# 2013 Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic season

The 2013 Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic season was the inaugural season of the Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic, a series running 1600cc Formula Renault machinery in similar fashion to the French F4 Championship. The series began on 3 May at Ring Knutstorp and ended on 21 September at Mantorp Park, after fifteen races held in seven venues. Most of these rounds were held in support of the 2013 Scandinavian Touring Car Championship season, joint organiser of the series along with the FIA Northern European Zone Organisation.
The series uses all-carbon Signatech chassis, 1.6-litre 140bhp Renault K4MRS engines, and Dunlop tyres.
