The '''2019 Formula Nordic''' season was the seventh season of the single-seater championship, and the first without the [[Scandinavian Touring Car Championship|STCC]] branding following the series' promoter's bankruptcy.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.touringcartimes.com/2019/02/06/stcc-ab-declare-bankruptcy-new-body-run-swedish-series/|title=STCC AB declare bankruptcy, new body to run Swedish series|date=6 February 2019|website=Touring Car Times|access-date=11 February 2021}}</ref> Instead, the series formed its own association, relaunching under the Formula Nordic brand but continuing to use the previous Formula Renault 1.6 chassis and engines, as it used to go under the name of [[2015 Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic season|Formula Renault 1.6 Nordic]] before Renault Sport dropped its support for the 3.5 and 1.6 classes in late 2015. 
The season began on 3 May at [[Ring Knutstorp]] and concluded on 5 October at [[Mantorp Park]] after eight rounds, Edward Sander Woldseth took the main (NEZ) title, with Viktor Andersson winning the junior (JSM) crown.<ref name="Main">{{cite web|url=https://www.formulanordic.se/arkiv/arkiv2019/|title=Archive - Formula Nordic 2019|publisher=Formula Nordic|language=sv|access-date=11 February 2021}}</ref><ref name="fscout">{{cite web|url=https://formulascout.com/2019-formula-renault-season-review/57769|title=2019 Formula Renault season review|last=Wood|first=Elliot|date=23 December 2019|website=Formula Scout|language=en|access-date=11 February 2021}}</ref>
