The 2022 Jeddah FIA Formula 2 round was a motor racing event held between 25 and 27 March 2022 at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit. It was the second round of the 2022 FIA Formula 2 Championship and was held in support of the 2022 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
The qualifying session was held on 25 March 2022. Felipe Drugovich took pole position, the second of his Formula 2 career. The qualifying session was marred by three red flags. The first red flag came out for Théo Pourchaire, whose car broke down. A second red flag was flown after Logan Sargeant crashed heavily at the exit of turn 17. Oddly, a third red flag was shown due to a technical error after GPS systems indicated that Frederik Vesti stopped on track, despite no such event occurring. [1] In addition, Cem Bölükbaşı crashed in practice and was taken to hospital for precautionary checks, and as a result missed qualifying. He was later withdrawn from the event. [2]
Jack Doohan was later disqualified from the final classification for failing to provide the minimum 0.8 kg fuel sample. [3] Jüri Vips, Olli Caldwell, and Frederik Vesti each received three-place grid penalties for impeding. Clément Novalak received a five-place grid penalty for what the race stewards deemed to be a "dangerous case of impeding." [4] Amaury Cordeel received a ten-place grid penalty for failing to slow for the red flag and double waved yellow flags. [5]
