Bold – Pole
Italics – Fastest Lap

† – Drivers did not finish the race, but were classified as they completed over 75% of the race distance.
‡ – Half points were awarded in Race 1 at Circuit Park Zandvoort as less than 75% of the scheduled distance was completed due to Bas Schouten deliberately blocking the Pit Lane exit after a start crash to force the Red Flag. After the Red Flag was shown, the restart would come only moments later, but there was not enough time to complete enough laps.
