Formula B is the main feeder series to Formula A. It was briefly known as GP-B from 2005 to 2016. Many of Formula A's past and current drivers used this league as a means to making it to Formula A stardom. Some of these drivers include 4-time Formula A World champion Peter Short and 2 time World Champion Lucas Daniels. Several past champions have become team owners in this league such as Klaus Wendlinghoff and Patrick MacQuarrie.
