Race calendar and results

The provisional calendar featured 5 rounds and 18 races with the final round to be held at the Zhuhai International Circuit or Wuhan International Circuit.[17] After the cancellation of the two-race round in the support of the 2025 Chinese Grand Prix, a new season opener featuring four races was added at the Ningbo International Circuit on 18–20 April, the initial stage of the third round. In March, the venue of the season finale was announced to be in Wuhan on 3–5 October,[18] but was later switched to Zhuhai on 10–12 October.[19][20]
