The 2017 Elite Racing League season was the 14th Elite Racing League season, competed over 10 races in 10 rounds. It is a non canon season (Like all Elite Racing League Seasons) Drivers and teams throughout the season battled for the Drivers and Manufacturer Championships. It started on the 19th March in the USA at the Circuit of the Americas and ended on the 13 August in Great Britain at Silverstone. It was simulated using Forza Motorsport 7. This season saw the end of the 2016 test season with BMW, Ferrari and Mercedes all withdrawing from the series whilst also considering future offers, Renault left the series to focus on their Formula One programme whilst Chevrolet returned once again to partner Honda and Toyota as Constructors. The defending Drivers Champion was Shane Wray and the Defending Manufacturers Champions were Renault but the title was vacated after their leave. The series continued its corporate relationship with IndyCar meaning, if they so wished, IndyCar drivers would be able to participate. Whilst a few drivers from 2016 remained. Michelin remained as the Tyre Supplier. Josh Smith won the Drivers Championship after he won the final race at Silverstone, defending champion Shane Wray finished 2nd and Will Power finished 3rd. Chevrolet won the Constructors Championship from Honda in 2nd and Toyota in 3rd. | |||
