Besides sporting and technical regulations, costs are also regulated. A car to compete in this category may not exceed €30,000 and a single season in Formula 4 may not exceed €100,000.
The 2019 F4 Argentina Championship season was originally slated to begin at Buenos Aires in July and conclude at the same circuit on December 1.[2] The start of the season was postponed to October 18-19, then delayed again before being completely cancelled.[3][4] The new Argentinian Formula 4 Championship has had its first season delayed once again, with a start date planned for 2020, however the season was cancelled due to COVID-19 pandemic. The series started in 2021.[5]
