The 2017 schedule again consists of six rounds in the Benelux region, across Belgium and Netherlands. The round held in Luxembourg at the Circuit Goodyear did not return. Each round includes a qualifying session and five races: a 60-minute-long qualifying race with a mandatory driver change, and four 20-minute-long sprint races. The starting grid for the qualifying race will no longer be established by a popular vote via Facebook, through the Making the Grid application. But will be determined by a traditional qualifying session. Race 1 uses the fastest lap of after the pit stop during the qualifying race to determine the starting grid. Race 3 uses the fastest lap of before the pit stop during qualifying race. Races 2 and 4 include a rolling start using the finishing order, respectively, of Race 1 and 3. The calendar was announced on 25 September 2016, then revised on 15 December 2016.
All races will be run together with Clio Cup Benelux in separate classifications. Rounds 2, 4 and 6 are co-headlined by the GT & Prototype Challenge.
