The Japanese Super Formula Championship is a formula racing series. It is considered as the top level of single-seater racing in Japan and regional major motorsports of Asia. The series is sanctioned by the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF) and managed by Japan Race Promotion (JRP). The first Japanese Top Formula championship was held in 1973 as the All-Japan Formula 2000 Championship. In 1978, the series transformed into the All-Japan Formula Two Championship, and again in 1987, into the All-Japan Formula 3000 Championship.

The JRP was established in 1995, and began managing the series in 1996, under its new name, the Formula Nippon Championship. The series’ name was changed again in 2013, to Super Formula. The 2022 Japanese Super Formula Championship is the fiftieth season of premier Japanese open-wheel motor racing, and the tenth under the moniker of Super Formula. It started in April 2022 and is due to be contested over ten rounds across seven race meetings. Tomoki Nojiri is the defending series champion.
