On the F1® grid, all eyes will be on Melbourne-born Oscar Piastri as he embarks on his much-hyped debut season for the McLaren team.
Jack Doohan, son of Australian MotoGP™ legend Mick Doohan, remains with Virtuosi Racing for his second season in F2®, following an impressive 6th place finish in 2022.
Young Australians Christian Mansell, Tommy Smith and Hugh Barter will all make their full-time debut in F3®.
Practice and qualifying sessions for the three categories will begin on Friday, and the final qualifying session for F1® will take place on Saturday afternoon.
Sprint races for both F2® and F3® will bring another level of excitement on Saturday, a shorter race format where the grid is determined by reversing the top 10 finishers of Friday's qualifying session results.
