The 1968 European Formula Two Championship was contested over nine rounds. Jean Pierre Beltoise won the championship in Pergusa-Enna. Although Jochen Rindt won 5 races, he was a graded driver and was therefore not allowed to score championship points.[1]
In this season, Jim Clark died at Hockenheimring, first race of the year.

Calendar
Note:
Race 1, 5 and 9 were held in two heats, with results shown in aggregate.
Race 2, 4 and 6 were held with two semi-final heats and the final run, with time only shown for the final.
Race 2, 4, 5 and 7 was won by a graded driver, all graded drivers are shown in Italics.
Race 1 (heat 1) Jim Clark was fatally injured.
Final point standings
For every race points were awarded: 9 points to the winner, 6 for runner-up, 4 for third place, 3 for fourth place, 2 for fifth place and 1 for sixth place. No additional points were awarded. The best 7 results count[2] (some sources count the best 6 results). No drivers scored in more than 7 races and just one scored in more than 6. If the best 6 scores are taken Henri Pescarolo would drop his 1 point score, dropping his total to 30.
Note:
Only drivers which were not graded were able to score points.
At Crystal Palace not all points were awarded as there were not enough finishers.
Non-Championship race results
Other Formula Two races, which did not count towards the European Championship, also held in 1968.
