2016 Formula STCC Nordic season

The 2016 Formula STCC Nordic^[1] season is the fourth season of the single seater championship that supports the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship. The series went previously under the name of Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic, but the name was changed after Renault Sport dropped its support for the 3.5 and 1.6 classes in late 2015. The season will begin on 30 April at Skövde Airport and will end on 24 September at Ring Knutstorp, after fourteen races held in seven venues. Most of these rounds are held in support of the 2016 Scandinavian Touring Car Championship, joint organiser of the series along with the FIA Northern European Zone Organisation.

The series uses all-carbon Signatech chassis and Michelin tyres.^[2]

Parallel to the main championship, two other championships are held: the Formula STCC Junior Svenskt Mästerskap (JSM) for drivers under 26 years old holding a Swedish driver license, and the Formula STCC Northern European Zone (NEZ) championship at selected rounds. Points to these championships are awarded using the same system, with the sole exception of pole position and fastest lap not awarding points.
