The FIA Formula 3 championship is widely recognised as one of the most competitive stepping stones on the pathway to Formula 1, attracting some of the brightest young driving talents from across the world.

  • Monaco is one of the most celebrated rounds of the FIA Formula 3 calendar
  • The street circuit demands exceptional precision and racecraft from competitors
  • FIA Formula 3 is a premier feeder series to the highest levels of motorsport

Pride of a Nation

David's appearance at Monaco is expected to draw significant attention from Sri Lankan motorsport enthusiasts and supporters back home, many of whom will be watching with great anticipation as one of their own competes among the world's best young racing drivers.

His debut in Monaco represents not just a personal milestone, but a proud moment for Sri Lankan sport on an internationally celebrated stage.
