Calendar
The 2017 provisional schedule was announced on 28 November 2016, with ten events scheduled. Two out of these ten rounds are to be held supporting the 2017 Formula One World Championship. The rounds in Portugal, Italy, Russia, Singapore, Malaysia and Macau were discontinued while Georgia, Hungary and Abu Dhabi will make their first appearance on the calendar.[41] Monaco was initially included on the calendar before it was removed after it was found the Monégasque ASN had never entered negotiations to stage the race.[42] China was included on the calendar on 18 December 2016 following the announcement of the TCR Chinese Series' calendar. The Hungaroring round was later pulled back two weeks for logistics reasons.[43]
