History

WSK Promotions, well known for its kart races in the WSK Euro Series e.a., is promoting the Championship.[1]

Cars

Italian race car constructor Tatuus is contracted to design and build all the cars.[2] Tatuus had also built all the cars for the Formula Abarth. The chassis is a monocoque made of carbon fibre.

The engine is a 1400cc Fiat-FPT.[3] This is the same engine used in the Formula Abarth between 2010 and 2013. It is detuned to fit the FIA Formula 4 regulations to 160 hp (120 kW), down from the original 180 hp (130 kW).
