Cedars Key Success Factors

- Technical Excellence: Our main asset is our people. Our team of engineers and technicians has been selected having extensive experience in Motor Sport and at the highest level (including Formula1).
- Pilot Preparation: More than a team, we are a school for young Formula 3 drivers. The training and development of our drivers is our main goal, ensuring each and every one of them a continuous and personalized coaching by former Formula 3 champions Marco and Alvaro Barba.
- Team Spirit: Making all our engineers, drivers and staff feel they belong to a large family is essential to maintaining the winning spirit and high dedication of all members. This atmosphere makes it a pleasure to live our passion.
European F3 Championship
The European F3 Open Championship (formerly the Spanish Formula Three Championship) is a junior formula racing series. It is an important championship in Europe that is viewed by many as a “career ladder” to Formula One.
The championship's first season was held in 2001. In recent years the Championship has become less centered in Spain, with races
across Europe, and has successfully attracted famous non-Spanish teams to take part.
In 2012, with 16 races to be held on 8 renowned European tracks, the European F3 Open is set to be the most recognized Formula 3 championship in all of Europe.
