1999 International Formula 3000 Championship
The 1999 International Formula 3000 season was the thirty-third season of the second-tier of Formula One feeder championship and also fifteenth season under the International Formula 3000 Championship moniker which was an FIA sanctioned motor racing title for drivers of Formula 3000 racing cars. The title was contested over a ten-round series from 1 May to 25 September 1999.[1] This was the first F3000 season in which every International Championship race took place during a Formula One weekend and supported the Grand Prix itself.
21 teams entered the championship. For 2000, the FIA imposed an upper limit of 15 teams of 2 cars each, with one of the places reserved for the winning team of the 1999 Italian Formula 3000 Championship; therefore, 7 bottom-ranked teams would not have been eligible to advance to the next year, which increased the competition.[2] Portman-Arrows team collapsed midway through the championship, and Arden's Marc Goossens was disqualified in Hungary due to illegal changes in suspension, which denied Arden its first and the only points in the championship, causing a controversy.
