1994 British Formula Two Championship

The 1994 British Formula Two Championship was the sixth season of the British Formula 3000 Championship. José Luis Di Palma won the championship, driving a Reynard 92D for Madgwick International. Both the Argentinian and series runner-up Phil Andrews (Apache Racing) won two rounds apiece. However, the grids were weak and British F2 was in decline. International F3000 drivers Gareth Rees and Christian Pescatori both won one-off races with Durango, at Snetterton and Donington respectively. Future Indy Lights star Philipp Peter also had a single race with the Italian team. Rees' future team-mate Stephen Watson made a single appearance in the series. The Moosehead Grand Prix at Halifax, Canada, a non-championship F3000 race in 1993, counted as a British F2 round in 1994 and was won by the Italian-Mexican Gianfranco Cané, driving for Fred Goddard Racing.[1]
