2025 Euroformula Open Championship

The 2025 Euroformula Open Championship is a multi-event open-wheel single-seater motor racing championship held across Europe. It is the twelfth season using the Euroformula Open name. The season will be held over eight rounds with three races each.[1] It began on April 26 at Algarve International Circuit, and will conclude on 19 October at Autodromo Nazionale di Monza.

The season was the first using the Dallara 324 chassis, as well as a spec Toyota engine.[2] This change, aimed at reducing costs, aligned the championship's technical specification with that of the Super Formula Lights.[3]
