The 2014 Formula Renault 2.0 Northern European Cup represented the ninth iteration of this European single-seater championship aimed at rising talent. The series consisted of 7 events hosting a total of 15 races, reduced from an initial 17 after two contests were cancelled due to adverse weather conditions. The campaign commenced on 12 April at Monza and concluded on 20 September at the Nürburgring circuit.
British racer Ben Barnicoat, affiliated with McLaren's junior driver programme, clinched the championship by maintaining a steady record of top-ten finishes in all but two races, securing victories at Hockenheim and Most. He ended the season with a 16-point margin over second-placed Louis Delétraz, who won the opening round at Monza. The battle for third position was resolved by a tie-break between Seb Morris and Steijn Schothorst, with Morris prevailing due to his two wins at Silverstone and Assen, while Schothorst achieved a single victory at Spa.
Throughout the season, 11 distinct drivers claimed race wins. Besides Barnicoat and Morris, multiple victories were earned by Gustav Malja, who secured fifth in the overall standings, and Kevin Jörg, despite his participation being limited to only four events. Other race winners included full-season entrant Callan O'Keeffe and drivers Andrea Pizzitola, Levin Amweg, Alexander Albon, and Aurélien Panis, none of whom finished higher than O'Keeffe’s seventh place in the final classification. The teams’ title was captured by Josef Kaufmann Racing, propelled by contributions from Delétraz, Malja, Jörg, and Ryan Tveter.
