Moreover, there were some tweaks to the dates of the national rounds.[30] Autódromo Internacional do Algarve as the host of the Portuguese round was confirmed on 28 January 2021. Due to more travel restrictions, the planned season opener at Circuito del Jarama in April was cancelled and replaced with a round at Circuito de Navarra in May.[31] As the official pre-season test of FIA World Endurance Championship was scheduled to take place at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps and 24H Series moved its round to Circuit Paul Ricard, the series season opener will be held one week later at the same location.[32]
