Running from November 2024 to April 2025, the New Zealand F5000 Association has announced its 24/25 calendar for the summer season, which includes the return of an overall driver’s title.  “There are also points for starting each race,” explained Glenn Richards, President of the F5000 Association for cars that captivated and headlined motor racing in the 1970s.  “The series has matured, and the call to award a series champion has been answered.  By finishing all races you’re going to be in strong contention for that title.”
