The amalgamation of British and German series' paved the way for an immensely popular Formula BMW Europe championship in 2008, travelling the continent as part of the Formula One support package. International motorsport's most junior-of-junior categories more than held its own in the money-is-everything world of grand prix racing, providing perhaps the most entertaining racing across the entire bill.
Amid plenty of incidents, it was Esteban Gutiérrez who proved the quickest and most consistent to deliver the championship and with it, a top drive in the F3 Euroseries. See which budding star can follow in his footsteps throughout 2009 on Motors TV.
