The field remained at 18 clubs for the 2009 season but [[Beijing Guoan (Superleague Formula team)|Beijing Guoan]] did not return to try to retain the title which they won with [[Davide Rigon]] in [[2008 Superleague Formula season|2008]], however Rigon did return in the car of [[Olympiacos CFP (Superleague Formula team)|Olympiacos CFP]] despite [[2009 GP2 Series season|GP2]] commitments. In [[Autódromo do Estoril|Estoril]], [[María de Villota]] became the first woman to race in the series and [[Sébastien Bourdais]] became the most successful racing driver to enter the series having been dropped by [[Scuderia Toro Rosso]] just weeks earlier.

Olympiacos CFP (Davide Rigon) at Superleague Formula Round 3
Galatasaray S.K. (Scott Mansell) car retrieved during third practice at Superleague Formula Round 3

The 2009 Superleague Formula season was the second Superleague Formula championship. The series was rebranded the "Superleague Formula by Sonangol" for this season and also 2010 with the Angolan oil company becoming the title sponsor.[1] It began on June 28 at Magny-Cours and finished on November 8 at Jarama.

The field remained at 18 clubs for the 2009 season but Beijing Guoan did not return to try to retain the title which they won with Davide Rigon in 2008, however Rigon did return in the car of Olympiacos CFP despite GP2 commitments. In Estoril, María de Villota became the first woman to race in the series and Sébastien Bourdais became the most successful racing driver to enter the series having been dropped by Scuderia Toro Rosso just weeks earlier. Bourdais described Superleague as "the best alternative to F1".[2]

Liverpool F.C., run under Hitech Junior Team with driver Adrián Vallés, were crowned series champions for the first time at the last event of the season.

2009 Schedule

[edit]
  • The calendar for the season was announced on January 29, 2009.[39]
  • Adding to last year's qualifying and race format, a third 'Super Final' race was added to 4 out of the 6 events for the top six points scorers from the weekend's first two races (although it was initially the top three finishers from the two races qualifying – it was changed prior to round 4 of the season). The six cars raced to decide a 'Weekend Winner' and to whom the top prize money would go but no points were awarded for this race.
  • Official race commentary on the SF World Feed same from Ben Edwards and Bruce Jouanny for every round of the season. Jonathan Green and Martin Haven have also featured in the commentary box. Ben Constanduros and Warren Pole were the pitlane reporters and interviewers.
