It started on the 23rd March in the USA at the Circuit of the Americas and ended on the 27th September in Great Britain at Silverstone. It was simulated using IndyCar Series 2005. Between this season and the 2009 season the series acted as an IndyCar support series meaning IndyCar drivers could (and did) participate to improve track knowledge and experience.
