From Australia to the USA, Thursday to Monday: an intense (and still ongoing) weekend!



A round-the-world journey in a single weekend aboard Tatuus single-seaters — that's the storyline of a long and thrilling weekend, which kicked off with the oval races of the USF Pro Championships and is still underway, with the final GB4 Championship races scheduled for today, May 26.



USF Pro Championships

During the Indy 500 weekend, the Carb Night Classic once again featured Tatuus cars from both the USF Pro 2000 and USF 2000 series.


In USF Pro 2000, it took just half a lap for Ariel Elkin (TJ Speed) to overtake pole-sitter Mac Clark (Exclusive Autosport) and begin a dominant run to the checkered flag over the 90 scheduled laps. The only interruption came from a Safety Car period caused by Joey Brienza’s (Exclusive Autosport) crash. At the restart, Alessandro De Tullio (Turn 3 Motorsport) seized the opportunity to move into second place, with Mac Clark completing the podium in third.


De Tullio (183 points) and Elkin (190) will continue to chase championship leader Max Garcia (Pabst Racing, 231 points) when the series resumes at Road America, June 19–22.


The USF 2000 cars took to the track before their Pro 2000 counterparts, under the setting sun at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park. A great start from pole wasn’t enough for Ayrton Houk (Benchmark Autosport) to fend off Anthony Martella (Jay Howard Driver Development), who claimed his first win of the season ahead of championship leader Thomas Schrage (VRD) and Australian Brad Majman (Jay Howard).


USF 2000 also returns to action at Road America from June 19–22.



F4 Italia

The second round of the Italian Formula 4 Championship took place at Vallelunga, once again boasting a packed grid of 40 Tatuus T-421s.


Double victory for Kean Nakamura-Berta (Prema), who strengthened his championship lead over teammate Sebastian Wheldon, the winner of Race 3, and Gabriel Gomez (US Racing), who took victory in Race 4. Other podium finishers over the weekend included Maksimilian Popov (VAR), Salim Hanna (Prema), Emanuele Olivieri (R-ace), and Alex Powell (R-ace).


The series will now take a break before returning to action at Monza from June 20–22.



Wera Tools British F4

Three races, three different winners at Snetterton: Adam Al Azhari (Rodin), August Raber (Phinsys by Argenti), and Fionn McLaughlin (Hitech).


As always, the British F4 delivered close racing and great variety on the podium, with Martin Molnar (Virtuosi), Tommy Harfield (Chris Dittmann Racing), Henry Joslyn (Fortec), Ethan Jeff-Hall (Phinsys by Argenti), and Joel Bergström (JHR) also among the top finishers.


One single weekend off lays ahead, then the series will be back in action at Thruxton (6-8 June).



GB4

The racing weekend isn’t over yet, thanks to the GB4 Championship, which held a dramatic Race 1 on Saturday at a rain-soaked Oulton Park. Victory went to Alex O’Grady (KMR), ahead of Luca Magnussen (Fortec) and Enzo Hallman (Douglas). The race saw four women finish in the top 10: Megan Bruce (4th), Ava Dobson (8th), Holly Miall (9th), and Lily-May Watkins (10th).


Race 2 and Race 3 are scheduled for today at 13:00 and 17:35 CEST, respectively, live on MSV TV.



AU4

The new AU4 Championship by AGI Sport debuted in Australia. The series positions itself as an entry-level category with mixed-brand and mixed-generation cars competing on track together. The 7 Tatuus T-421s competing at The Bend Motorsport Park in Adelaide locked out all podium positions in the three scheduled races and captured the best overall results across each one. Race wins went to Harrison Duske (Tim Macrow Racing), Noah Killion (AGI Sport), and Isaac McNeill (Volante Rosso), with Imogen Radburn (AGI Sport) taking podium finishes in all three races.


The Australian series returns to The Bend Motorsport Park on July 12–13.



Formula 4 SEA

The second round of the Formula 4 South East Asia Championship saw Alex Sawer (Evans GP) continue his dominant run, claiming victory in all three races held at the Buriram International Circuit. The first round had taken place in Sepang. Seth Gilmore (Evans GP) maintained a consistent presence on the podium, joined twice by Ayrton Asdathorn (Star Performance) and once by Iñigo Anton (BlackArts).


The third round of the championship is scheduled to return to the Buriram International Circuit on July 4–6.

All Set for the “Oval” Days of the Season!
All Set for the “Oval” Days of the Season!

USF2000 and Pro Hit the Track for the Freedom 75 and Freedom 90: The Only Oval Races of the Season for Tatuus Single-Seaters!

In Indianapolis , during the Indy 500 weekend and Memorial Day (Monday, May 26), the spotlight won’t just shine on the Speedway. The Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park will also host the USF2000 and USF Pro 2000 series as they face the only oval challenge of their season on Thursday, May 22 and Friday, May 23.

Two days of constant left-hand steering await the drivers as they tackle the short oval, just a few miles west of the legendary Speedway where these very cars competed on the road course just two weeks ago, and where the iconic Indy 500 will take place on Sunday.

Friday night is all about the Freedom 75 (USF2000) and Freedom 90 (USF Pro 2000) —or rather, the Carb Night Classic! The two races are scheduled for 8:30 PM ET and 9:30 PM ET respectively, with the glow of the floodlights illuminating the 0.686-mile oval.

Thursday is all about preparation. The day kicks off with a special clinic focused on oval racing fundamentals, led by past Freedom 90 winner and 2024 Indy 500 debutant Louis Foster, INDY NXT driver Salvador de Alba, and Michael d’Orlando, the only two-time USF2000 winner at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway. The clinic will be followed by two test sessions per category, and qualifying will take place at 4:45 PM ET (USF2000 – 9:45 PM CEST) and 5:30 PM ET (USF Pro 2000 – 11:30 PM CEST).

Qualifying, just like the whole race format, are truly unique . Cars will exit the pit lane one at a time to complete an out lap and two flying laps. The best average time over those two laps will determine the starting grid.

This two-day event is a unique and demanding challenge for drivers, teams, and for Tatuus, with specific technical adjustments required for the Continental-shod IP-20 and USF-22 machines.

In 2024, Braden Eves (for Exclusive Autosport in USF Pro 2000) and Tanner DeFabis (for Jay Howard Driver Development in USF2000) took victory in races that turned from night to morning due to heavy Friday rain. The next few hours will reveal who will join a prestigious list of winners—many of whom have gone on to reach the pinnacle of IndyCar and the Indy 500!

Races and qualifying will be streamed live on the USF Pro Championships official YouTube Channel . [...]

Podium finishes also went to Hiyu Yamakoshi (VAR) and Taito Kato (ART).

FRECA now heads to Zandvoort, swapping venues with GB3, and will race alongside the DTM from June 6 to 8.

EuroCup-3 The EuroCup-3 season kicked off at the Red Bull Ring, continuing the exciting rivalry from the Winter Championship. Race 1 was won by Mattia Colnaghi (MP Motorsport), while Race 2 went to his teammate Maciej Gładysz.

Gallery: A Successful Debut for the MSV-GB3-025!

The MSV-GB3-025 has already proven capable of delivering thrilling racing, impressing both teams and drivers!
“What a car” – that was the message Freddie Slater shared on his social channels after a weekend in which he claimed two victories out of three and took the early lead in the GB3 Championship standings.
It was a hugely successful debut , packed with exciting races through the corners of Silverstone and widespread enthusiasm across the paddock, setting the stage for what promises to be a captivating season. 25 cars lined up on the grid , with Slater dominating Race 1 and Race 2, consistently chased by Noah Lisle. Gianmarco Pradel and Nikita Johnson took turns stepping onto the third step of the podium in the opening two races.
Race 3, run with a reversed grid for the top 12 qualifiers, brought no shortage of drama, contact and wheel-to-wheel battles. At the end of it all, Will Macintyre emerged victorious, ahead of Patrick Heuzenroeder and Kai Daryanani.
One of the standout performers of the weekend was Deagen Fairclough : starting from the pit lane in Race 1 and from the back of the grid in both Race 2 and 3, the British talent fully exploited the new car’s characteristics—especially the DRS—to deliver a flurry of overtakes. His charge through the field in Race 3, gaining 18 positions to finish seventh, was particularly impressive.
After a two-week break, the GB3 Championship will return for its first race outside the UK, scheduled for May 16–18 at Zandvoort.

The time has come: the MSV-GB3-025 is ready for its debut!

The wait is finally over: the GB3 Championship and the all-new MSV-GB3-025 are ready to hit the track!

From the moment the first sketches of the MSV-GB3-025 were drawn, the countdown began. A process that evolved through multiple project stages, accelerating with excitement in October 2024 when the very first car rolled out of the Tatuus HQ. From then on, the wait took on a new form — a countdown to the first official sessions, marked by test days, driver announcements, and livery reveals. Now, just a few steps remain before the anticipation gives way to the thrill of the first qualifying session and the season’s opening three races.
Silverstone will serve as the perfect stage for the new model’s debut this weekend, featuring 25 cars on the grid, a roster of top-tier talent, and many new highlights for the series.

A new DRS challenge The opening races of the new car will also mark a historic first : the competitive debut of Drag Reduction System (DRS) on a Tatuus single-seater.
During qualifying, drivers will be allowed unlimited DRS use within the permitted zones. In races, however, DRS activation will be restricted to instances when the gap to the car ahead is less than one second, as measured at specific detection points. At Silverstone, those detection zones will be placed at Maggotts and Village, activating DRS on the Hangar and Wellington straights respectively.

10 teams, plenty of talent Two new teams join an already elite paddock, forming a highly competitive grid set to battle it out on some of Europe’s most iconic circuits.
Here are all the teams and confirmed entries for Round 1:
Argenti with Prema Reza Seewooruthun Yuanpu Cui Lucas Fluxá
Chris Dittmann Racing Rashid Al Dhaheri
Elite Motorsport Will Macintyre Bianca Bustamante Flynn Jackes

The calendar The schedule and venues are another major novelty of the upcoming season. The 2025 GB3 Championship will feature 8 rounds and 24 races: half on Britain’s legendary circuits , the other half on some of Europe’s most prestigious tracks . The grand finale, set for October 18-19 at Autodromo di Monza , promises a unique and symbolic close to the season.
Here are all the 2025 dates:

Weekend Format Each race weekend will begin with testing or free practice , followed by a qualifying session split into two 15-minute segments, separated by a 5-minute break. These will determine the grids for Race 1 and Race 2 respectively. Race 3 will once again feature the popular reverse-grid format: the top 12 from Qualifying 2 will be reversed, while positions 13 onward remain unchanged.
All three races will run for 25 minutes.

The Prizes The top five drivers in the final championship standings will receive FIA Super Licence points — with 10 points going to the champion.
The Jack Cavill Pole Position Cup returns once again: every pole will earn £300, with an additional £2,000 and a trophy awarded to the driver with the most poles over the season.
Finally, the Omologato "One to Watch Award" will reward the driver who scores the most points across Races 1 and 2 each weekend.

How to follow the Silverstone weekend
 The Silverstone races – and indeed all races throughout the season – will be streamed live on MotorSport Vision’s YouTube channel: MSV TV .
