2017 Elite Racing League season
Previous: 2016 Next: 2018

The 2017 Elite Racing League season was the 2nd 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.

Drivers and Season Calendar

Driver Changes

- Several Drivers changed manufacturer in hope for a performance boost.

- On May 20, Sébastien Bourdais suffered multiple pelvic fractures and a fractured hip after a severe incident during qualifying for the IndyCar Indy 500, forcing him to sit out the remainder of the season. However on August 23 his IndyCar team announced that he had made a full recover and had extended his ERL contract by a season as he said the he wasn't going to miss the opportunity to race in a new series.

Calendar Changes

A new race at Watkins Glen was added to the calendar however, much like the Lincoln race last season, this would be the only season to date to have a race there, the race was also a Saturday race due to IndyCar's Indy 500 Qualifying the day after with the series providing transport from the track in New York to Indianapolis, however both series saw this as unproductive so the race was scrapped after this season and if were to return it would have a different date. Many other races switched dates.
