1992 British Formula Three Rd. 3

Round Three of the British F3 1999 was held at Thruxton on 20 April 1992.

The race winner was Gil de Ferran, his second win in as many events. The race was stopped and not restarted due to a fatal accident which claimed the life of Marcel Albers.

Report
In qualifying, the third of the season, Gil de Ferran took pole and was leading the race until a tragic accident occurred.

Having recovered from earlier gearbox troubles, Marcel Albers of Alan Docking Racing was running behind his team-mate Elton Julian on Woodham Hill, just before the braking area to the Club chicane, when he hit the back of Julian's car. His Ralt cartwheeled across the track, and smashed into the safety fencing, where he lay stricken in his car for an hour. Having been extracted from his car, he died on the way to the medical centre. He posthumously finished 7th in the race (which had been stopped after the accident) and 3rd in the championship after this race. Because the race was stopped, this meant that de Ferran was classed as the winner, and the Class B victory went to Steve Arnold.
