## Footnotes

* ↑ Ali Akabi is an Iraqi driver competing under a Jordanian license. The FIA did not recognise the Iraqi ASN (Iraq Club for Cars and Motorcycles) at the time (having only done so since 2021), despite Akabi appearing as Iraqi on the series entry list.
* ↑ Emil Skärås claimed the pole position as a guest driver. The 3 bonus points has been given to the highest qualified eligible driver – Hadrien David.
* ↑ Elias Seppänen crossed the finish line first but was disqualified for exceeding track limits and causing a collision with Lucca Allen. He also set the fastest lap, however, the bonus points has not been reallocated.
