The 2021 Superleague Lights season is the 3rd GPVWC Superleague Lights season; the current second tier of the Career Ladder. Liam de Waal enters the season as the reigning Drivers' Champion, whilst reigning 2020 Superleague Lights Teams' Champions Cenobite Motorsports took the step up to the Superleague series.

With the promotion of Mayor Downard Racing Team and Powered by RSR, plus the withdrawal TG Racing Esports and CM-Tech over the winter, Zedderick Racing enters the 2021 season as the highest-placed team left from 2020.

15 teams are expected to take part in the 2021 season. As in recent seasons every car will be powered by a Martex 1600cc turbocharged V6 power unit and use GPVWC brand tyres.
