Now, Eurocup-3 is ready for a new adventure, visiting France for the first time in its short life. The French venue is a quite well-balanced circuit, where there is a bit of everything: fast corners and flat-out straights as well as slower and more technical sections. At 12 metres wide, there are plenty of options when it comes to lines and overtaking: all providing an interesting challenge for the drivers.
As it stands…
Spa-Francorchamps and Red Bull Ring proved a fantastic start to the season for Mp Motorsport taking all wins. The Portugal was different, with Christian Ho emergin with R1 & R2 wins to put himself into the battle for the title alongside Sainteloc Racing’s Alexander Abkhazava, who took the win in crazy final lap in Race 3 in Portimao.
