An RC1 season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, which take place worldwide on purpose-built circuits and closed public roads. A points system is used at Grands Prix to determine two annual World Championships: one for drivers, the other for constructors. Each driver must hold a valid Super Licence, the highest class of racing license issued by IRM. The Division I World Championship Series, known as the R1 Championship Grand Prix, has been one of the premier forms of racing worldwide since its inaugural season in 1959.
