Four drivers are split by just 15 points in the battle for the Australian Drivers Championship after three rounds following debut wins for James Winslow (# 27 Team Opes Prime Dallara Mugen-Honda) and Leanne Tander (# 42 Fleetcare TanderSport Dallara Spiess Opel) today.

The pair became the fourth and fifth different winners in a season just six races old – the first time since 2005 that more than four divers have won in the first six events.

Winslow completed a remarkable comeback from a horrific start to the season by winning race one today in crushing fashion whilst Tander drove the race of her career to hold off the pack in race two to secure her first F3 win and the first for a female driver in the 51 year history of the Australian Drivers Championship.
