2024 FIA Formula 3 Championship
The 2024 FIA Formula 3 Championship was a motor racing championship for Formula 3 cars sanctioned by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). The championship was the fifteenth season of Formula 3 racing and the sixth season run under the FIA Formula 3 Championship moniker. It was an open-wheel racing category serving as the third tier of formula racing in the FIA Global Pathway. The category was run in support of selected rounds of the 2024 FIA Formula One World Championship. As the championship was a spec series, all teams and drivers competing in the championship ran the same car, the Dallara F3 2019.[1]
Prema Racing entered the championship as the reigning Teams' Champions, having secured their title at the final race of the 2023 season in Monza. They also secured the Teams' Championship title in 2024.
2024 was the final year using the Dallara F3 2019 chassis, which debuted in the inaugural 2019 season. Starting in 2025, a new chassis was introduced.[2]
Entries
The following teams and drivers were competing in the 2024 FIA Formula 3 Championship.[3] As the championship was a spec series, all teams competed with an identical Dallara F3 2019 chassis with a 3.4 L (207 cu in) naturally-aspirated V6 engine developed by Mecachrome.[4][5][6] All teams competed with tyres supplied by Pirelli.

Calendar changes
- The FIA Formula 3 Championship returned to Imola after the round in 2023 was cancelled as a result of mass flooding, which affected the region.[53]
Regulation changes
Technical regulations
- FIA Formula 3 ran with 55% sustainable fuel supplied by Aramco in 2023.[54] An increase in sustainability was implemented for 2024 to continue working towards the usage of 100% sustainable fuel by 2027.[55]
- After multiple races in 2023 had to be shortened because of concerns regarding the durability of Pirelli's medium tyre, a new specification of tyres was introduced.[56]
Sporting regulations
From this season, a new rule in order to try and prevent drivers benefitting from causing red flags during qualifying sessions was brought in for both the Formula 2 and FIA Formula 3 championships. Thus, if the stewards deem a driver to be the sole cause for the issuing of a red flag, the driver responsible will have their fastest lap time of that session deleted, as well as being prevented from taking any further part in that session.[57]
Season report
Round 1: Bahrain
Dino Beganovic set the fastest qualifying time for the opening round at Bahrain International Circuit to claim feature race pole position, followed by Luke Browning and Gabriele Minì. Laurens van Hoepen qualified twelfth and thus started the reverse-grid sprint race from first place. His ART Grand Prix teammate Nikola Tsolov took the lead at the first corner, and the two drivers continued competing for first position for much of the race. Arvid Lindblad, who started fourth, took advantage of the battle in front and overtook both drivers to claim the lead, and later the race win, on his FIA Formula 3 debut. He was joined on the podium by Van Hoepen, also on his debut race, and Leonardo Fornaroli, who had passed Tsolov in the closing laps.
Pole-sitter Beganovic encountered an issue off the start line in the feature race and was overtaken by the entire field before the first corner. The lead therefore passed to Browning, with Sami Meguetounif and Tim Tramnitz improving to the podium positions. Eighth-place starter Christian Mansell made overtakes at the start and had claimed second place by lap five. Mansell ran close behind Browning for most of the race but was unable to pass, and Browning took his first FIA Formula 3 victory, with Tramnitz completing the podium on his debut weekend. At the conclusion of the round, Browning led the Drivers' Championship by four points over Tramnitz.
Round 2: Australia
Leonardo Fornaroli qualified in first place at Albert Park Circuit ahead of Gabriele Minì and Dino Beganovic. Laurens van Hoepen started the sprint race from the front, and he and Martinius Stenshorne exchanged the lead multiple times in the early laps. Stenshorne ultimately held the position and then kept Arvid Lindblad behind, who had progressed to second place from fifth at the start. Stenshorne's victory was his first FIA Formula 3 podium finish.
Feature race pole-sitter Fornaroli led at the start and through the first restart after the safety car was deployed to recover Tommy Smith and Joseph Loake's collided cars. Beganovic overtook Fornaroli for the lead on lap 14. Minì had lost third place to Luke Browning but recovered the podium place on the penultimate lap. Beganovic's victory was his first in the category, and promoted him to fourth place in the Drivers' Championship. At the end of the round, Browning and Fornaroli were tied on points at the top of the championship – with Browning ahead by virtue of having won a race – both five points ahead of Minì.
Round 3: Italy (Imola)
Trident achieved a 1-2-3 classification in qualifying at Imola Circuit, with Santiago Ramos on feature race pole position ahead of teammates Leonardo Fornaroli and Sami Meguetounif. Kacper Sztuka started the sprint race from first place, but was overtaken by Noel León at the first corner. León held the position ahead of Oliver Goethe and Tim Tramnitz through four safety car restarts. A virtual safety car was deployed on the penultimate lap after sixth-place Browning collided with Sztuka and retired in the gravel. Racing resumed on the final lap, and a faster reaction from Goethe allowed him to gain the lead from León and cross the finish line first. Goethe was initially penalised for a safety car procedure infringement, but the penalty was later reversed and his position reinstated.[58]
Pole-sitter Ramos held the lead at the start of the feature race, but was overtaken by Fornaroli on lap three and would ultimately drop to eighth place by the end. Goethe, who started seventh, made his way up to second place and then gained the lead when Fornaroli slowed with a mechanical issue. This allowed Meguetounif into second place, who then caught and passed Goethe with four laps remaining. Meguetounif achieved his first win and podium in the category and was joined on the podium by Goethe and Fornaroli, who was able to recover positions and now led the Drivers' Championship by three points over Browning.
Round 4: Monaco
Gabriele Minì set the fastest qualifying time at the Circuit de Monaco for the second consecutive year, with Christian Mansell setting the fastest time in the second group. Nikola Tsolov started the sprint race from pole position and maintained the place, whilst Tim Tramnitz claimed second place from Laurens van Hoepen at the first corner. Mansell and Arvid Lindblad then collided at the Casino Square corner, causing their retirements and eliminating three other drivers who were caught up in the accident. The race was red-flagged to clear the track. Tsolov held his position when racing resumed, and through another safety car restart when Kacper Sztuka retired, to claim his first victory in the category.
Minì led the start of the feature race ahead of Mansell and Browning. Racing was interrupted by three safety cars; firstly when Piotr Wiśnicki collided with Charlie Wurz, secondly when Sami Meguetounif crashed whilst attempting to avoid the collided cars of Tsolov and Noel León, and thirdly when Van Hoepen hit the wall attempting to overtake Joseph Loake. The top three drivers maintained their places through each restart and Minì took his first win of the season. His victory promoted him to the lead of the Drivers' Championship, four points ahead of Browning.
Round 5: Spain
Christian Mansell achieved his first FIA Formula 3 pole position in qualifying at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, followed by Arvid Lindblad and Nikola Tsolov. Santiago Ramos started the sprint race from first place. In the opening laps of the sprint race, second-placed Sami Meguetounif collided with Ramos in an attempt to overtake, bringing out the safety car and allowing Mari Boya into the lead. Boya maintained his lead until the end of the race, which finished under safety car conditions after Sebastián Montoya and Gabriele Minì collided earlier. Boya took his first victory in the category, followed by Alex Dunne with his maiden podium finish, and Oliver Goethe.
Feature race pole-sitter Mansell led at the start but was overtaken by Lindblad on lap five. Luke Browning passed Tsolov for third place early in the race but lost the podium position to Leonardo Fornaroli in the closing laps. Lindblad claimed his second victory of the season, with Mansell and Fornaroli completing the top three. Championship leader Minì failed to score in Barcelona and dropped to third in the standings, whilst Fornaroli's podium promoted him to the lead, five points ahead of Browning.
Round 6: Austria
Browning qualified fastest at the Red Bull Ring, followed by Lindblad and Tim Tramnitz, whilst championship leader Fornaroli qualified 24th. Martinius Stenshorne started the reverse-grid sprint race from pole position, but was overtaken by Christian Mansell at the first turn and by Nikola Tsolov later on the first lap. Mansell and Tsolov then fought for the lead until the closing stages of the race, passing each other multiple times. In the closing laps, a high-speed collision between Sebastián Montoya and Alex Dunne in a battle for fourth place brought out the safety car, under which the race ended. Tsolov and Stenshorne both passed Mansell shortly before racing was paused, allowing Tsolov to take his second win of the season.
At the start of the feature race, pole-sitter Browning held his lead and Dino Beganovic progressed to the podium positions, having started fifth. Noel León started 13th and made his way to fourth place by lap 13 of 26, but contact with Oliver Goethe gave León a puncture, which dropped him outside of the points. Browning led the entire race distance to achieve his second victory of the year, followed by Gabriele Minì and Beganovic. Browning's win promoted him to first place in the Drivers' Championship, 11 points ahead of Minì.
Round 7: United Kingdom
Browning was again fastest in qualifying at Silverstone Circuit, ahead of Max Esterson and Sami Meguetounif. Heavy rain at the circuit forced the sprint race to be rescheduled from its morning slot to the evening. Noel León started first in the sprint race but was passed by Arvid Lindblad at the first corner. The race was interrupted by a safety car on lap four after an accident involving Esterson and Oliver Goethe. Lindblad led the rest of the race and claimed his third win of the season, followed by León and Matías Zagazeta, who took his first podium in the category.
Rain before the start of the feature race led to most of the drivers electing to start on wet-weather tyres, though drying conditions prompted some to pull into the pit lane after the formation lap to switch to slicks, including tenth-place starter Lindblad. Eighth-place starter Callum Voisin was one of the few drivers to start the race on slicks, and quickly made overtakes on a drying track to lead the race by lap three. An incident involving Alex Dunne, Dino Beganovic and Sophia Flörsch brought out the safety car on lap five, but a resumption of rain compelled the wet-tyre runners to stay out and allowed pole-sitter Browning to regain the lead from Voisin. A crash involving Joshua Dufek, Sebastián Montoya and Dunne then brought out another safety car on lap eight. The track began to dry again in the closing laps, giving the advantage to the slick runners and allowing Voisin back into the lead. Voisin crossed the line first, but was penalised for having made an off-track overtake earlier, demoting him to third place and handing the win to Lindblad. Gabriele Minì, who started 14th, finished second to gain the lead of the Drivers' Championship. Lindblad's double victory promoted him to second in the standings, six points behind Minì.
Round 8: Hungary
Laurens van Hoepen qualified fastest at the Hungaroring, with Nikola Tsolov second and Leonardo Fornaroli third, whilst the main title contenders qualified outside the top 12. Dino Beganovic started the sprint race from pole position, with Nikita Bedrin and Tasanapol Inthraphuvasak in second and third. On the first lap of the sprint race, Beganovic was passed by Bedrin, and he would retain the lead until the end of the race, achieving his first FIA Formula 3 victory. Inthraphuvasak passed Beganovic on lap ten after Beganovic ran wide while attempting an overtake on Bedrin. He eventually finished second, marking his first points finish and first podium in FIA Formula 3.
