ONTARIO FORMULA LIBRE SPRINTS

FORMULA LIBRE - 2010

An open wheel series for mixed classes with lots of action.

FORMULA LIBRE

The Formula Libre series is for all single-seaters and lightweight sports racers, providing some of the fastest competition in Ontario. Formula Libre competitors include Formula Mazda, Formula Renault, Radical and Formula 2000 and Canadian-built Formula Four cars.
While Indy Lights, Formula Atlantic and BOSS Series cars are allowed to compete most cars are in the less than $10,000 bracket, and are a good next step up from Karting.
New for 2010, BGR Team Grote will contest the entire season with an Elan DP02 in full IMSA Prototype Lites trim with three time Ontario GT1 Champion Nick Majors at the wheel.

You will enjoy watching this series.
