French F4 Championship,[2] formerly known as Formula Renault Campus France, Formula Campus, Formul'Academy Euro Series, F4 Eurocup 1.6 is a form of open wheel racing founded in 1993 by Louis Drouet. It is based in France and aims at karting graduates, like Formula Ford, ADAC Formel Masters and Formula Abarth. The series currently organized in collaboration with the Fédération Française du Sport Automobile (FFSA), Auto Sport Academy and Total S.A.. The champion receives support to continue in one of the Formula Renault 2.0 championships.[2]
In 2010, the re-branded series was made part of the World Series by Renault, but was then dropped for 2011.[3]
The car
The car was originally built by Signatech. The chassis and survival cell had a carbon fibre composite monocoque construction. The car was designed to comply with the 2008 FIA F3 standards. The 1600cc Renault K4MRS engine produced about 140 hp. The transmission had five forward speeds with sequential shift mechanism.
For the 2018 season, the championship will adopt FIA Formula 4 regulations, with Mygale M14-F4 chassis and Renault 2.0L engines.
Kumho is the single tyre supplier for the French F4 Championship.[4]
