league. The racing is the same, because of the drivers.
However, it's significantly easier to acchieve consistent competitive times
in F3, so the field tends to spread less, even at the more "technical"
tracks.
I also agree an F3 is equally hard to drive than an F1. F1 is less
forgiving, but there's that sumptious power to correct/make up for slight
errors. F3 is slightly easier but you need to be on or very near the limit
all the time to be competive.
