Season report

Round 1: Australia

The season began at Albert Park Circuit with a Campos Racing one-two in qualifying; Théophile Naël on pole position, Ugo Ugochukwu second and Trident's Freddie Slater third. Bruno del Pino started the reverse-grid sprint race from pole position by virtue of having qualified twelfth. Del Pino and second-placed Enzo Deligny held their positions at the start, whilst Noah Strømsted lost third place to Brando Badoer. On lap eight of twenty, Prema Racing teammates James Wharton and Louis Sharp collided heavily whilst battling for seventh place. The race was red-flagged and not resumed due to the damage to the barriers. The result was taken from the end of lap seven and points were only awarded to the top five finishers. Del Pino claimed his first Formula 3 victory and Deligny and Badoer achieved their first podiums in the series. Wharton and Sharp were withdrawn from the following day's feature race on medical grounds.[50]

Pole-sitter Naël maintained the lead at the start of the feature race whilst Ugochukwu lost second place to Slater. Ugochukwu soon recovered the position and then passed Naël for first place on lap four. Nicola Lacorte briefly entered the podium positions after overtaking Slater, but soon dropped back and was then involved in a collision with Strømsted, for which Strømsted received a penalty. A crash by Michael Shin on lap twenty brought out the safety car, which stayed out until the end of the race. Further penalties were issued in the closing laps, with Naël and Lacorte both receiving penalties for false starts. Ugochukwu took his first Formula 3 victory and was joined on the podium by Slater and Taito Kato, who had originally crossed the finish line in fifth but was promoted by the penalties for Naël and Strømsted. Ugochukwu's win placed him in the lead of the championship by seven points ahead of second-placed Del Pino.

Scoring system

Points are awarded to the top ten classified finishers in both races.[b] The pole-sitter in the feature race also receives two points, and one point is given to the driver who set the fastest lap in both the feature and sprint races, provided that driver finished inside the top ten. If the driver who set the fastest lap is classified outside the top ten, the point is given to the driver who set the fastest lap of those inside the top ten. No extra points are awarded to the pole-sitter in the sprint race as the grid for it is set by reversing the top twelve qualifiers.

Notes

  1. ^ Louis Sharp set the fastest lap and would have scored the point for it, but later received a ten-second time penalty for causing a collision. This dropped him out of the top ten, making him ineligible to score the point. James Wharton would have scored the point for setting the fastest lap among those finishing in the top ten, but as less than 50% of the scheduled race distance was completed, he was not awarded the point for it.
  2. ^ In the event of a race ending prematurely, the number of points-paying positions may be reduced, depending on how much of the race has been completed.
  3. ^ a b c d As more than 25% but less than 50% of the scheduled race distance was completed, reduced points were awarded on a 5–4–3–2–1 basis to the top five finishers. Additionally, as less than 50% of the scheduled race distance was completed, no points were awarded for the fastest lap of the race.
