Schedule[edit | edit source]
Due to limited space in the paddock, the Round of Russia was contested as a double-header race, with the drivers holding the top 21 fastest qualifying laps contesting for the race win, while 22nd-42nd raced for the bottom half of the finishing order.
Dale Roswell won the first of the two races; but isn't listed as a race winner, as the race was split between 1-21 and 22-42 in points. Roswell is listed as finishing 22nd.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- This is the only season of the TM Master Cup Series where the numbers of the Haas Manufacturing, Kleffer Media, and The Shafer Group cars did not add up to 73. Those three sponsors are artifacts from Cynon's old RPG project Name 73, which itself appeared on a TM Master Cup Series car.
