(Redirected from 2022 ACCR Formula 4 Championship)

The 2022 ACCR Formula 4 Trophy was a motor racing series held in the Central and Eastern Europe, competed over four rounds. The full six rounds schedule was supposed to be the first season of the ACCR Formula 4 Championship organized by the Automobile Club of the Czech Republic (ACCR; Czech: Autoklub České republiky (AČR)). The season was supposed to start with its first round taking place at the Hungaroring in April and with the final round taking place at Brno Circuit in September.[1] After many calendar changes caused by massive delivery delays, it was announced on 6 July that the start of the championship as an FIA Formula 4 Championship would be postponed to 2023 and that only the last three original rounds would be held as a trophy series.[2] The series uses Tatuus F4-T-421 chassis primarily, although Tatuus F4-T014 was eligible for the Trophy class.[3]
