Jamie Caroline pictured at the Knockhill round. With ten victories, Caroline won the championship by 65.5 points ahead of his closest rival, Oscar Piastri.

The 2017 F4 British Championship was a multi-event, Formula 4 open-wheel single seater motor racing championship held across United Kingdom. The championship featured a mix of professional motor racing teams and privately funded drivers, competing in Formula 4 cars that conformed to the technical regulations for the championship. This, the third season, following on from the British Formula Ford Championship, was the third year that the cars conformed to the FIA's Formula 4 regulations.^[1] Part of the TOCA tour, it formed part of the extensive program of support categories built up around the BTCC centrepiece.

The season commenced on 1 April at Brands Hatch – on the circuit's Indy configuration – and concluded on 1 October at the same venue, using the Grand Prix circuit, after thirty races held at ten meetings, all in the support of the 2017 British Touring Car Championship.^[2] The championship featured Ford F4 Challenge Cup for the first time for the drivers with low budgets.^[3]^[4] The Challenge Cup Required competitors to enter 7 of the weekends of the championship, which had to include the rounds at Knockhill Racing Circuit and the finale at Brands Hatch.^[5]

The season was marred by an incident involving Billy Monger, who had both his lower legs amputated after crashing into Patrik Pasma during the third race at the Donington Park round.^[6]
