Formula 3 will return to Monaco’s legendary city circuit next year with the Youth Series as one of the Formula 1 support races in the race weekend program.
The Automobile Club of Monaco, the organizer of motorsport competitions in the Mediterranean principality, has today announced the start of ticket sales for the 2023 Grand Prix, including confirmation that one of the F3 stages will also take place on May 25-28. .
Until this year, during the days of the Monaco Grand Prix, participants in Formula 2 and the Formula Regional European Championship, among others, competed.
The Monte Carlo race is only the second of the already confirmed stages of the F3 calendar for 2023: it is also known that for the first time in history the Australian circuit at Albert Park will host the youth series on the first weekend of April .
But in Formula 3 there are usually 30 cars on the grid and the track in Monaco just doesn’t suit it, so the FIA, together with the local promoter, has yet to find a way to reduce the number of entrants.
A detailed weekend schedule has not yet been made public, so it is unclear whether Monaco will host one Formula 3 race or, as usual, two.
Before the advent of modern F2, this urban circuit has traditionally hosted Formula 3000 races and then GP2 stages – this was the case from 1998 to 2016. But the races of the category, which was called Formula 3, were held there earlier – from 1964 to 1997, and in 2005 the Euroseries F3 stage was held, and both races of the weekend were then won by Lewis Hamilton, who played for the ASM team (now called ART).
And the very first winner of the F3 race in Monaco in 1964 was Jackie Stewart.
