Formula Regional at Phillip Island

By Thomas Miles

Date posted: 20 December 2024

The first Formula Regional Australia season will be held over six rounds at a variety of circuits in 2025.

The maiden season will see the new category featuring Tatuus T-318 Formula Regional cars powered by Toyota and Alfa Romeo from New Zealand race in Australia at a variety of events promoted by the new Motorsport Australia Trophy Tour, Victorian State Series, SRO and Australian Racing Group.

The first round will be held at Phillip Island in May before taking on the recently revamped One Raceway in Goulburn a month later.

Formula Regional Australia then races on the SRO Australia platform at Sandown before heading to an Australian Racing Group event at Winton.

The penultimate round of the year will take place at the modern Bend Motorsport Park in late September.

The sixth and final round is yet to be announced, but the Formula Regional Australia press release stated it is “promised to be an exciting way to end its inaugural year.”

“We’re really excited to finally get our calendar out to the public with a great mixture of events and provides our drivers with a diverse array of tracks,” said promoter Tim Macrow.

“The overall package is coming together nicely, with the cars, television and event formats, so it’s full steam ahead into 2025.”

The cars seen in Formula Regional Australia are the same that will take part in the upcoming Castrol Toyota Formula Regional Oceania Championship in New Zealand.

Fans can watch the six rounds across a mixture of online live streaming, free-to-air and subscription TV.
