Formula Palmer Audi has proved itself over the last 10 years to be one of the premier training grounds for aspiring Formula 1 drivers. Nine FPA graduates have progressed to Formula 1, with many more racing in premier international championships such as Champ Cars, DTM, Japanese Super GT, British Touring Cars, LMES and World Touring Cars.

All cars in the championship are owned, prepared and run by the FPA team, which is based in 30,000sq ft workshops at its own test track, Bedford Autodrome. Every car is prepared to the same standard by a team of highly experienced engineers, ensuring absolute equality of equipment for all drivers and providing the unique "level playing field" that has provided the springboard for so many talented drivers.
