International F3000 1988
[UNDER CONSTRUCTION]
Roberto Moreno, with F1, IndyCar, F2 and F3000 experience, was the surprise winner of the 1988 title with the unfancied Bromley Motorsport squad. His yellow Reynard 88D, the car to have, resisted the late season title charges by Olivier Grouillard (GBDA) and Martin Donnelly (Eddie Jordan Racing). Donnelly only entered the second half of the season, taking an effective team leader role after Johnny Herbert suffered serious leg injuries in a horrific Brands Hatch pile-up. Pierluigi Martini was fourth for FIRST Racing, while Bertrand Gachot took fifth with Spirit TOM'S. Jean Alesi found his debut season with Oreca to be a major disappointment. The top eleven drivers would go on to race in F1, although Moreno and Martini had already done so briefly.
