Team changes
- Epic Racing Team, Measuric Racing and YTF1 all withdrew from GPVWC after the end of the 2019 season.
- Storm Racing Team took the unusual step of returning all the way back to Formula Challenge for the 2020 season.
- Having competed in the 2018 and 2019 seasons under the ACR constructor name as part of a merger with Avid Chronic Racing which ended during the 2019 season, Vod:Bul Racing initially reverted to their original constructor name for 2020, before rebranding as Abruzzi Esports piror to the start of the season.
New entries
- Chaos Engineering, Cosmo Seiki Japan, Holland Racing Team and reigning champions Red Arrow Racing were all promoted from Superleague Lights.
- Despite appearing on the grid since 2018 as part of the now-reversed merger with Vod:Bul Racing, Avid Chronic Racing initially reappeared as an entirely new, separate entity in 2020, before withdrawing their entry prior to the start of the season.
Driver changes
- Maciej Mlynek moved from Scuderia Basilea to Edge Esports, replacing Petar Brljak, who had chosen to focus elsewhere in 2020..
- Rait Kilk moved from the now-defunct Epic Racing Team to Red Archer Virtual Racing Team for 2020, replacing Fabio Sixta.
- Double World Champion David Fidock moved from Hawkeye Racing to debutants Red Arrow Racing.
- Stephane Rouault moved from VBM eSports to debutants Holland Racing Team.
- Chris Butcher and Laurent Keersmaekers, having driven some races in 2019 as substitutes for Streetfighter Racing Systems and Scuderia Basilea respectively, became full-time drivers for debutants Red Arrow Racing and Holland Racing Team respectively.
- Luca D'Amelio and Tom Satherly make their full-time debuts in 2020, both driving for debutants Chaos Engineering.
Technical changes
- The number of tyre compounds available during the season was reduced from 5 to 3. As a consequence, teams no longer had to choose which three of the tyre compounds they could use at each Grand Prix.
2020 Calendar
The 2020 calendar follows the 16-round limit introduced in 2019.
Testing
The 2019 testing schedule was as follows:
Test | Date | Venue |
---|---|---|
Preseason Test #1 | TBC | TBD |
Preseason Test #2 | TBC | TBD |
Preseason Test #3 | TBC | TBD |
Preseason Test #4 | TBC | TBD |
Young Driver Test | TBC | Circuit of the Americas, Austin |
Calendar changes
- The Malaysian, Spanish and, controversially, Monaco Grands Prix were removed from the calendar. The Malaysian round had only been reintroduced in 2019, while the Spanish Grand Prix had been held, at different venues, since 2002. The Monaco Grand Prix, however, had been held every year since the formation of GPVWC, with the only exception of during the curtailed 2001 season.
- The Dutch, French and Russian Grands Prix were reintroduced. The French race was last held in 2018 while Russia had been absent since the end of 2017. The Dutch Grand Prix, together with Zandvoort, was last held in 2012, despite an aborted attempt to hold the Grand Prix at Assen in 2016.
