Calendar and results

The initial calendar was released on 29 September 2019 with 7 rounds scheduled across Germany, Austria, the Netherlands and Czech Republic.[8] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic on 16 March 2020 the pre-season test and the opening round, both scheduled to be held at the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben, were cancelled.[9][10] The first revision of the calendar saw Autodrom Most in August as the season opener.[11] On 24 May 2020 the final version of the calendar was published with the round at the Autodrom Most replaced by a round at the EuroSpeedway Lausitz.[12][13]
