Gabriel Bortoleto became F3 champion at the first time of asking over the weekend as he rounded off a trophy-filled maiden campaign with the ultimate prize during the season finale at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza.
Heading into qualifying with two wins, three further podiums and a hatful of points finished behind him, the 18-year-old Brazilian – part of Fernando Alonso’s management company – emerged from the session with the margin he needed.
