This is the 2024 Formula 3 champion
- Sandy van Wijngaarden
Prior to the final race of the season, there were four drivers with a chance of winning the title. The main race in Monza was a spectacular battle until the very last corner. In the end, Leonardo Fornaroli managed to get just enough points to clinch the title. This made Fornaroli the Formula 3 champion.
Before the race, Leonardo Fornaroli was the championship leader. He started the main race in Monza with 133 points. Gabriele Mini had 130 points entering the race. Luke Browning also still had a chance of winning the title with 128 points. Technically, Arvid Lindblad also had a chance with his 113 points.
Browning's title chances were soon over. The Brit made a mistake that landed him in the grid and forced him to continue at the very back of the field. As a result, he did not score a single point. Fornaroli and Mini were trailing for a very long time during the Monza race. Just before the end, Fornaroli was overtaken by Mansell. This would ensure that he would not win the title. At the last corner on the last lap, Fornaroli overtook Mansell alone again.
Who will be the F3 champion in 2024?
Despite Mini finishing ahead of Fornaroli, the points difference was just too little for Mini to win the title. So in the end, this made Fornaroli the 2024 Formula 3 champion at the last corner.
