The F4 Spanish Championship (Spanish: Campeonato de España de Fórmula 4) is an FIA Formula 4 racing series. The championship was planned to launch in 2015, though the inaugural season was cancelled and delayed until 2016. Koiranen GP was the promoter of the championship for the first two seasons. The current promoter is Agrupación Deportiva F4 Spain.

History

Gerhard Berger and the FIA Singleseater Commission launched the FIA Formula 4 in March 2013. The goal of the Formula 4 is to make the ladder to Formula 1 more transparent. Besides sporting and technical regulations, costs are regulated too. A car to compete in this category may not exceed €30.000 in purchase. A single season in Formula 4 may not exceed €100.000 in costs. The Spanish F4 will be one of the second phase Formula 4 championship to be launched. The first phase championships was the Italian F4 Championship and the Formula 4 Sudamericana which started in 2014. The Spanish championship was launched by the RFEDA on 14 November 2014. French race car constructor Mygale was contracted to design and build all the cars. Ultimately the whole idea was abandoned.

With the announcement that Koiranen as the promoter of the championship, the Spanish F4 championship started in 2016. Due to this partnership, the championship made use of Tatuus cars, Abarth turbocharged engines and Hankook tyres, employing the same technical regulations as the SMP F4 Championship, which Koiranen also promoted.

Car

The championship features Tatuus designed and built cars. The cars are constructed out of carbon fibre and feature a monocoque chassis. From 2016 season to 2021, the series used model F4-T014. From the 2022 onwards, the series has used Tatuus F4-T421. The engine is a 1.4L turbo Abarth.
