Overview

With circuit racing forbidden in Switzerland, the championship is held in bordering countries like France (Dijon, Magny-Cours, Pau), Germany (Hockenheim), Italy (Imola, Monza, Mugello, Misano) and Austria (Salzburg, Red Bull Ring).
However, in recent years the championship has visited farther countries like Belgium (Spa-Francorchamps) and Spain (Jerez, Barcelona).

The cars use Tatuus chassis and the 2.0 L Renault Clio engines like other Formula Renault 2.0 series. Michelin is the tyres supplier.
