2027 Formula Regional Middle East Trophy

The 2027 Formula Regional Middle East Trophy is a scheduled multi-event Formula Regional open-wheel single seater motor racing championship. The championship will feature a mix of professional and amateur drivers, competing in Formula Regional cars. 2027 will be the second season under the Trophy guise after the FIA introduced a new concept for single-seater championships held over shorter, constrained timeframes.[1]

The championship will be held over four rounds in January and February of 2027.

Teams and drivers

All drivers will compete using a Tatuus T-326 chassis powered by a 1.6 litre, 3-cylinder Toyota engine running on Pirelli tires.[2]

The 2027 calendar was officially announced on 13 July 2026.[3] The championship will visit the same locations as it did in 2026.
