Series News

  • On 6 December 2023 it was announced that the championship would reintroduce internal combustion cars to compete in the highest class in the championship together with the electric RX1e cars that had been introduced in 2022, on the basis of the combustion vehicles being sustainably fueled.[2][5] Internal combustion vehicles had been absent from the championship since they were retired after the 2021 season.[6] A maximum of 16 full time entries will be allowed to take part in the season.[7]
  • The weekend format was adjusted for the 2024 season. SuperPole was replaced by pre-determined starting positions in all heats. The time-based format for the heats was scrapped in favor of races for position, and championship points will be awarded for every heat race, semi-final, and final.[7]
