2022 Formula Nordic

The 2022 Formula Nordic season was the tenth season of the Swedish-based single-seater championship, and the fourth independent of the STCC branding, following the STCC promoter's bankruptcy in 2018.[1][2] The series continued to use the previous Formula Renault 1.6 chassis and engines, with Yokohama as the series' tyre supplier.[3]

The season began on 13 May at Anderstorp Raceway, and concluded on 1 October at Mantorp Park after 15 races held over seven rounds.[4] Philip Victorsson won the championship in his third season in the series, taking nine wins.[5]
