Schedule

The championship was contested over a six round series:

All rounds were contested over two races except for Round 6 which was staged as a single race. The second race of Round 3 at Calder was cancelled due to program delays caused by an accident during a supporting race.[2]

Points were awarded on a 30-27-24-21-19-17-15-14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5 basis to the top 17 finishers in each race. Finishers had to cover at least 75% of the race distance to be awarded points. In multi-race rounds, the aggregate points for each driver were divided by the number of races to determine the actual championship points allocation for the driver at that round.[3]
