The 2026 Eurocup-3 season reaches its fourth round at the iconic\u00a0Autodromo Nazionale Monza, with championship leader\u00a0James Egozi\u00a0arriving in commanding form. The Israeli driver has enjoyed an outstanding campaign so far, collecting\u00a0142 points,\u00a0four victories,\u00a0six podium finishes,\u00a0five fastest laps\u00a0and\u00a0three pole positions\u00a0from the first eight races of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His closest challenger is rookie sensation\u00a0Ean Eyckmans, who sits second on\u00a086 points, leaving Egozi with a healthy\u00a056-point advantage\u00a0as the championship enters its second half. In the Teams’ Championship,\u00a0Palou Motorsport\u00a0also leads the way with\u00a0216 points, holding the same\u00a056-point margin over\u00a0MP Motorsport\u00a0after the opening three events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A competitive field of\u00a030 drivers\u00a0will take to the track at Monza, promising another thrilling weekend of racing at one of motorsport’s most legendary venues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Known around the world as the\u00a0\u00abTemple of Speed\u00bb, Monza is one of the most iconic circuits in international motorsport. The historic\u00a05.793 km\u00a0layout features\u00a011 corners\u00a0and is renowned for its ultra-fast nature, with drivers spending around\u00a080% of the lap at full throttle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Long straights, heavy braking zones and famous corners such as\u00a0Curva Grande, the\u00a0Roggia chicane,\u00a0Ascari\u00a0and the final\u00a0Parabolica make the Italian venue one of the biggest technical challenges of the season. Low-drag efficiency, top speed, braking stability and the ability to maximise the slipstream will be crucial factors in the fight for victory, with overtaking opportunities expected into the Rettifilo and Roggia chicanes throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Track action begins on\u00a0Friday\u00a0with two Official Previous Test sessions, scheduled from\u00a009:00 to 09:40\u00a0and\u00a013:25 to 14:05. On\u00a0Saturday, the first Qualifying session will take place from\u00a009:00 to 09:20, before\u00a0Race 1\u00a0gets underway at\u00a012:35, running for\u00a030 minutes plus one lap. The weekend concludes on\u00a0Sunday\u00a0with\u00a0Qualifying 2\u00a0from\u00a009:00 to 09:20, followed by\u00a0Race 2\u00a0at\u00a013:10, again contested over\u00a030 minutes plus one lap.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
