Summary

Leonardo Fornaroli qualified in first place at Albert Park Circuit ahead of Gabriele Minì and Dino Beganovic. Laurens van Hoepen started the sprint race from the front, and he and Martinius Stenshorne exchanged the lead multiple times in the early laps. Stenshorne ultimately held the position and then kept Arvid Lindblad behind, who had progressed to second place from fifth at the start. Stenshorne's victory was his first FIA Formula 3 podium finish.

Feature race pole-sitter Fornaroli led at the start and through the first restart after the safety car was deployed to recover Tommy Smith and Joseph Loake's collided cars. Beganovic overtook Fornaroli for the lead on lap 14. Minì had lost third place to Luke Browning but recovered the podium place on the penultimate lap. Beganovic's victory was his first in the category, and promoted him to fourth place in the Drivers' Championship. At the end of the round, Browning and Fornaroli were tied on points at the top of the championship – with Browning ahead by virtue of having won a race – both five points ahead of Minì.
