Formula Acceleration 1 (FA1) was a single make, open wheel auto racing series.
It was unusual in its field in that competitors solely represented their nation as opposed to themselves or a team, the usual format in most formula racing series.
FA1 was created in 2014 as the signature category in the Acceleration 2014 series of motorsport festivals.
On 22 December 2014, it was announced that the series would be merged with Auto GP in 2015.
All cars are mechanically identical and have been built with reducing costs in mind, which has led to an approximate price for the whole season of €450,000.
