All the teams in the first season were new entrants. During the season there were many team changes and a few re-branded team names, with some changing management staff.

[[Sparshot Racing]] was the first casualty of the season, when it was announced the day after the [[2000 Hungarian Grand Prix|Hungarian]] qualifying session that its manager [[Nick Douglas]] had resigned. It followed [[Peter Kent]]'s unexplained resignation from the team after [[2000 Italian Grand Prix|the first race]] and [[Samuel Manier]]'s failure to attend the Hungarian qualifying session. GPVWC founder and administrator, [[Dan Lawrence]], who was also the team's lead driver, bought the team (resigning as the team's driver in the process). However, Manier withdrew the rights to the team's name and so the outfit was re-branded as [[Dan Lawrence Racing]]. After the Hungarian race meeting, [[Borje Johnston]] was hired by DL Racing to replace Lawrence.

[[Feilerfuf]] were temporarily ejected from the competition after the Hungarian qualifying session, having not fielded any drivers at all in the first race and none for the Hungarian qualifying session. New Zealander [[Barry Gifford]]'s [[Pacific Racing]] was entered in place of Feilerfuf, initially with a Britten power plant, having entered a partnership with [[Brendan Maw]]'s [[Britten Racing]]. Pacific had to settle for a Fondmetal engine from Japan, though it had initially been announced they were going with Supertec. For what turned out to be the team's last race entry however (they qualified at Spa), they went back to the Britten engine.

[[Millennium]] ironically never actually survived into the new millennium, with 2000 being its first and only year with the GPVWC.

−
[[Steve White]] quit as a driver for [[Devils Racing]] after Hungary, to become manager of [[TBA Racing]]. Also after Hungary, [[Dave Harland]] took over [[Kugla Racing]] and re-branded it [[Team Racebase]], and subsequently hired [[Thomas Floate]] to partner [[Peter Visscher]], and also [[Larry Karam]] in the role of Test Driver.

Samuel Manier quit Sparshot Racing on hearing of the resignation of team manager Nick Douglas, the day after the Hungarian qualifying session. Canadian driver [[Scott Smith]] was hired by Sparshot Racing to replace him on the same day, scheduled to make his début in [[2000 Australian Grand Prix|Australia]].

[[Miroslav Polacek]] was fired from [[Silver Angels]] for failing to compete in the Australian GP.

After losing Steve White, Devils Racing hired [[Peter Knif]] (on loan from [[BA Racing]]), and also newcomer [[Reurink Roald]] as Test Driver.

The 2006 Superleague season was the seventh GPVWC Superleague season. It used Geoff Crammond's Grand Prix 4 and saved qualifying and race files were submitted to the league for checking and classification.

Format

The qualifying, race and in-season testing sessions were all driven off-line and the saved game files were then submitted to the GPVWC for validation and classification in accordance with set deadlines. Saving the game at any point (for the session to be continued) was unrestricted.

The top twelve finishers scored points in the race.
