2017 F4 British Championship


The 2017 F4 British Championship is a multi-event, Formula 4 open-wheel single seater motor racing championship held across United Kingdom. The championship features a mix of professional motor racing teams and privately funded drivers, competing in Formula 4 cars that conform to the technical regulations for the championship. This, the third season, following on from the British Formula Ford Championship, will be the third year that the cars conform to the FIA's Formula 4 regulations. Part of the tour, it forms part of the extensive program of support categories built up around the BTCC centrepiece.

The season will commence on 1 April at Brands Hatch – on the circuit's Indy configuration – and will conclude on 1 October at the same venue, utilising the Grand Prix circuit, after thirty races to be held at ten meetings, all in support of the 2017 British Touring Car Championship. The championship will feature Ford F4 Challenge Cup for the first time for the drivers with low budgets. The Challenge Cup Requires competitors to enter 7 of the weekends of the championship, which must include the rounds at Knockhill Racing Circuit and the finale at Brands Hatch.

All teams are British-registered.

The calendar was announced on 16 June 2016.
