Difference between revisions of "2017 AutoReject 3.5 season"

Revision as of 09:59, 6 November 2014

The 2017 AutoReject 3.5 season will be the second season of AutoReject 3.5. The series was rebranded from International Formula Reject Challenge due to a charity organization already using the same abbreviation (IFRC). Many loopholes from the previous set of regulations were ironed out, with the aim of the series being held in a higher regard in the motorsport world. The rebranding would also see a move to establish the former F1 Rejects Development Series as a direct feeder series, AutoReject 2.0.

The regular season was preceded by the non-championship Middle Eastern Cup, which was organised to properly test the new technical package's capabilities.
