Race calendar and results
An updated race calendar was released on 1 June 2016, which cancelled the round at Kuala Lumpur City Grand Prix.[4] An updated race calendar was released on 28 June 2016, which cancelled the round at Penbay International Circuit.[2] After the previously scheduled second round in support of the Sepang 1000 km was cancelled, a new revised calendar was released by Formula 4 SEA through their Facebook website, which expanded the calendar to 36 races to be held until January 2017 and added rounds in both the Philippines and Indonesia.[3] The Clark International Speedway round initially consisted of six-races. However, due to Typhoon Sarika, the final race was abandoned. For the Chang International Circuit, an additional race was run as a compromise.
