Previous: None | Next: 2019 |
The 2018 FIA Formula 2 Championship was the first independent season of the FIA Formula 2 Championship, a motor racing championship for Formula 2 cars that is sanctioned by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). The independence campaign was set up by the FIA to "put F2 on the map for F1 fans looking for an alternative should the F1 races get boring." It was the first FIA Formula 2 season to feature new chassis and engine packages. Kyle Macleod leads the Drivers Championship by 22 points heading out of the summer break (the rest period between Hungary and Belgium.) Josh Beardmore comes 2nd and in 3rd place (4 points behind Beardmore) is fellow Brit: Lando Norris. In the Teams Championship, PREMA lead ART by 3 points with a spokes person from the FIA saying "The other teams need to step up their game if they want to win this year but all this close battling in the midfield is good for the sport."

Scoring system
Points were awarded to the top 10 classified finishers in the Feature race, and to the top 8 classified finishers in the Sprint race. The pole-sitter in the feature race also received four points, and two points were given to the driver who set the fastest lap inside the top ten in both the feature and sprint races. No extra points are awarded to the pole-sitter in the sprint race as the grid for the sprint race is based on the results of the feature race with the top eight drivers having their positions reversed.
