The 1979 Dywa Grand Prix Series season was the second series of the Dywa Grand Prix Series. Following the unexpected success of 1978, a number of changes were introduced for the following season. For one, there was a new chassis — the Dywa-002, complete with a brand-new ground-effects system. On the sporting side of things, there were additional changes; the fourteen-team entry limit was scrapped and pre-qualifying implemented, using an atypical system of having the bottom fourteen teams in the standings enter pre-qualifying. Furthermore, the number of races expanded to fourteen, with the addition of a trip behind the Iron Curtain.
