The 2010 Formula Renault 2.0 UK Championship marked the 22nd iteration of the British Formula Renault series. The season kicked off at Thruxton on 3 April and wrapped up on 10 October at Brands Hatch, featuring twenty rounds held throughout England and, for the first time since 2006, in Scotland as well. A significant update for this year was the introduction of a new-spec vehicle developed by Barazi-Epsilon, which replaced the long-standing Tatuus chassis that had been in use since 2000.

At just 16 years old, the Anglo-Swedish racer Tom Blomqvist driving for Fortec Motorsport became the youngest driver ever to claim the championship title. Although he secured only three consecutive wins at Silverstone National and Knockhill, Blomqvist’s remarkable consistency—finishing within the top seven in 19 out of 20 races—helped Fortec capture their third championship in four seasons. Finishing second was Lewis Williamson from Manor Competition, who ended the season 14 points behind but was closer when considering the championship’s rule that discards each driver's two lowest scores. Williamson achieved five victories; however, costly mistakes at Brands Hatch and Croft hindered his chance to win consecutive titles for Manor.

Late in the championship fight were Atech GP’s Tamás Pál Kiss and Manor teammate Will Stevens, but their poor performances at Brands Hatch dashed their hopes for the title. Pál Kiss started strongly with six podium finishes including three wins within the first seven races but eventually settled for third overall after adding only two more podiums later on. Stevens secured fourth place, trailing Pál Kiss by nine points, with triumphs at Thruxton and the Brands Hatch GP, completing every race of the season.

The highest-ranking driver from CRS Racing was Harry Tincknell, who finished fifth overall and claimed victories at Rockingham and Snetterton. Other race winners included Manor’s Ollie Millroy, Atech GP’s Nick Yelloly and Marlon Stöckinger, Fortec’s Riki Christodoulou—winner of the final race—and CRS Racing’s Robert Foster-Jones, who retired at age 20 following his victory at Knockhill. In subsidiary categories, Alex Lynn won the Graduate Cup ahead of Fabio Gamberini, while Manor Competition dominated the Entrants' Championship with a margin of 96 points.
