UK (and world?) FF replacement ........

The new UK variant of FIA Formula 4 will use Mygale chassis when it replaces British Formula Ford next season under the name MSA Formula.



Mygale has been the main chassis provider for British FFord for several seasons and its carbon-composite monocoque FIA F4 chassis will be used from 2015 as the series adopts the world governing body's blueprint for a universal junior formula.



The Motor Sports Association-backed category, which replaces British FFord on the BTCC support bill will use Hankook (slick) tyres instead of continuing with FFord supplier (threaded) Dunlop.



It means the cars will run on the same compound and construction rubber as the FIA-sanctioned Formula 3 European Championship.



Ford's detuned 160bhp EcoBoost engines, reduced in power by 40bhp to fit FIA F4's power-to-weight ratio, will be prepared and supplied solely by Sodemo and be available on a season's lease for £4800/$7,461.60.



The chassis, which includes a six-speed sequential gearbox, paddleshift steering wheel and data-logging system will cost £30,400/$47,256.80.
