RECARO Formula 3 Cup

Ho-Pin Tung: Champion with
Opel-Spiess power

Following Harald Schlegelmilch's early title triumph in the RECARO Formula 3 Trophy, the RECARO Formula 3 Cup title now also has been secured. And again, the title was won early - by Ho-Pin Tung. The young Chinese residing in the Netherlands also achieved this major success with an Opel engine and thanks to the tuning efforts of Spiess. At the Salzburgring, Austria, the 23-year old Asian clinched the title by finishing runner-up in the weekend's first round and winning the second.

Hence, Harald Schlegelmilch's team, HS Technik, and Ho-Pin Tung's JB Motorsport may be regarded as the winners of the season when the RECARO Formula 3 Cup will travel to Oschersleben for its season finale, held in late September. When it comes to the rookie rankings, however, the circuit located in the Magdeburger Börde region will be the venue of the title decision. But it looks as if the rookie title of Germany's fastest single-seater series will also be secured by the successful cooperation Opel-Spiess, as the reliable and confident Harald Schlegelmilch holds the lead in this ranking, too.

Following the creation of the RECARO Formula 3 Cup, back in 2003, the championship has been won by the Opel-Spiess engine package four consecutive times. Three times with a Dallara chassis and now, in 2006, for the first time with a Lola chassis. A success of the British chassis manufacturer that will be highly appreciated.
