Luke Browning returns to Super Formula action this weekend, as the 2026 season continues with Round 3 at Autopolis in Hita.
The Atlassian Williams F1 Team Reserve Driver heads into the weekend off the back of an encouraging opening double-header at Motegi, where he showed both resilience and his potential on debut.
After a challenging first race in difficult conditions, Luke bounced back in style on Sunday, charging from P21 to P4 with a bold strategy and impressive tyre management – arguably the standout drive of the weekend.

That performance leaves the 24-year-old Brit firmly in the mix as he continues to build experience in one of the most competitive single-seater categories outside of Formula 1.
Autopolis presents a very different test to Motegi, with its flowing layout and elevation changes demanding precision and consistency from drivers across the lap.
With a full race weekend format in place, action begins with Free Practice 1 and Qualifying on Saturday, before Free Practice 2 and the race take place on Sunday.
