Race calendar and results

A provisional calendar for the 2016 season was released on 10 December 2015.[1] The 7 rounds of the 2016 Super-Formula Championship were held over 7 months from April through October, with a 7 week long summer hiatus through June to mid-July. All events were held on premier, natural terrain road racing circuits in Japan. Thus far, no events on the Super Formula calendar have been held on super-speedway ovals or on city street circuits.

The Autopolis round was cancelled on May 29 due to damage caused by the Kumamoto earthquake.[7] However, on July 15, it was decided that Okayama would take its place at the same date, holding a double-header round.[8]
