Within the A FM, the For mu la Three class
has grow n by roughly 50 pe rcen t in the last yea r,
with last mon th's Sea rs Point eve nt see ing a grid

with a whopping 4B racers.
Pole-positioned Vicky ja ckson-Bell got th e

a misfire on the back section of the circuit ca used
her to d rop back tw o po sit ion s to thi rd in th e
