Formula Renault 2.0 Alps was a category of Formula Renault open-wheel racing, created by the merging of the Formula Renault 2.0 Middle European Championship (formerly known as Formula Renault 2.0 Switzerland) and Formula Renault 2.0 Italia.

Overview

With circuit racing forbidden in Switzerland, the championship is held in bordering countries like France (Dijon, Magny-Cours, Pau), Germany (Hockenheim), Italy (Imola, Monza, Mugello, Misano) and Austria (Salzburg, Red Bull Ring).
However, in recent years the championship has visited farther countries like Belgium (Spa-Francorchamps) and Spain (Jerez, Barcelona).

The cars use Tatuus chassis and the 2.0 L Renault Clio engines like other Formula Renault 2.0 series. Michelin is the tyres supplier.
