Mars Hsieh has signed with Castrol Team Goddard-Minardi Team Asia to compete the Beijing and Sentul rounds of the Asian Formula Three Series, replacing Tyson Sy who has other duties driving for the team in Formula BMW Asia.
Rounds 7 & 8 of the Asian Formula Three Series had been scheduled to be part of the Asian Festival of Speed event at Shanghai on October 24th. However the cancellation of that event has resulted in the venue change to Sentul Circuit.
