The championship features a mix of professional motor racing teams and privately funded drivers, competing in Formula 4 cars that conform to the technical regulations for the championship. This, the tenth season, following on from the British Formula Ford Championship, will be the tenth year that the cars conform to the FIA's Formula 4 regulations.

The season will commence on 27 April at Donington Park, utilising the National circuit, and will conclude on 6 October at Brands Hatch, utilising the Grand Prix circuit, after thirty races to be held at ten meetings, eight of ten meetings are in the support of the 2024 British Touring Car Championship.
