• Multiple competitors withdrew or were replaced before or during the season due to various factors such as travel limitations and team departures. Notable examples include Kush Maini (R-ace GP), Jackson Walls (Arden Motorsport replaced by Alex Quinn), Reece Ushijima (M2 Competition), and drivers from Global Racing Service following their withdrawal.

Calendar

The initial calendar for the 2020 season was revealed on 11 September 2019.

Following numerous delays and cancellations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Renault Sport issued an updated ten-round schedule on 15 May 2020. This revised itinerary brought back events at Magny-Cours (first time since 2010), Imola, and Zandvoort (returning after last hosting races in 2004 and 2000 respectively). Events originally planned for Monaco, Hungaroring, and Silverstone were cancelled without rescheduling. Subsequently, on 25 September 2020, the championship confirmed its participation as a support series for the 2020 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix held at Imola to compensate for the lost Monaco round.
