As was often the norm this was yet another airfield race for the German F3 teams but there was quite a large turnout of Swedes to bolster the field at this 3.59 km track.
There were three F3 races held, one for the 1-litre cars which I’ve ignored, a 23 lap race for the 1600cc cars and a 14 lap race for “Klasse Formel 3 Auswels” which I’m told translates as F3 Class Card or Pass, I’m guessing it might be for holders of Restricted/National licenses. Whether the cars were 1600cc or 1-litre or a mixture of both isn’t clear so I am including the results.
