Mid-season calendar changes
The 3rd round of the championship held at Korea International Circuit was postponed due to the Korean government announcing measures to prevent COVID-19 from spreading across the country. As a result, the revised calendar included a double-header hosted at Korea International Circuit at the end of the season taking place on the 20th and 21st of November.[5] The 3rd round took place at Inje Speedium, which also held the annual Gangwon International Motor Festa. The event was also held without spectators and with on-site quarantine in accordance with the government's plans to strengthen social distancing.[6]
