The 2022 Macau Grand Prix was a motor race for Formula 4 (F4) cars held on the streets of Macau on 20 November 2022. Just like in 2020 and 2021, the race was an F4 event (rather than Formula Three), and was part of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA)-administered China Formula 4 Championship for the third time running. The event consisted of two races; an eight-lap qualifying race deciding the starting grid for the twelve-lap main event. The 2022 race was the 69th running of the Macau Grand Prix, the third for F4 cars and the third meeting of the four-round 2022 F4 Chinese Championship.
