2023 GB3 Championship

[5] The 2023 GB3 Championship opened up at Oulton Park with JHR's Joseph Loake taking a pair of pole positions.

Douglas Motorsport's Tymek Kucharczyk took both pole positions but was disqualified, allowing Carlin's John Bennett to inherit them.

This move was later judged to have happened off track, so Bennett was handed a one-place penalty, gifting the win to Loake, with Rees third.

The second race was also decided in the steward's office: Rees came first but had jumped the start, while second-placed man Bennett was penalized for a collision with Hitech's Alex Dunne.

He won the race as behind him Voisin and Elite's Oliver Stewart both earned track limit penalties, allowing Arden's Nico Christodoulou and CDR's Arthur Rogeon on the podium.

He initially lost the lead to Mavlyutov after a slow start, but the latter ran wide to allow Stewart back through.

Loake took second and pressured Stewart all race, but was unable to steal the win, while Fortec's Jarrod Waberski completed the podium.

[14][15][16] The first half of the season ended back in Britain at Snetterton, where Rees and Voisin shared pole positions.

This allowed Mavlyutov to manage his lead to win ahead of Rogeon and Douglas Motorsport's Lucas Staico.

Voisin's race two retirement and another weekend away from the front of the field for Loake allowed Dunne to take a six-point championship lead.

Loake led Voisin through two safety car periods and subsequent restarts to win, while Cresswell came home third.

The race began with multiple crashes down the order that took out six cars and involved title challenger Loake, who had to pit.

The reversed-grid third race was once again won by Mavlyutov after Elite's polesitter, debutant Patrick Heuzenroeder, crashed into turn three.

The race had almost no running under green flag conditions and also ended under safety car after extensive damage to the barriers.

Dunne's double win lifted him right back into championship contention, with the top three separated by only 17 points going into the final weekend.

[26][27][28] The final weekend of the championship, dubbed the "Donington Decider", saw Voisin stake his claim to the title early on with a double pole position.

The first race was held in damp conditions, with Voisin leading lights-to-flag ahead of Rees and Dunne to extend his standings advantage to 28 points.

The race was disrupted by two safety car periods, one of them caused by Cresswell, who lost his mathematical chance for the title.
