F3 – C1: Eriksson winner and Norris titled

Starting from pole position, Callum Ilott (Prema) made a good start but was caught by Lando Norris (Carlin) at the hairpin. The two Britons face each other in a duel which turns to the advantage of Joel Eriksson (Motopark) and Ferdinand Habsburg (Carlin). Norris, then 3^e, takes all the risks to attack his teammate and return to 2^e instead.

The positions do not change during the vast majority of rounds, bringing Lando Norris ever closer to the title. Joel Eriksson, for his part, is heading towards a 3^e victory in a row after the Red Bull Ring. Ferdinand Habsburg completes the podium in 3^e instead.

Callum Ilott finishes in a frustrating 4^e place in front of Jehan Daruvala (Carlin). Nikita mazepin (Hitech GP) finishes 6^e ahead of Pedro Piquet who separates him from his teammates Ralf Aron and Tadasuke Makino. The 10^e place of Maximilian Günther (Prema) is not enough to keep his title hopes alive.

Lando Norris is the first rookie since Esteban Ocon in 2014 to win the title in F3 and is the first non-Prema to win the laurels since the overhaul of the championship in 2012.
