Race calendar

The 2025 race calendar was announced in July of 2024.[21] The championship will again consist of five weekends. Highlands Motorsport Park was intended to leave the calendar and was replaced by Teretonga Park, which returned after a one-year absence. However, on 2 September 2024, it was announced that the 69th running of the New Zealand Grand Prix will be held in Highlands Motorsport Park instead of Euromarque Motorsport Park, so the latter will leave the calendar.[22]
