Season start in Tuscany

Drexler - Automotive Formula Cup - Mugello (ITA)

The Drexler Formula Cup starts its 10th season in Mugello. At the end of 2012, the FIA announced the end of the national Formula 3 championships. One of the leading teams at that time was called Austria Formula 3 Cup, which had to stop its sporting ambitions virtually overnight. But there were patrons and sponsors of the Formula 3 scene even back then. The Remus Formula Cup was the next step. After that, with the support of Drexler-Automotive GmbH from Salzweg in Bavaria, the current Formula Sprint Series was successfully continued and established as one of the most attractive Formula Series in Europe. Due to the cooperation with the ZINOX F2000 Trophy, which presents the Formula 3 scene in Italy, the Drexler Formula Cup can also offer a top-class calendar this season. The first stop this year is Mugello (March 24-25, 2023). Last year, the 5.245-kilometer race track in Tuscany hosted the finale, and if you will, the start of the season fits in seamlessly.

Fine-tuning the class division

Drexler Automotive Formula Cup

Why not stick to the tried and tested in many respects? This is the credo under which the Drexler Formula Cup enters the new season, which starts on the last weekend in March in Mugello, Italy. The purely technical regulations for the vehicles remain unchanged from last year. But there is a new class division. "We have discussed this step for a long time in our organization and from this year we want to take the new path with only three classification classes," says coordinator Franz Wöss. This will give the teams the chance to participate in the Drexler Formula Cup with very different formula cars, especially on the engine side. The rule will remain that the teams are free to choose their tire brand and that two sets of slick tires will be available each weekend. The new class to the formula 3 Cup will place itself as spearhead of the formula racing series. Formula 3 cars built between 2012 and 2018 with an air intake of 28 mm are eligible here. Also eligible to start are the F320 with Toyota Moren with max. 31 mm air intake, as well as the Formula 3 cars with VW Power Engine, the Formula Master cars and the Tatuus race cars from Formula Regional. The differences in performance are equalized by the minimum weights of the cars.

Top-class schedule for this season

Drexler-Automotive Formula Cup

The Drexler Formula Cup has established itself as one of the most attractive formula racing series in Europe. This is also proven by the now fixed schedule for this year's season. The series will stop at seven race tracks where Formula 1 is at home. "We have once again succeeded in offering a really demanding schedule at seven European race tracks. The fact that Spa, Red Bull Ring, Imola, Mugello, Hungaroring and Hockenheim are among the most renowned race tracks in Europe makes us a little proud. It has always been the wish of participants in formula racing series to be able to race where the top class sets up its tents," says Franz Wöss. The Drexler Formula Cup coordinator has been able to count on the partnership with the Zinox F2000 Trophy in Italy for the season planning. The formula series in Italy will run under a new name in 2023 and will continue its cooperation with the Drexler Formula Cup.
