Calendar changes
- Formula 2 and Formula 3 followed Formula One in replacing the round at Imola Circuit with a second round in Spain held at the newly-built Madring.[4][5]
- The round at Baku City Circuit will be held a day earlier in the week than usual, with the sprint race held on Friday and the feature race held on Saturday, to accommodate the country's national day.[6]
Regulation changes
Technical regulations
- 2025 saw the championship use Aramco-supplied fuel containing 70% sustainable components, and a further increase in sustainability is planned for 2026 ahead of the series' goal of adopting fully synthetic fuels in 2027.[7]
Results and standings
Scoring system
Points will be awarded to the top eight classified finishers in the sprint race, and to the top ten classified finishers in the feature race.[lower-alpha 1] The pole-sitter in the feature race will also receive two points, and one point will be given to the driver who set the fastest lap in both the feature and sprint races, provided that driver finished inside the top ten. If the driver who set the fastest lap is classified outside the top ten, the point will then be given to the driver who set the fastest lap of those inside the top ten. No extra points will be awarded to the pole-sitter in the sprint race as the grid for it will be set by reversing the top ten qualifiers.
- Sprint race points
Points will be awarded to the top eight classified finishers, excluding the fastest lap point which will be given to the top ten classified finishers.
