Indian Formula 3?

[Alessio]

I have just found that an Indian, Czech Republican and Polish F3 championship once existed in the 90's and even in the case of Poland existed as recently as 2006.

I found out with this website (http://www.motorsportsresults.com/INDEX.Monoplaces.html) and was wondering if anyone had any other information or whether these F3 championships were run alongside other junior formulae or F.Libre? The Indian championship is really interesting, because drivers like Marc Goossens, Jamie Spence and Warren Hughes have all apparently competed and won races in it.

It's like the MRF Challenge, a current Indian championship with F3 cars. This year Ellinas won it.

That's interesting. I always assumed the Madras GP was a single weekend event, but from those results there seems to have been a mini-series held on two consecutive weekends.

Indeed it was. The series was rejuvenated in 1999 on the same format. From memory, the main front runners were Martin O'Connell and Charles Hall in TOMS Toyotas and Jeremie Dufour in a Carlin run Dallara.
