Australia's Fastest WANTED: AUSTRALIA’S FASTEST 2015 INFORMATION GUIDE WELCOME TO FORMULA 3 ABOUT AUSTRALIAN FORMULA 3 The Formula 3 Australian Drivers Championship is Australia’s key ‘wings and slicks’ racing championship, melding the international reputation of Formula Three with the more than 50-year history of the Australian Drivers Championship and CAMS Gold Star award. The result is a fiercely competitive, affordable championship that boasts current technology and the quickest racing cars in the country. Drivers from more than ten nations including some of Australia’s finest young talent, have passed through Australian Formula 3 not only showcasing its ability to provide young drivers with the best proving ground for their talents, but enhancing the competition as well. The Formula 3 Australian Drivers Championship is managed by Formula 3 Management Pty Ltd, a company formed with the sole purpose of promoting and growing ‘Wings and Slicks’ racing in Australia. The three key factors that make up the mission statement of Formula 3 Management are: ▶︎Provide the most cost-effective international specification open-wheel championship in Australia. ▶︎Offer the most competitive racing possible. ▶︎Offer the best ‘training base’ for drivers seeking to progress their career either in Australia or abroad, OR a stable platform for drivers to simply enjoy driving the best racing cars in Australia. IT’S TIME It has never been a better time to enter the Formula 3 Australian Drivers Championship. Television coverage expands in 2015, with every round of the championship broadcast on SBS Speedweek as part of the Shannons Nationals, with 2014 rounds reaching an average Audience of 345,000 people nationally (5 capital cities + regional audiences, supplied by Nielson TV ratings data). In addition, costs have been reduced, with new engine options complementing the existing M271 Mercedes-Benz Australian Control Engine. These will reduce costs while maintaining the existing parity that exists in the category. In addition, travel kilometres have been reduced. In short, there is no better time to join Australia’s premier motor racing category. But don’t ask us: Call our teams, and ask them. 2015 AUSTRALIAN FORMULA 3 INFORMATION GUIDE 1 THE EXPOSURE ALL 7 ROUNDS IN 2015 TELEVISED WITH THE ▶︎SHANNONS NATIONALS FREE-TO-AIR - SPEEDWEEK ON SBS FOXTEL - SHANNONS NATIONALS ON FOX SPORTS ON DEMAND - SPEEDWEEK.COM.AU 345,000 VIEWERS PER ROUND LIVE STREAMING OF 2 RACES PER ROUND 30,000 REACHED PER ROUND VIA SOCIAL MEDIA 20,000 REACHED VIA FORMULA3.COM.AU PRINT AND RADIO COVERAGE INCLUDING MOTORSPORT AND NON-MOTORSPORT OUTLETS THE CLASSES, THE COSTS ▶︎CHAMPIONSHIP CLASS FOR THE CAMS GOLD STAR 7 ROUNDS - 150-200K BUDGET - MORE INFO ON PAGE 4 ▶︎NATIONAL CLASS 7 ROUNDS - 140-160K BUDGET - MORE INFO ON PAGE 5 ▶︎KUMHO CUP CLASS 4 ROUNDS - 45-60K BUDGET - MORE INFO ON PAGE 6 2015 AUSTRALIAN FORMULA 3 INFORMATION GUIDE 2 THE CALENDAR FORMULA 3 AND THE SHANNONS NATIONALS In 2015, the Formula 3 Australian Drivers Championship is partnering exclusively with the Shannons Nationals, with a seven round program in four states: Round 1 - March 27-29 - Sandown Raceway, Melbourne, Victoria (K) Round 2 - May 22-24 - Phillip Island, Victoria Round 3 - June 12-14 - Winton Motor Raceway, Victoria Round 4 - July 3-5 - Sydney Motorsport Mark, New South Wales (K) Round 5 - August 7-9 - Queensland Raceway, Ipswich, Queensland (K) Round 6 - September 18-20 - Phillip Island, Victoria Round 7 - October 16-19 - Wakefield Park, Goulburn, New South Wales (K)* (K) Kumho Cup Round * Special Event Round 1-6 will feature two 20-minute races, and one 30-minute feature race.

    2020 MOTORSPORT AUSTRALIA MANUAL TITLES Australian Grand Prix motorsport.org.au Modified Article Date of Application Date of Publication 1. THE AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX The title ‘Grand Prix’ has associations extending back to the very earliest days of competition and the French form of the words stems from their first use in association with the French Grand Prix. Although at least one earlier event was given the name “Australian Grand Prix”, the premier Australian race was first recognised in 1928, and has been conducted since then each year except 1936 and during World War II. Since 1949 it has been a scratch race, but in the years 1934, 1935, 1937, 1939, 1947 and 1948, the winner was not the fastest, but won on handicap. Since 1985, the Grand Prix has been a round of the FIA Formula 1™ World Championship. THE LEX DAVISON TROPHY FOR THE AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX This trophy, designed and made in Britain by Mr Rex Hays to the order of CAMS, incorporates a silver model of the Austin Seven driven to victory in the first Australian Grand Prix in 1928. The name of the trophy commemorates the late “Lex” Davison, a four-time winner of the Australian Grand Prix (1954, 1957, 1958 and 1961). 2.
