying session. At least we'd find out who the morning people were… And it wouldn't necessarily be the people you would expect. With the last of the early morning mist burning away, the field came out to play. We would bet that .......

As usual Ryan Lewis (T-Sport) was the first one out onto the track. It never does him any good, but they repeatedly do it anyway… While a number of the competitors opted to sit in the pit lane for the opening minutes, Lewis went charging round the Eifel Mountains looking for that elusive pole position. Someone else who wasn't hanging .......
