Notes:

• 1 - James Generic and Ronald Tenpecost agreed with the series organizer to test the Osella Rejects-1 spec's prototype on France SuperPrix. They raced under the name "Guest Caraxl"
• 2 - Loyer Racing Technologies gives Thomas Berger opportunity to drive in his home race in place of Kenneth Baker. Then in hope for better performance, Baker was replaced by Berger for the remainder of the season.
• 3 - Bernard Leclercq was injured and sidelined for two races in an accident in Hockenheim. His replacement was Alik Mori.
• 4 - Jeice Swan was found guilty by indirectly causing Leclercq injured. Therefore he was banned for the duration of Leclercq's injury. His brother Torna Swan fill his seat.
• 5 - HTMTRT team made sure that Torna Swan started at his home race, therefore they switch Hashimoto's and Swan's seat just for Irish round
• 6 - Doctors did not clear Cameron Maroon to race in Ireland after his crash in Donington affects his neck. But Al Smith Racing decided not to race in Ireland due to concerns regarding the safety and suitability of the track for Rejects-1 competition.
• 7 - Cameron Maroon feels he needs more rest to cure his neck injury, then Al Smith confirms Rafael Modena in Maroon's place for Dutch round after the Italian quited the Northgate Engineering team shortly after Irish round. Japanese Satoru Kagawa filled the vacant Northgate 2nd seat. After Modena DNQ, he cooled down and rejoined Northgate team.
