During its run, it claimed championship titles for Esteban Gutiérrez in 2010, Valtteri Bottas in 2011 and finally Mitch Evans in 2012 with ART Grand Prix winning the teams title on all accounts. It also helped 9 drivers successfully graduate into the GP2 parent series. Both Gutiérrez and Bottas made their F1 debuts in the 2013 Formula 1 season with Sauber and Williams respectively.
Each team was allowed to run three separate GP3/10's, and with a total of ten different teams and thirty cars on the grid, it was one of the largest grids in motor-sport making it a rather unstable class of racing. With the chassis to be taken over by the GP3/13 in 2013, the number of cars on track was limited to twenty seven.[2]
