British drivers James Winslow and Dillon Battistini have joined the new JA Motorsports team to compete this year’s Series in Dallara 304 model cars. Winslow finished third in the 2005 series whilst this will be first AF3 experience for Battistini.

JA Motorsports is a new team run by Adachi San, the engineer of 2005 champion Ananda Mikola. Winslow moves to JA Motorsports from Kinetic F3 whilst this will be first F3 experience for Dillon Battistini. The 28 year old driver has risen through the ranks from British Karting, spending 12 years in the category. He graduated to Formula 600 and sporadic races in Palmer Audi and Formula Renault. He is best known for his 2003 campaign in the ultra competitive Caterham R400 Championship, finishing second overall and winning the ‘Caterham Driver of the Year Award’.

Winslow comes fresh from a win, two seconds and a third in the Australian F3 support races. On paper this is one of the strongest combinations on the grid and the team will start as one of the favourites to take honours in the first event at Batangas on May 6/7th.
