Formula Regional Middle East Trophy

Formula Regional Middle East Trophy

The Formula Regional Middle East Trophy (FRME) is an FIA‑certified single‑seater series that sits between Formula 4 and FIA Formula 3 on the junior racing ladder. It is an important step for young drivers looking to gain experience in high‑level, international competition.

The championship is held in the Middle East during the winter months, with races on well‑known circuits such as Yas Marina Circuit, Dubai Autodrome and Kuwait Motor Town. Its early‑season timing makes it an ideal platform for drivers and teams preparing for their main campaigns later in the year.
