F4 Australia 2015

Not sure if this belongs here, MODS feel free to move it

You may have heard CAMS is intending to introduce the FIA Formula 4 category into Australian Motorsport in 2015.

There is very limited information being made available by CAMS as to how the introduction of the category will be funded. The recent CAMS questionnaire on Formula 4 suggested that CAMS would own the racecars and possibly cover the operation of the championship. Conservative estimates from within motorsport suggest that an investment of millions would be required.

Each licence holder and car club should assess if they are satisfied with the approach CAMS is taking with the introduction of the Formula 4 category into the circuit racing discipline.

In 2013 the CAMS licence holders were
Circuit 16%
Rally 14%
Off Road 5%
General 65%

Given that this potentially significant investment will be allocated to a small percentage of the CAMS members, licence holders or car clubs should contact CAMS as soon as possible to indicate their support or otherwise of CAMS’ approach or to request specific information from CAMS to satisfy any concerns they may have.

CAMS contact details as on the CAMS website www.cams.com.au, contact your local office or more directly contact the CAMS board representative or State Council Chairman in your state
