H\u00e4kkinen started the year strongly with three wins from the first four races, but Salo responded with four victories in the next six events to establish an 11-point advantage over his rival. The 11th round of the series at Snetterton proved a turning point, however, as Salo spun out while leading, allowing H\u00e4kkinen to begin a sequence of six wins from the final seven rounds which would allow him to seal the title with two rounds to spare.H\u00e4kkinen’s reward would be a deal to race with the Lotus F1 team in 1991, although Salo’s career momentum was ruined by a drunk-driving charge that forced him to move to Japan to further his career.[1] Other drivers in the field that went on to enjoy success in international motorsport included Christian Fittipaldi, who went on to win the International Formula 3000 championship the following year before enjoying stints in F1 and CART, and future touring car and sportscar driver Peter Kox.1990 also marked the start of a dominant period for Mugen-Honda engines, which would power each British F3 champion until 2005 with only one exception. Charles Rickett won the Class B title in a year-old Volkswagen-powered Ralt.Table of ContentsDrivers and Teams[edit]Race calendar and results[edit]Championship Standings[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Drivers and Teams[edit]TeamChassisEngineNo.DriverRoundsClass ABowman RacingRalt RT33Volkswagen-Spiess1 Steve RobertsonAll4 Philippe AdamsAll12 Fernando Plata1\u20137 Stephen Hepworth10\u20131714 Peter Kox1\u201310, 12\u201317West Surrey RacingRalt RT34Mugen-Honda2 Mika H\u00e4kkinenAll3 Christian FittipaldiAll16 Minoru TanakaAllPaul Stewart RacingReynard 903Mugen-Honda5 Paul Stewart1\u20133Ralt RT344\u201317Reynard 9036 Derek Higgins1\u20134Ralt RT345\u201317Alan Docking RacingRalt RT34Mugen-Honda7 Mika SaloAll8 Hideki NodaAllSwallow RacingReynard 903Mugen-Honda10 Julian Westwood1\u20134Ralt RT345\u201317Reynard 90311 Jonathan McGall1\u20133Ralt RT344\u201317Formula ServicesReynard 903Alfa Romeo18 Jose Cordova1\u20134 Adri\u00e1n Fern\u00e1ndez5Hubbard RacingReynard 903Opel20 Hilton Cowie5\u20139, 13\u201315, 17Ralt RT3394321 Niko Palhares3\u20134Ralt RT345\u20139Racefax MotorsportRalt RT32Mazda23 Alain Menu1\u20132, 4Dawson Auto DevelopmentsReynard 903Alfa Romeo25 Ant\u00f3nio Sim\u00f5es2\u20133, 5, 10\u201311, 13, 17Tech-Speed MotorsportReynard 903Volkswagen-Spiess27 Gary Ayles1\u20134, 6\u20139 Scott Stringfellow1328 Jordi Gen\u00e9AllHepworth RacingReynard 903Volkswagen-Spiess30 Stephen Hepworth1\u20136 Jason Elliott9\u201310 Henrik Larsen11\u201314 Ross Hockenhull16Superpower EngineeringReynard 903Volkswagen-Spiess33 Paul Warwick1Ralt RT34Mugen-Honda2\u20139 Bernard Dolan10 Gary Ayles11\u201317Team Itchi-BanReynard 903Mugen-Honda37 Nic J\u00f6nsson15\u20131638 Mikael Gustavsson1539 Linus Lundberg15G-Son RacingReynard 903Volkswagen-Spiess40 Fredrik Ekblom1Diamond RacingReynard 903Volkswagen-Spiess44 C\u00e9sar Tiberio Jim\u00e9nez4Reynard R&DReynard 903BMugen-Honda50 Jason Elliott11, 13, 15\u201317Class BPeter Lea RacingReynard 873Alfa Romeo51 Eddie Kimbell1\u201313 Sandy Brody14\u201317Reynard 88356 Alan Tulloch1\u201310, 13\u201317Stronghold RacingRalt RT32Toyota52 Steve Bradley1\u20134, 6, 8\u201311, 14Ralt RT33Volkswagen-Spiess15, 17Steve DeeksReynard 883Alfa Romeo53 Steve Deeks5\u20138, 10, 17Bowman RacingRalt RT33Volkswagen-Spiess54 Charles Rickett1\u201313 Darren Shaw14, 16 Dana Brewer15, 17Tollbar RacingRalt RT32Volkswagen-Spiess55 Juan SerdaAllDavies RacingRalt RT31Volkswagen-Spiess57 Tony Davies1, 4\u20136, 10, 17Tech-Speed MotorsportReynard 873Volkswagen-Spiess58 Paul Smith10G-Son RacingReynard 883Volkswagen-Spiess60 Monica Str\u00e5th1Racefax MotorsportRalt RT32Volkswagen-Spiess61 Dominic Chappell1\u20133Ralt RT334\u201317Hubbard RacingReynard 893Volkswagen-Spiess64 Pekka Herva14\u201315, 17Ralt RT33Opel91 Flurin Zegg4Zeus MotorsportReynard 883Volkswagen-Spiess66 Peter Sneller1\u20132, 4\u20138, 10\u201312, 15\u201317Petroglobe InternationalReynard 893Alfa Romeo67 Dana Brewer13Diamond RacingReynard 893Toyota70 C\u00e9sar Tiberio Jim\u00e9nez3Cram MotorsportRalt RT33Toyota71 Rob MearsAllJWD MotorsportRalt RT31Toyota83 Jack Dickenson4, 9Carlton TinglingReynard 883Volkswagen-Spiess85 Carlton Tingling15Race calendar and results[edit]^1 H\u00e4kkinen and Salo set identical fastest lap times and were subsequently both awarded an additional point.Championship Standings[edit]Points in brackets include dropped scores \u2013 only the best 14 of 17 scores count towards the championshipReferences[edit]External links[edit] "},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/1990-british-formula-three-championship\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"1990 British Formula Three Championship"}}]}]
