From Spa to Sepang, with stops at the Red Bull Ring and Aragón: key victories, titles decided and championships still up for grabs

Eurocup-3

At Spa-Francorchamps, the Eurocup-3 spotlight was on Campos Racing’s young Mexican talents. Ernesto Rivera claimed victory in Race 1, while Jesse Carrasquedo Jr secured his second win of the season in Race 2. Consistency was the key for Mattia Colnaghi, who collected two runner-up finishes to extend his lead in the standings. His teammate and fellow Italian Valerio Rinicella now trails by 48 points.

After a short break, the series resumes at Jerez on September 20, with the title fight still wide open.

FRECA

At the Red Bull Ring, Matteo De Palo (Trident Motorsport) won Race 1, cutting his gap to championship leader Freddie Slater (Prema Racing) down to just three points. In Race 2, Brazilian driver Pedro Clerot (Van Amersfoort Racing) took his second win of the year, showcasing the depth of competition in the field.

The next round will be held in Barcelona on September 20, a date that could prove crucial in the battle for the crown.

F4 CEZ

The third edition of the F4 CEZ concluded with Jenzer Motorsport celebrating a double triumph. The Swiss squad secured the teams’ title and crowned Argentine driver Gino Trappa as champion with 294 points, thanks to six wins and five second places across the season.

Runner-up Max Karhan staged an impressive charge with 13 consecutive podiums since May, but it wasn’t enough to deny Trappa. The 2025 campaign once again underlined the growth of the Central European Formula 4, with the final round at Brno featuring a grid of 20 Tatuus T-421 cars.

Hoosier Formula Cup

At Aragón, round four confirmed Nano Lopez (TS Corse) as the man to beat. A win in Race 2 kept him at the top of the standings, while Aaron Ferrazzano (Winfield Racing) stole the spotlight with victories in Race 1 and Race 3, moving up to fourth overall.

The series returns on October 10 at Magny-Cours.

F4 SEA

At Sepang, Alex Sawer (Evans GP) maintained his dominance with victories in Race 1 and Race 3, extending his lead to 295 points. Race 2 went to Seth Gilmore, who continues to hold second place in the standings.

It was also a strong debut for Ferrari Driver Academy’s Niccolò Maccagnani (Pinnacle Motorsport) and Korean racer Kyuho Lee (Evans GP), both scoring podium finishes across the weekend. The season finale, set again at Sepang on September 19, will crown the new champion of the series.

Weekend Preview: Tatuus takes on new challenges across four fronts

Weekend Preview: Tatuus takes on new challenges across four fronts

With titles still to be decided, close gaps in the standings and championships entering key stages of the season, Tatuus faces another weekend with plenty of different stories to follow.

Brands Hatch, Monza, Navarra and Jeddah will be the four focal points of the upcoming Tatuus weekend. British F4 and E4 reach their final rounds, Spanish F4 heads into its penultimate event, while F4 Saudi Arabia takes on the second round of its season. Four circuits and four different points in the year, with standings to watch, new names to keep an eye on and recent results set to shape the races ahead.

BRITISH F4

The 2026 British F4 season reaches its final round at Brands Hatch with the title still to be decided. Dries Van Langendonck arrives in a strong position, holding a 72-point advantage over Lewis Wherrell , but with 75 points still available across the three races, the championship remains mathematically undecided.

Van Langendonck has built his advantage with eight wins, three further podiums and four pole positions, while Wherrell heads into the final round with three victories this season and a chance to turn the standings around. The two drivers are also fighting for the Rookie Cup , where the Belgian holds a 23.5-point advantage over his rival.

These will not be the only battles to watch at Brands Hatch. Hitech leads the Teams' Cup by 83.5 points over Rodin Motorsport , while Theo Palmer , currently third in the drivers' standings, can still challenge for second place.

The final round comes at the end of a season that has produced 13 different race winners and 19 different podium finishers, with 42 drivers representing 21 nationalities.

Weekend schedule:
Saturday • 11:15 – Qualifying • 16:00 – Race 1
Sunday • 10:00 – Race 2 • 15:15 – Race 3
The races will be streamed live on the championship's official YouTube channel.

E4

Nine races, three events and a standings battle that will be settled over three final races at Monza. The E4 Championship heads into its final round with Kenzo Craigie leading on 138 points, while Luka Sammalisto is just 14 points behind. Alp Aksoy completes the top three on 112 points.

Craigie has been one of the standout surprises of the season. The Mercedes Junior driver with R-ace GP has claimed three wins and built his advantage race by race, but at Monza he will face an opponent arriving at the final round with a title already secured. Sammalisto wrapped up the Italian F4 championship with a round to spare and can now target a second title, matching the feat achieved by Kean Nakamura-Berta in 2025.

Aksoy, meanwhile, arrives at Monza with one win and third place in the standings to defend. The Turkish Prema driver will be one of the names to watch in a field that will reach 37 drivers for the final round, representing more than 20 nationalities and including several new faces.

Among them will be two young Prema drivers: 15-year-old Brazilian Victoria Farfus , who has experience in karting and Ginetta competition and has also taken part in the F1 Academy testing programme this year, and fellow 15-year-old Italian Filippo Sala , who comes from a strong karting background with BirelART and is a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy.

Monza will therefore bring together a highly international field for the final three races of the season. Craigie, Sammalisto and Aksoy will arrive with different objectives, while the newcomers will have their first opportunity to measure themselves against the E4 field.

Weekend schedule:
Friday • 17:20 – Qualifying
Saturday • 13:45 – Race 1
Sunday • 08:30 – Race 2 • 13:40 – Race 3
All sessions will be streamed live on the championship's YouTube channel

SPANISH F4

Spanish F4 heads to Navarra for the penultimate round of the season, with just 20 points separating the top three in the standings. Kasper Schormans leads the way on 182 points, but Noah Monteiro is only seven points behind, with Borys Lyzen a further 13 points back. With three races on the schedule, Navarra could significantly reshape the top of the standings ahead of the final round in Barcelona.

Monteiro will be one of the drivers to watch closely. After scoring podium finishes in all three races at Jerez, the Campos Racing driver has shown the consistency needed to close the gap at the top and will arrive in Navarra with a real opportunity to take the lead. Schormans, meanwhile, will be looking to protect his advantage, while Lyzen remains close enough to take advantage of any opportunity to move further into the fight.

Rocco Coronel also arrives in Navarra with momentum after winning the final race at Jerez, ending a long wait for another victory following his double win at the opening round in Valencia. It will be interesting to see whether he can maintain that return to the front at Navarra, with the Barcelona season finale only a few weeks away.

Weekend schedule:
Saturday • 09:00 – Qualifying 1 • 11:15 – Race 1 • 14:30 – Race 2
Sunday • 09:00 – Qualifying 2 • 13:00 – Race 3
The races will be streamed live on the championship's official YouTube channel:

F4 SAUDI ARABIA

F4 Saudi Arabia heads into its second round of the season in Jeddah, with the event taking place across Wednesday 7 and Thursday 8 of October. The opening race saw Marlon Bayer take victory ahead of Abdullah Kamel and Archie Owen , while F1 Academy driver Rachel Robertson finished tenth.

The second round is already underway: following the opening race in Jeddah, Thursday's programme features a second qualifying session and Race 2, providing another opportunity to follow the battle among the championship contenders.

Schedule:
Thursday • 16:50 – Qualifying 2 • 20:45 – Race 2

Destination Macau: the T-326 and T-421 set to star in the 2026 FIA World Cups

Destination Macau: the T-326 and T-421 set to star in the 2026 FIA World Cups

The FIA has officially confirmed the adoption of Tatuus single-seaters for the 2026 Formula Regional and Formula 4 World Cups.
Tatuus cars, already competing in national and regional championships around the world, will once again take center stage on the prestigious streets of Macau for the FIA Formula Regional World Cup and FIA Formula 4 World Cup. From 19 to 22 November, 13 teams in Formula Regional and 12 teams in Formula 4 will battle on the iconic Guia Circuit. For the T-326 , this will mark its debut in Macau, following the T-318's appearances in the Formula Regional World Cup in 2024 and 2025. For the T-421 , it will be a welcome return after making its Macau debut in the Formula 4 World Cup in 2023.

“Motorsport works like magic, capable of inspiring that uniquely Italian determination to keep believing in something even when the numbers don’t add up.”

“Motorsport works like magic, capable of inspiring that uniquely Italian determination to keep believing in something even when the numbers don’t add up.”

The words of CEO Giovanni Delfino in an interview with la Repubblica.

The CEO of Tatuus, ATM – Autotecnica Motori, and the Korus Group was featured in an interview published today in la Repubblica and written by Irene Saderini. During the conversation, he reflected on some of the most important and defining moments of his career, while also sharing his views on several aspects of the global motorsport industry.
The full interview is available on repubblica.it .

A Personal Journey A central theme of the interview is the CEO’s personal story, which began with his decision to pursue engineering studies and continued through a career marked by bold choices and decisive moments: “I don’t believe in luck; I believe in being able to seize it. When an opportunity comes your way, you have to recognize it. That said, it would be unfair to claim I wasn’t fortunate. I joined the company when I had virtually nothing. The founder allowed me to repay my debt over time, and I only finished paying the last installments two or three years ago.”
Delfino also spoke about his early years at Alfa Corse, where he developed his passion for experimentation and performance engineering: “At heart, I am a track engineer. I worked in the testing departments, where our job was to find that extra half horsepower from a finished product. My first experiences came in Alfa Romeo Touring Cars, with drivers such as Giovanardi, Tarquini and Larini competing against BMW and Mercedes. Sometimes those extra two horsepower were what won you the race.”

Formula 4 and Driver Development Among the key topics discussed was the production of Formula racing cars and engines, today one of the cornerstones of the Korus Group: “Everything starts with studying the regulations, which always leave room for interpretation—and success comes from finding the right one.” Speaking about Formula 4 engines, Delfino explained: “It all starts with a four-cylinder Fiat 500 Abarth unit. It must cost less than €16,500 due to the price cap and last 10,000 kilometres. My objective is to ensure that every engine performs the same.” The reward is seeing young talents progress step by step through the motorsport ladder and ultimately reach the highest levels of the sport: “It was particularly rewarding to see Andrea Kimi Antonelli begin his career in one of our cars.”

The Motorsport Industry The interview also included a broader reflection on the remarkable momentum motorsport is experiencing worldwide: “Motorsport sometimes works like a kind of magic, capable of overcoming marketing logic and keeping alive that uniquely Italian determination to believe in something even when the numbers don’t add up.”
Particularly representative of the Korus Group’s vision was Delfino’s perspective on internal combustion and electric powertrains: “For me, the smell of a winning engine is the smell of gasoline, hard work and sacrifice. A twelve-cylinder engine on track is like a violin—actually, an entire orchestra of violins. Racing is my world, and I find it difficult to see any of that emotion in batteries alone. Hybrid technology, however, is a different story. We are part of the FIA working group on the new regulations, and I find the hybrid approach very compelling.”

Tatuus Celebrates the 500th T-421, the World’s Most Widely Used Formula 4 Car

Tatuus Celebrates the 500th T-421, the World’s Most Widely Used Formula 4 Car

The Lainate-based manufacturer has celebrated the production and delivery of the 500th chassis of the single-seater on which Kimi Antonelli and Arvid Lindblad developed their careers.

Born in 2021, the Tatuus T-421 reached its 500th unit produced and delivered in May 2026, once again confirming its status as one of the most manufactured and successful racing single-seaters worldwide. The milestone was celebrated by the Lainate-based brand together with all its employees and the sister companies of the Korus group, which contribute daily to the T-421 project: ATM–Autotecnica Motori, Breda Racing, and Next Solution Technologies.
Today, the T-421 is the most widely used Formula 4 car in the world, competing across 16 championships spanning Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania. Behind its wheel, some of the most exciting talents in contemporary motorsport have developed, including Kimi Antonelli and Arvid Lindblad , who built the first steps of their single-seater careers in the second-generation Tatuus F4 before progressing all the way to the pinnacle of Formula 1.
“The 500th T-421 is not only a major milestone for Tatuus, but also an important achievement for the entire international motorsport ecosystem,” said Giovanni Delfino, CEO of Tatuus and the Korus Group. “With the introduction of Formula 4 in 2014, the FIA created a new pathway between karting and single-seaters, enabling drivers to arrive better prepared for higher categories. This model has established itself through years of significant growth in motorsport, during which many championships were launched and expanded, now reaching grids of nearly 50 cars per round with the second generation we celebrate today. These are figures that were difficult to imagine at the beginning of this journey, but which now define the everyday reality of many of the companies within the Korus Group.”
“Throughout Tatuus’ history, many of our models have achieved widespread adoption across global championships and have demonstrated unparalleled driver development capabilities,” added Gianfranco De Bellis, President of Tatuus and the Korus group. “The T-421 is writing an important chapter in the history of our brand and, together with the first-generation car, is now approaching 800 units produced. These volumes allow us to aim toward the milestone of 1,000 F4 single-seaters, a figure previously approached by the various Formula Renault models that marked a turning point in our history and in the development path of many drivers.”
As the second generation of Formula 4 single-seaters, the T-421 succeeded the T-014, which from 2014—the year Formula 4 was introduced—through 2021 was produced in just under 300 units. It represented the ideal platform for drivers transitioning from karting to single-seaters, and helped develop talents such as Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, Max Verstappen, Isack Hadjar, Liam Lawson, Lance Stroll, Oliver Bearman, Gabriel Bortoleto, and Franco Colapinto.
The T-421 is just one of many examples of the cooperation that makes the Korus group one of the leading global ecosystems in motorsport engineering. The companies within the Group involved in the celebration have contributed to the project from day one, within a consolidated model of synergies that each year gives rise to new cars, powertrains, and solutions for motorsport.
Specifically, ATM–Autotecnica Motori developed and supplies the Abarth-derived inline four-cylinder engine that powers the car, while Breda Racing is responsible for a large portion of the components—such as the halo and suspension arms—as well as instrumentation required for managing the cars both on track and at HQ. Next Solution Technologies provides a significant part of the car’s electronic and electromechanical systems, in addition to supplying steering wheels and rain lights.
However, the milestone of 500 cars does not represent a finishing point for Tatuus. Production of the current model will continue through 2028 , when FIA regulations foresee the introduction of the third-generation car , on which the brands of the Korus Group are already actively working.
