Calendar changes

The Sloverti Grand Prix was originally included on the calendar, but was cancelled due to the recent political unrest in the country following Rupert Wilmar's reelection.

Summary

Opening rounds

The season began at the Aswickan Grand Prix. Conway Prescott, who took pole position, led from the start for the first few laps before getting passed by his teammate Steven Grey in the 1st quarter. But Prescott soon retook the lead and won the race for MacGregor, finishing with a dominant 30-second lead over Merlin's Gianpiero Santoro. On the other hand, Grey was just over 2 seconds behind Santoro and finished 3rd. MacGregor built up an early lead, garnering a total of 44 points.

The Mizia Grand Prix was marked with moderate to heavy rain, which proved challenging for the drivers. Despite this, Valkean drivers Simo Rassinen, driving for Sidus, and Pekka Koivu, driving for Phaeton, were able to navigate the circuit well. Rassinen crossed the line in 1st place followed by Koivu and Prescott.

The Azmir Grand Prix began with Prescott leading most of the race until he spun his car and crashed on Lap 66. Phaeton driver Tertius DiParadisa, who had been attempting to overtake Prescott for several laps, took the victory. His teammate, Koivu, had suffered a slow pit stop on Lap 12 and a spin on Lap 34. LZS driver Stefan Lakowski came 2nd while Santoro followed in 3rd.
