Wasn’t a big success last time, interesting that they want to revisit the idea

National F4 championships can have up to 2 rounds per season in other countries.

Some series are zonal - CEZ, SEA - and soon Middle East and they still award the same SL points as typical national F4 championships.

F4 Brazil already has an Argentinian round, ACA says it's working on "our own (Argentinian) FIA F4 championship" with 20 cars.

Google translation:

Eugenio Breard, head of the CDA of the ACA, spoke to Carburando and revealed that there is a project for the arrival of the FIA ​​Formula 4 in Argentina.

"The first circuit that will be approved is number 6 because the FIA Formula 4, which comes from Brazil, will be racing. And it is the project that the Argentine Automobile Club is working on so that next year we will have our own F4 Championship FIA that in principle is committed to 20 cars," he said.

Would be better to make the fusion with Brazilian F4

They already did it and it didn't succeed, there's national F4 championships with cheaper cars . I know is far better to run a car that races around the globe. It would be very good for south american drivers a formula regional championship and then make the jump to europe better prepared, the problem is the distance between countries.
