# 2024 Formula 4 Australian Championship

The 2024 Formula 4 Australian Championship was the sixth season of the Formula 4 Australian Championship and the first one since 2019. Top Speed was appointed as the new organizer and promoter as the series switched to the Tatuus F4-T421 car and the Abarth engine.
The series, similar to other Formula 4 series, was intended primarily as an opportunity for young drivers aspiring to a professional career in motor racing a way to compete in the first step out of karting on the FIA Global Pathway in Australia, without having to live in Europe as has been common for aspiring Australian drivers. However, unusually for Formula 4, the championship also had a masters category for older drivers.
