After ten seasons in the top ten and five world championships, it was the first time since 1995 for last seasons runner-up Kristers Serģis not to finish in the top ten. Due to injury, the Latvian only took part in four races but still archived three podium finishes.
The eight races of the season were held in six countries, France, Germany, Croatia, Belgium, Latvia and the Netherlands.
