F3/GT at Oulton Park this Easter Weekend

MSVR organises F3/GT Season Opener in Cheshire


Oulton Park will be the place to be this Easter weekend as exotic supercars and future Formula One stars will be lining up for the first round of the 2010 Cooper Tires British Formula 3 series.

British F3 has proven to be one of the most successful stepping stones for young drivers on their way to Formula One as graduates from the series include Ayrton Senna and 2009 Formula One champion Jenson Button. The Cheshire circuit saw Australian Daniel Ricciardo score his first two wins in the series on his way to the 2009 title. A number of young drivers will be eager to follow in the young Australians footsteps.

The Avon Tyres British GT championship will again be joining F3 at Oulton Park. Some of the most evocative marques in motorsport will be competing over the weekend. Expect to see Ferraris, Porsches, Dodge Vipers plus the new for 2010 Audi R8!

The weekend will also stage the inaugural rounds of the Trofeo Abarth 500 GB Championship, which has joined MSVR's potfolio for 2010. Expect to see some door to door action from these exciting Italian machines.

Other support race content includes the Dunlop MSA Formula Ford Championship of Great Britain, the Volkswagen Racing Cup and the Ginetta Challenge.
