[39] DAMS racer Roy Nissany became the third driver of 2022 to receive a race suspension for incurring 12 penalty points and was excluded from the thirteenth round at Monza.

[44] A fourteen-round calendar was announced on 15 October 2021: The championship returned to a two-race format for its race weekends, after coming under criticism during the 2021 season that the gaps between the rounds were far too large.

[52] The season began at the Bahrain International Circuit, where Jack Doohan set the fastest time in qualifying to take pole position for the feature race.

Felipe Drugovich took feature race pole position at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, whilst an engine failure for championship leader Pourchaire caused him to qualify 21st.

Pole-sitter Vips dropped to fourth place at the start of the feature race whilst Roy Nissany passed five cars to take the lead at the first corner.

Felipe Drugovich was the final car to make a pit stop on the penultimate lap, allowing Pourchaire into the lead to take his second victory of the season.

Felipe Drugovich took the lead at the first corner and maintained this position for the rest of the race, holding off Ayumu Iwasa and Logan Sargeant at the safety car restart which was caused by Jüri Vips spinning into the gravel.

Second-placed Théo Pourchaire closely followed pole-sitter Drugovich for much of the race, with the two drivers building a seven-second gap to third-placed Jüri Vips by the end.

Daruvala built a gap and held his position for much of the race, until his advantage was reduced by the first of three late-race safety cars after teammate Dennis Hauger crashed.

A multi-car collision at the first turn then eliminated Ralph Boschung, Calan Williams, Cem Bölükbaşı and Marino Sato from the race, which ended under yellow-flag conditions.

Pole-sitter Sargeant held his lead at the restart and for the rest of the race to take his first Formula 2 victory, followed by Théo Pourchaire and Liam Lawson.

As the championship arrived at the Red Bull Ring, Frederik Vesti claimed his maiden pole position, with Marcus Armstrong starting the sprint race from the front.

Verschoor crossed the line first, and Merhi overtook Daruvala on the penultimate lap to finish second, but was demoted to fifth by a time penalty for track limits violations.

Felipe Drugovich remained in the lead of the drivers' championship after the ninth round with a 39-point advantage over Pourchaire, who had reclaimed second place after Sargeant's retirement.

The sprint race was largely processional, with the biggest overtake happening right at the start when Marcus Armstrong overtook reverse grid poleman Novalak.

[57] Additionally, Juan Manuel Correa returned to Formula 2 with Van Amersfoort Racing, competing in the series for the first time since his accident in 2019.

The 2022 FIA Formula 2 Teams' Championship had yet to be decided ahead of the final race of the season, with MP Motorsport, ART Grand Prix, and Carlin in contention for the title.

Both MP Motorsport and ART Grand Prix were level on points, with the Dutch team ahead on countback due to having a greater number of race wins.

[61] Ayumu Iwasa won the feature race from pole position after battling Felipe Drugovich, whose second-place finish secured MP Motorsport the 2022 Teams' Championship.

Jack Doohan was forced to retire from the race after his front left tyre detached following a late pit stop, resulting in him dropping to sixth in the drivers' standings.
