Race calendar and results
The calendar was published on 28 July 2015.[1] For the first time, the series will expand outside Mexico, hosting its opening round at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin. The series will also host a full-championship round in support of the 2016 Mexican GP round, as opposed to the exhibition round held the previous season, and will also extend its territory to Southeastern Mexico by holding two back-to-back rounds in the states of Yucatán and Quintana Roo.[3]
A mid-season revision of the calendar was made after the Southeastern events had taken place.[4]
