With his third victory of the season, Edoardo Mortara (Signature) extended his lead in the drivers' standings of the Formula 3 Euro Series. The Italian now has 16 points more than Marco Wittmann (Signature), who finished second in his home race at the 2.3 kilometres long Norisring in Nuremberg. Valtteri Bottas (ART Grand Prix) and Alexander Sims (ART Grand Prix) followed the Signature duo across the finish line.
Again in summery temperatures, Edoardo Mortara took the lead at the start from Valtteri Bottas and Marco Wittmann. Just before the end of the race, the clerk of the course sent out the safety car following a collision between Matias Laine (Motopark Academy), Daniel Juncadella (Prema Powerteam) and Nicolas Marroc (Prema Powerteam), in which the two Prema drivers collided.
At the restart, with four laps remaining, Mortara retained the lead while Wittmann overtook Bottas for second shortly after that. Behind Sims and Roberto Merhi (Mücke Motorsport), Carlos Muñoz (Mücke Motorsport) crossed the line in sixth place. Thus, the best-placed rookie of the race scored his first-ever championship points in the Euro Series.
