History
Last race of 2011 Season.

The great attraction of this category was the low cost, thus enabling the continuation of drivers coming out of karting to develop their skills driving formula racing cars for when they arrive overseas in a luggage grade experience in next-generation cars.

The category has a great concern of the organization in its development, making the most of the driver season, where every driver has his box prepared by the organization, transportation of cars, mechanics, engineers, fuel, tires, maintenance, everything included in package accession to the rank of the drivers.

The car

The car was designed to comply with the Signatech-Fiat. The FPT engine have 150 hp and a top speed of more than 200 km/h. The transmission has five forward speeds with sequential shift mechanism. Pirelli is the single tyre supplier for the championship.

Regulation

Drivers have four free patrice sessions of 30-minutes and 20-minutes. On Saturday drivers have a qualifying session. The qualifying session decides the grid order for Saturday's race.

On Sunday race, the grid is decided by the Saturday result with top 8 being reversed, so the driver who finished 8th on Saturday will start from pole position and the winner will start from 8th place.[2]
