The three-way battle will be on for the top spot, and with the momentum currently swinging Jack Doohan’s way after his three-peat in Sepang, the racing is sure to be fierce. The records show that, at least at the front of the pack, this season has been incredibly close.

The rest of the field has been a mixed bag, which is surprising, considering what is on offer. The F3 Asian Championship offers an incredible number of FIA Super License points: 18 for the victor, then 14, 12, 10… all the way down to 1 point for ninth place. For example, Spaniard Sebastián Fernández is currently fifth in the championship, despite only taking part in two out of the four rounds so far this season.

It’s clear that the F3 Asian Championship has struggled to find its feet, with European hopefuls still flocking to New Zealand’s Toyota Racing Series, despite far less Super License points on offer. But it’s also clear that the F3 Asian Championship has the potential to become a competitive winter series. 2019 winner Ukyo Sasahara has graduated to a full time Super GT drive, and regular Daniel Cao is now a Formula E development driver.
