The 2021 FIA Formula 3 Asian Championship season was the second season of the Formula 3 Asian Championship, and contained the third and final race of the inaugural Formula 3 World Cup. It was run over a schedule of ten races, only two of which would act as Saturday support races to Formula One Grands Prix. This was a reduction from seven F1 support races in the inaugural season, and allowed for the season to be run in a more condensed block in the second half of the year.
