Four races were held on each race weekend, two on Saturday and two on Sunday.

In the 2nd day of the race (i.e. races 2 and 4 per race weekend), the reversal rule partially reversed the starting grid for the previous race; this concerns the top 8 at the finish line.

• The winner of races 1 and 3 of a weekend (first race of the day) started the next race (2 and 4) from position 8.
• The eighth place (8th) in races 1 and 3 of a weekend (second race of the day) started the following race (2 and 4) from pole position .
• The places in between have been reversed accordingly.

In the evaluation, a distinction was made between the races with and without reversal rule (places 1 - 10):

• Races 1 and 3 (without reversal rule): 20, 15, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 point (s)
• Races 2 and 4 (with reversal rule): 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 point (s)
