13 drivers from nine countries and five teams have registered to compete full-time in the 2010 Formula 3 Euro Series. In the past six years, the French ART team won the title every year with Jamie Green, Lewis Hamilton, Paul Di Resta, Romain Grosjean, Nico Hülkenberg and Jules Bianchi. This year, the team has entered Finnish driver Valtteri Bottas, Briton Alexander Sims and Frenchman Jim Pla. Sims and Bottas will be taking on their second season in the Formula 3 Euro Series. Last year, Bottas already won the international Masters of Formula 3 at Zandvoort and he is considered as one of the title favourites. Sims scored one race win at the Nürburging last year. Pla is a rookie, he caught the attention with good results in the Formula BMW Europe.
