[3] As a response to the COVID-19 pandemic the championship had no fixed venue, and was instead held online and streamed on the official F1 Youtube channel.

David Tonizza and Red Bull Racing Esports entered the season as the reigning Drivers' and Teams' champions respectively.

Red Bull Racing Esports successfully defended the Teams' Championship title for the second consecutive year, while Jarno Opmeer won the Drivers' Championship title for the first time, driving for Alfa Romeo Racing Orlen Esports.

In the event of a tie at the conclusion of the championship, a count-back system is used as a tie-breaker, with a driver's/constructor's best result used to decide the standings.
