Judice to return in Rio.
Brazilian single-seater hopeful Ernani Judice has revealed that he will be competing in the next two rounds of the South American [SudAm] Formula Three series, after accepting an invitation from team owner Darcio dos Santos.
dos Santos is Rubens Barrichello's uncle and owns the front running Prop Car team, which runs regularly in both the Brazilian and SudAm series. Judice has been out of a front-running drive since his sponsorship to continue with the Promatecme UK team in the British F3 series ran dry last season.

"It's a good opportunity to practice and Darcio wants me to help developing the car," the former UK Scholarship Class frontrunner explained, "Although the SudAm series uses last year's cars with different dampers and Pirelli tyres, the bases are the same [as in the UK], so I should be okay."
The race meeting is composed by two qualifying sessions for two races, similar to the British event and will take part at Rio de Janeiro on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th October.
