All major championships in the UK ie. FFord, Renault, F3 are really expensive for ford to run competatively in the championship, eurocup and festival will cost about £120,000 this means buying the top equipment plenty of tyres and plenty of testing(testing is most important to an inexperienced hopeful).
Also FFord is a "2 year" championship, this means that to win it you need to use one year to practice and try to get some good results by the end of the year in order to secure a good drive for the next season when you can win it.
basically so far you have spent £240k in ford, but earning £600 for a win, £10,000 for winning the championship
Renault is not an important championship you do not need to do this unless you have not done well in ford. This costs between £150k and £200k (dont know the precise details)
F3 one year in this to come in the top 3(all depends on previous years) This costs around £500k or less depending on subsidies.
How much have we spent now £900k'ish
From there you could do a jenson and go straight to F! or spend the rest of your life in F3000 or America.
