The FIA Formula 2 Championship is a second-tier single-seater championship organised by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA). Held on racing circuits, the championship was introduced in 2017, following the rebranding of the long-term Formula One feeder GP2 Series. The series' original founders were Flavio Briatore and current managing director Bruno Michel.
Under FIA rules, the reigning Formula 2 champion is not permitted to remain in the series for the following season.
Links to F1[]
The Formula 2 series has intentionally been allowed to influence Formula One since its creation, with the majority of F1 drivers competing in the upcoming 2018 season having spent time in the junior category. However, there have been links beyond that of future drivers, with sponsors, teams and suppliers shared between the two series in both past and present.

Personnel[]
Manufacturers[]
Although manufacturer involvement in terms of construction is forbidden, there is a significant amount of cross-over between F2 and Formula One in terms of suppliers. The two prime examples of this are the two Italian firms Dallara and Pirelli, the former a chassis designer and constructor, and the latter a tyre supplier.
Venues[]
Formula 2 serves as one of the main support series for Formula One throughout the latter's European tour, as well as choice rounds around the world. As such the entire F2 calendar is dictated by the F1 calendar, although the series frequently holds a single race away from F1 each season.
