There are a wide number of different championships running at Formula 3 level around the world, headed by the FIA Formula 3 Championship that supports Formula 1. Below this, there are official Regional F3 championships covering Europe, America, Asia and Japan – as well as the independent Formula Renault Eurocup and W Series. Others, such as Euroformula and Super Formula Lights, remain faithful to the classic F3 concept.
FIA F3 drivers suffered from excessive tyre wear in today’s sprint race at the Hungaroring, and tyre supplier Pirelli has responded by asking to shorten the feature race.
