Costs
The typical operating budget of an Asian F3 team is circa £80,000, in comparison to the £400,000 that a leading British F3 team requires from its drivers. This fact, coupled with a steady rise in its international profile, serves to attract a number of European drivers who lack the budget that is required to compete in the established European championships.
The winner of the drivers' championship title is rewarded with a fully sponsored entry to the end-of-season, non-championship Macau Grand Prix.
For 2007/08 season, the winner of the drivers' championship will be rewarded with a Formula 1 test drive with the Force India F1 Team.

“It costs more to maintain ten vices than one virtue.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“It costs you something to do good!”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“To exercise power costs effort and demands courage. That is why so many fail to assert rights to which they are perfectly entitled—because a right is a kind of power but they are too lazy or too cowardly to exercise it. The virtues which cloak these faults are called patience and forbearance.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
