The FIA World Motor Sports Council met at Goodwood on Friday 28th June and validated this choice. Thus, for the second time this season the FIA Formula 3 European Championship will take place in Italy in the context of the Superstars World meeting. 

 

“When we told the teams entered in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship about the cancellation of the Paul Ricard round, we also told them that we wanted a season consisting of ten events,” explains Gerhard Berger, President of the FIA Single-Seaters Commission. “So we had a look at what series corresponded to our organisation criteria, could supply us with the right amount of track time and high-quality TV coverage. We’re very satisfied to have reached agreement with the promoters of the Superstars World. It will be the final round of the championship and it’s always a big event in Italy.” 

 

The last round of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship will take place on the Hockenheim circuit the following weekend in the context of the DTM meeting on 19-20 October. This will give the teams additional time to prepare for the 2013 Macau Grand Prix.
