2016 SMP F4 Championship season
Previous: 2015 Next: 2017

The 2016 SMP F4 Championship season will be the second season of the SMP F4 Championship. It will begin on 29 April at Sochi and will finish on 10 September at Ahvenisto after seven triple header rounds.[1]

This season will see the F4 debut of the Dutch team MP Motorsport, which will be joining Koiranen GP and SMP Racing in fielding cars and drivers. The season will also expand to the Netherlands, hosting some races as well as a parallel championship to the SMP F4 championship, called the Dutch F4 Trophy.

The series will be a FIA North-European Zone (NEZ) championship as in 2015. NEZ Council agreed in it's meeting in 20 March to allow KNAF licence holders to score points in the championship. The FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) had already accepted KNAF into the NEZ F4 championship earlier in 4 March. The exception is valid for 2016 season only, and only after NEZ receives full payment of membership fees. Dutch drivers aren't eligible to any other NEZ cups or championships.[2]
