The 2021 Jeddah Formula 2 round was the penultimate race of the 2021 Formula 2 Championship and occurred at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit from 3 to 5 December. It was run in support of the 2021 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and featured three races. The feature race was marred by the crash between Théo Pourchaire and Enzo Fittipaldi where both were hospitalised.
However, Prema Racing sealed the Teams' Championship after their drivers Oscar Piastri and Robert Shwartzman secured a double win in the Feature Race, making them the first double teams' champion in Formula 2 history.
