Regulation
The championship reward is the International Challenge Category which is the overall winner. Since 2007, Asian drivers also have a parallel classification with the Asian Challenge Category.
Another classification, for Chinese events only, is the China Formula Renault Challenge, which is an entry-level series intended to reduce the championship cost. All series drivers and teams will race at the same time during the races in China but points will be calculated separately.
The cars can be tested outside the race weekend on the Zhuhai International Circuit or Shanghai International Circuit.
The race weekend starts on Thursday and Friday with a 2 hour free practice session but with additional cost for drivers. On Saturday there are two 30 minute practice sessions and 20 minutes of qualifications. A warm-up (15 minutes) occurs on Sunday morning and two 10 lap races are held in the afternoon.
Only drivers/teams that complete 75% of the race are awarded by points. Points are allowed in each race, as follows:
| Drivers points attribution | ||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Position | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 |

Famous quotes containing the word regulation:
“Nothing can be more real, or concern us more, than our own sentiments of pleasure and uneasiness; and if these be favourable to virtue and unfavourable to vice, no more can be requisite to the regulation of our conduct and behavior.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“Nothing changes my twenty-six years in the military. I continue to love it and everything it stands for and everything I was able to accomplish in it. To put up a wall against the military because of one regulation would be doing the same thing that the regulation does in terms of negating people.”
—Margarethe Cammermeyer (b. 1942)
“Lots of white people think black people are stupid. They are stupid themselves for thinking so, but regulation will not make them smarter.”
—Stephen Carter (b. 1954)
