Formula racing is any of several forms of open-wheeled single-seater motorsport road racing.
The origin of the term lies in the nomenclature that was adopted by the FIA for all of its post-World War II single-seater regulations, or formula E.
The best known of these formula are
Formula One,
Formula Two,
Formula Three and
Formula Four.
Common usage of "formula racing" encompasses other single-seater series, including the GP2 Series, which replaced Formula 3000
(which had itself been the effective replacement for Formula Two).
Categories such as Formula Three and FIA Formula 2 Championship are described as feeder formulae, which refers to their position below Formula One on the career ladder of single-seater motor racing.
There are two primary forms of racing formula: the open formula that allows a choice of chassis or engines and the control or "spec" formula that relies on a single supplier for chassis and engines.
Formula Three is an example of an open formula, while Formula BMW is a control formula.
There are also some exceptions on these two forms like Formula Ford where there is an open chassis formula but a restricted single brand engine formula.
