2023 Formula Regional Asian Championship

The 2023 Formula Regional Asian Championship will be a multi-event, Formula Regional open-wheel single seater motor racing championship. The championship will feature a mix of professional and amateur drivers, competing in Formula Regional cars. It will be the sixth season of the championship, and the second season under the Formula Regional moniker, after a rebrand happened due to the FIA ending the F3 category name.[1][2]

After the season was originally scheduled to be held in January and February of the year in the Middle East, this schedule then became the first season of the newly founded Formula Regional Middle East Championship.[3] The Asian championship is now scheduled to be held from October to December of 2023.[4]
