The Marlboro Masters of Formula 3 are coming up at Zandvoort, Holland (August 6th) and winning there seems to be a good ticket up the autosport ladder, so who do you think has the best chance?
I have the entries so far here, here's just a few:
1 Antonio Pizzonia (British championship leader)
4 Jonathan Cochet (Winner at Pau)
5 Jeroen Bleekemolen (Local favourite)
6 Tom Van Bavel (Impressive in FFord last year at Zandvoort)
7 Narain Karthikeyan (Stewart Racing, always up there)
8 Tomas Scheckter (Pizzonia's friend)
10 Takuma Sato (British front runner)
11 Ben Collins (Takuma's team-mate)
16 Nicolas Kiesa (Has never been at Zandvoort, but he was impressive in FFord last year)
20 Tiago Monteiro (Impressive in France this season)
21 Julien Beltoise (see 20)
32 Philip Cloostermans (Difficult season so far in German F3, but huge Zandvoort experience)
42 Nicolas Stelandre (From Belgium, and knows Zandvoort as he knows Zolder)
43 Val Hillebrand (See 43, still young and restless though)
There is a German Formula 3 round that weekend aswell, so most of the German teams will be missing. Whoever thought of that? Where are you gonna get 100,000 spectators for Formula 3? Well, tickets are 35 guilders (about 15 USD) this year (used to be free)...
Take your pick gentleman (and ladies). My money is on Scheckter, although Stewart has always struggled at Zandvoort.
Cheers, Dave
PS. *Shameless plug* We'll be covering the entire weekend live from Zandvoort on Formula-3.com (live pics, interviews, reports etc).
