The 2020 Mugello FIA Formula 3 round was a motor racing event held on 12 and 13 September 2020 at the Mugello Circuit in Tuscany, Italy. It was the final round of the 2020 FIA Formula 3 Championship, and ran in support of the 2020 Tuscan Grand Prix.^[1] Oscar Piastri would be crowned champion after Logan Sargeant collided with Lirim Zendeli in Race 2, and Theo Pourchaire failed to outscore him.

With Pierre-Louis Chovet returning to Formula Regional, Hitech Grand Prix tried to sign Igor Fraga to race for them in the final round.^[2] However, Fraga's team Charouz Racing System blocked the move, and both teams raced with only two cars that weekend, those of Liam Lawson and Dennis Hauger, and Michael Belov and Roman Staněk respectively.^[3]

The Qualifying session took place on 11 September 2020, with Lirim Zendeli achieving his second pole position of the year.
