Many championships have already begun and some have reached their conclusion: the season is heating up!


Just three months into 2025, over 180 Tatuus cars have already hit the track, with several championships wrapping up, crowning new champions, and delivering thrilling battles on some of the world's most iconic circuits.


March 15-16 will be one of just three weekends all year without Tatuus cars on track. The next break is scheduled for the final weekend of December, while the first took place during the inaugural week of the year in January. Further proof of the widespread presence of Tatuus race cars and the continuous after-sales support that follows them daily.


It’s the perfect time to look back at what has already unfolded in this action-packed 2025 season, which kicked off in New Zealand on January 10 with the Castrol Toyota Formula Regional Oceania calendar and will continue through December, when the final F4 Brazil race will bring the year to a close.



Completed Championships


The CT-FROC was among the first series to see the checkered flag, crowning Arvid Lindblad (M2 Competition) as champion after five rounds and 15 races. Seven different drivers managed to take victory in at least one race in their FT-60 cars: Zack Scoular, Nikita Johnson, Patrick Heuzenroeder, Matias Zagazeta, Sebastian Manson, Will Brown, and Lindblad himself.


Staying in Formula Regional, the FR Middle East Championship delivered its usual excitement, particularly with the battle between Evan Giltaire (ART Grand Prix), who claimed the overall title, and Freddie Slater (Mumbai Falcons). From the bright lights of Yas Marina and Lusail to the sunsets of Dubai, the 35 total entrants fought across 15 races, with 15 different drivers making it onto the podium.


The Formula 4 Middle East Championship, meanwhile, had one dominant force: Emanuele Olivieri. Running alongside the FRMEC series under Top Speed’s organization, the young Italian from R-ace took six wins and finished on the podium in 14 out of 15 races. His teammate Alex Powell was the only other driver to claim multiple victories, securing five.


New Zealand and the Middle East, but also Europe saw intense action. The Formula Winter Series featured over 30 T-421competing across Portimão, Valencia, Aragón, and Barcelona, with Gabriel Gomez (US Racing) clinching the title one round early. The Brazilian secured three wins, as did Hitech drivers Leo Robinson and Fionn McLaughlin—the latter also finishing as the best rookie.


The Iberian Peninsula also hosted the inaugural Spanish Winter Championships, featuring the winter series of F4 Spanish and EuroCup-3. Thomas Strauven (Campos Racing) emerged as the T-421 category champion, while the T-318-EC3 series will conclude on April 30 in Aragón, just before the start of the main Spanish F4 Championship.


Looking across the Atlantic, the Yacademy Winter Series wrapped up its 2025 season with Leonardo Escorpioni crowned champion. The series also delivered a spectacular photo-finish at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where Evan Cooley snatched victory by mere centimeters in a breathtaking five-car side by side battle.



Ongoing Championships


Between late February and early March, the USF Pro Championships season officially resumed at one of its most iconic venues: the Streets of St. Petersburg in Florida. As tradition, USF Pro 2000 and USF 2000 shared the paddock with the IndyCar Series, with Max Garcia (Pabst) and Liam McNeilly (Jay Howard Driver Development) currently leading their respective standings.


Meanwhile, across the American continent, the Formula 4 NACAM 2025 season kicked off last weekend at the Autódromo Miguel E. Abed in Puebla.



Ready to Get Started


In the coming weeks, numerous championships will join the active racing calendar. It all begins with the F1 Academy, which launches in Shanghai from March 21-23, followed a week later by the previously mentioned Formula 4 Spanish Championship and the Ultimate Cup Series' Hoosier Formula Cup.


April will mark the start of several more series, including the GB4 Championship (Donington Park, April 4-6), USF Juniors (NOLA Motorsports Park, April 10-13, alongside USF Pro 2000 and USF 2000), Formula 4 CEZ (Red Bull Ring, April 11-13), Wera Tools British F4 (Donington Park, April 25-27), and the GB3 Championship (April 25-27), which will see the race debut of the brand-new MSV-GB3-025!

The time has come: the MSV-GB3-025 is ready for its debut!
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 27 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

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.

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 .
Over the course of the weekend, the same channel will also broadcast the races from the second round of the GB4 Championship, which will also be on track at Silverstone. [...]

New Tatuus T-326 Unveiled: The Second-Generation Formula Regional Car
New Tatuus T-326 Unveiled: The Second-Generation Formula Regional Car

As part of the announcement of the 2026 Formula Regional Middle East Championship, the Lainate-based manufacturer and promoter Top Speed have revealed the first images of the new car.
The announcement of the 2026 edition of the Formula Regional Middle East Championship provided the perfect opportunity for a major new launch by Tatuus and ATM-Autotecnica Motori. The championship, promoted and organized by Top Speed, has established itself over the years as a key early-season event for drivers from all over the world. Now, it has confirmed that starting from next year and following the FIA validation and homologation process, it will adopt the new Tatuus T-326, the second-generation Formula Regional car, equipped with a specially adapted and prepared Toyota 3-cylinder engine by ATM .
The T-326 represents a natural evolution of the T-318 model, the Tatuus single-seater that first defined the majority of Formula Regional championships worldwide. The category was introduced alongside the car in 2018 as an intermediate step between Formula 4 and international Formula 3. With its homologation cycle and transitional period coming to an end, the T-318 is set to pass the baton to a new generation of cars at the conclusion of the current season. These new models will feature enhanced performance, higher safety standards, and technical solutions designed to improve and refine the driving experience , ultimately aiding young drivers in their journey up the single-seater pyramid.
Aerodynamics & Performance The car features a completely redesigned aerodynamic profile, shaped by the new FIA technical regulations for the category and inspired by the latest trends from the highest levels of Formula racing. The result is an overall performance boost, improved aerodynamic efficiency, and a reduction in wake effect, facilitating better overtaking conditions .
Engine, Technical and Mechanical solutions As mentioned, the car will be powered by the new Toyota-ATM 1.6-liter three-cylinder engin e, delivering 270 HP and 360 Nm of torque.
From a technical and mechanical standpoint, the T-326 introduces innovative and effective solutions aimed at improving drivability, enhancing the driver’s experience, and increasing the car’s educational value within the category . Key advancements include weight reduction, an optimized steering rack, and a revised suspension setup that provides a greater sense of lightness and ease of handling.
Safety & Driver Comfort Safety has always been a cornerstone of every Tatuus project, and this car is no exception . The chassis has been developed in accordance with the new FIA technical regulations to further enhance crash resistance. Additionally, key components such as the front and rear crash boxes, anti-intrusion panels, and roll bar have been updated to meet the latest safety standards.
Beyond safety, the cockpit has been designed to maximize driver comfort and ergonomics, accommodating both men and women across a wider height range, ensuring optimal conditions for competing on track .
The Formula Regional Middle East Championship is the first series to confirm the adoption of the new car, which now sets to undergo the FIA validation process before being fully unveiled in 2025. This marks another milestone in the longstanding collaboration between Top Speed and Tatuus, now in its 20th year.
