Race calendar

The 2025 calendar was announced on 9 January 2025. ^[2] The series will make its debut on two tracks, the Automotodróm Slovakia Ring and the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli. Three tracks left the calendar in the Lausitzring, the Red Bull Ring and Vallelunga Circuit, meaning the series downsized from eight to seven rounds and will not compete in Austria for the first time in its history, despite its original name being the Austrian Formula 3 Cup.
