TheDallara F308 was built in 2008. It was used in different Formula Three racing categories and competitions between 2008 and 2011. It was later replaced and succeeded by theF312, in 2012.[14][15]
The F308 can be upgraded to either theF309, theF310, or theF311, through Dallara's annual add-on kits. These include modifications in the area of aerodynamics such as additional air deflectors or similar or improved suspension units.[16]
The F308 is a conventional Formula 3 racing car with a carbon fiber reinforced plastic monocoque, load-bearingmid-engined, and free-standing wheels. The Hewland FTR and the Pankl DGB03 gearbox are homologated for the car. It is shifted manually by means of ignition interruption and shift lever on the right side without the clutch. The front and rear wing elements, the front, and rear crash boxes, and the wheel carriers are also homologated. The bodywork can be done by the teams themselves. For example, the chimneys on the sidepods were removed from all teams in the Euroseries and the sidepods were laminated shut.[16][17][18]

TheDallara F312 proved to be one of the most popular Formula 3 Chassis ever, with over 53 of the original type having been produced.[20] Even after its successor theDallara F317 was introduced, the F312 remained widely used, in championships such as theEuroformula Open Championship and theJapanese Formula 3 Championship.
The Dallara F312 was designed to meet the new for 2012 FIA Formula 3 regulations, which were much more restrictive compared to previous Formula 3 regulations, and led to reduced downforce levels.[21] Compared to the previous generation Dallara F308, the 312 features a higher monocoque and a lower nose-section than the outgoing model, with the front dampers and springs being placed inside the tub, a first for a Dallara F3 car, alongside a revised aerodynamic package. The car was unveiled at theMasters of Formula 3 event on the 20th of October 2011 atCircuit Zandvoort, in the Netherlands.[22]

TheDallara F317 is the thirty-seventh car used by the FIA-sanctionedFormula Three championships. Although the F317 is only an aero-upgraded F312 chassis, it works as a replacement for the aging Dallara F312 chassis.[24] However, some series like theEuroformula Open Championship opted for a slightly upgraded F312 chassis instead of the F317 package to keep costs low.
