Dakar Rally News: Unveiling the All-New 2025 Formula 3 Car
“I am very pleased to unveil our new F3 car, which will race for the next three seasons,” said Michel. “Just like the current F2 car, together with the FIA, we have designed a machine that is challenging, safe, and the perfect tool to prepare young drivers who aspire to race in F1 in the future.”
In a major announcement for the world of motorsports, Formula 3 CEO Bruno Michel has unveiled the highly anticipated 2025 Formula 3 car, which will race for the next three seasons. This new machine, designed in collaboration with the FIA, is set to provide an exciting and challenging experience for young drivers aspiring to compete in Formula 1.
The 2025 Formula 3 car has been engineered to deliver thrilling racing with numerous overtaking opportunities. Additionally, the team has focused on enhancing the car’s driveability and comfort, ensuring it caters to a diverse range of drivers and meets the FIA’s requirements regarding steering effort.
“The 2025 F3 car has been designed to provide exciting racing, with a lot of overtaking opportunities,” Michel explained. “We have also worked to ensure this new car fits all types of drivers, taking into account the FIA’s requirements regarding the steering effort. With this in mind, we have enhanced our car’s driveability and comfort to further ensure the new generation car is more inclusive.”
Sustainability has been a key priority in the development of the 2025 Formula 3 car. Thanks to the partnership with energy giant Aramco, the car will run on advanced, 100% sustainable fuel, meeting the FIA’s stringent standards as early as 2025. Furthermore, several parts of the car will incorporate recycled carbon, further reducing the sport’s environmental impact.
“I’m also very proud of reaching another important milestone in terms of sustainability: thanks to our partner Aramco, the F3 car will run on advanced fuel, meeting the FIA 100% sustainable fuel standard as early as 2025, and several parts of the F3 2025 will use recycled carbon,” Michel added.
Cost-control has remained a crucial consideration in the design process, as the team has worked to ensure the new car can be managed with just 11 operational personnel, as per the Sporting Regulations.
“As always, controlling costs has remained a hot topic when designing the F3 2025, so we have made sure to keep them as low as possible,” Michel said. “We have also ensured that this new car can be managed with 11 operational people, as per the Sporting Regulations.”
The Formula 3 CEO expressed his gratitude to the series’ partners, including Aramco, Pirelli, Dallara, and Mecachrome, whose expertise and knowledge have been instrumental in the development of the 2025 Formula 3 car, which promises to be the best tool for young drivers to hone their skills on the path to the pinnacle of motorsport.
