F3 Asian Championship After his performance in the Asian Formula Renault series, BlackArts Racing kept Alders to race in the F3 Asian Championship. On the 13 December 2019, the season kicked off at Sepang International Circuit where Alders won two of the three rounds. Alders would go on to win three more races and get a total of 11 podiums. In the final rounds, three drivers could still win the title, with those being Jack Doohan, Nikita Mazepin and Alders. On the first race of the final round in Thailand, Doohan was leading the race ahead of Alders until a late puncture caused Doohan to limp to the end and finished eighth where Alders inherited the win. Alders won the championship with 266 points.
