Notes

  1. 1 2 3 4 Ekelchik, Mukovoz and Nesov are Russian, but they compete as neutral competitors as Russian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Salikhov, also a Russian, competes under an Armenian licence for the same reason.
  2. Malykhin is Belarusian, but he competes under a British licence as Belarusian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
