The 2011 GP2 Series season was the forty-fifth season of the second-tier of Formula One feeder championship and also seventh season under the GP2 Series moniker, the pan-European motor racing series for single specification open wheel GP2 cars. Thirteen teams competed over a nine event series that run from 7 May at Istanbul Park in Turkey to 11 September at Monza in Italy. The series again performed the role of a series for developing emerging young drivers, acting as the principal supporting motor racing series that fills in time between sessions of the nine World Championship Formula One Grands Prix that are held in Europe. The championship was won by reigning GP2 Asia champion Romain Grosjean at the penultimate round of the series. Luca Filippi, Jules Bianchi and Charles Pic were all divided just by two points in their battle for the second, third and fourth places respectively. Christian Vietoris, Davide Valsecchi, Stefano Coletti, Esteban Gutiérrez and Fabio Leimer was the other race winners. Following a three-year cycle, the previous GP2 chassis was replaced by a brand new car, the GP2/11, built by Italian racing car manufacturer Dallara. The engine configuration remained the same until the end of the 2017 season, with the only modifications being to the exhaust systems.Glendenning Mark 5 July 2010 http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/85014 Exclusive: First shot of new GP2 car autosport.com Haymarket Publications 21 September 2010 The series changed tyre supplier from Bridgestone to Pirelli for 2011–13.http://www.gp2series.com/News-Room/News/2010/06/GP2-Series-with-Pirelli-in-2011-2013/ GP2 Series with Pirelli in 2011-2013 24 June 2010 GP2 Series GP2 Motorsport Limited 1 January 2011 The 2011 season saw the addition of two new teams to the grid, Carlin and Team AirAsia.http://www.gp2series.com/News-Room/News/2010/09/GP2-Series-announce-teams-for-2011-2013/ GP2 Series announce teams for 2011-2013 21 September 2010 GP2 Series GP2 Motorsport Limited 1 January 2011 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20120306075745/http://www.gp2series.com/News-Room/News/2010/09/GP2-Series-announce-teams-for-2011-2013/ 6 March 2012 Meanwhile, DPR was not selected to continue in the series.
