Cougnaud had some difficulties with the set-up of his car at the beginning of the season, especially in bad weather conditions and he also incurred several penalties, like at Silverstone, where he finished fifth in the second race but got a 30-second penalty after the race, so fifth place was for Stern.[5]

He had a good result at Jerez where he finished fourth in the first race, and third in the second one.

At Monza, in October, he did his best performance of the season in the second race : pole position, P2 and fastest lap. He could not resist to his teammate Sandy Stuvik in the last lap.[6]

Cougnaud had a great finish of the season at Barcelona finishing in third position for the first race and winning the second one (his first victory in Formula 3).[7]
