Points systems

[edit]

Points are awarded to the top 10 (Pro), top 8 (Pro-Am) or top 6 (Am, Teams) classified finishers. If less than 6 participants start the race or if less than 75% of the original race distance is completed, half points are awarded. For the Endurance Race (Spa, Monza) points are multiplied by 2. At the end of the season, the 2 lowest race scores are dropped; if the points dropped are those obtained in endurance races, that will count as 2 races; however, the dropped races cannot be the result of disqualification or race bans.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Tom Jackson withdrew from round 1, and Ameerh Naran competed solo for the event in Am Class
  2. ^ a b c Kizilov and Nesov are Russian, but they compete as neutral competitors as Russian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Petrov, also a Russian, competes under an Israeli license for the same reason.
  3. ^ Car No. 92 was on the initial entry list of round 1, but did not appear on the final entry list.
