2002 British Formula Three Championship

Automobile racing competition in United Kingdom in 2002

The 2002 British Formula Three season was the 52nd British Formula Three Championship season. It commenced on 31st March and ended on 22 September, after twenty-six races.

The scoring system was 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1 points awarded to the first ten finishers, with one extra point added to the driver who set the fastest lap of the race. All results counted towards the driver's final tally.

Similarly, if a Class B driver set the fastest lap of the race, they did not receive the extra point for the main championship; the extra point was awarded to the driver in the main class who set the fastest lap.
