Race calendar

The series schedule was announced on 19 December 2019. [4] However, after multiple postponements and cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a revised calendar was announced on 29 May 2020. This new calendar includes new rounds at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and Miami Speedway. The rounds in support of the United States Grand Prix and at Circuit Trois-Rivières in Quebec, Canada - the planned first international event for the series - were not included in the reworked calendar.[5][6]
