The 1980 Dywa Grand Prix Series season was the third series of the Dywa Grand Prix Series. Following the chaos and controversy of 1979 Dywa Grand Prix Series season, almost all of the series' most established teams and drivers departed the series. Despite this, series organisers still announced an ambitious 14-round season.

Teams and drivers
All teams and drivers raced identical Dywa-002 chassis. However, Renzo Engineering were able to supply three sets of turbocharged engines at the start of the season, which were offered to the teams in order of their 1979 finishing positions. Only Équipe Dywa Floc'h declined the offer of turbo engines. Below, T denotes that the team secured a supply of turbocharged engines.
