Manor made its name in junior formulae, bringing through a number of top young talents who would go on to race in Formula 1. In the F3 race at Spa-Francorchamps in 2005, Lewis Hamilton led home Adrian Sutil in an ASM one-two, with Manor's Lucas di Grassi third. Hamilton had raced for Manor during the previous season, while di Grassi went on to drive for Virgin Racing (the first name of Manor's F1 entry) in 2010.
