- Practice = 20 minutes
- Qualifying = 10 minutes
- Warm-up = 5 minutes
- Race 1 (Feature) = 25 minutes
- Race 2 (Sprint) = 15 minutes (Reverse Grid)
Series Changes
For 2011 the race times for both rounds will remain the same as 2010, however each race will have a absolute lap length in order to avoid issues such as under filling fuel in the cars due to miscalculation of the race length. The lap count for each race will be declared prior to the event based on the length of the lap time at any given track.
Three car teams also make a return for 2011 in order to allow for bigger grids due to popular demand. A maximum grid size has not yet been imposed but a decision will be made after pre-season testing on the size of the grid, in the event of more cars entered than slots available the times of qualifying will declare those that are allowed to enter the 2 races.
The series schedule has been lengthened to 14 rounds with the single round event dropped from 2010. Due to the enlarged grid size for 2011 it has been decided the Top 15 positions will score points but kept to a similar points scale as previous seasons.
