In the 1999/2000 season the Malta Grand Prix was the only continental European ranking event and in 2000/2001 there were none for the first time in 13 seasons.
Sljedeće sezone Malta Grand Prix bio je jedini rangirni turnir u kontinentalnoj Europi, a u sezoni 2000./2001. nije ih uopće ni bilo, prvi put u 13 sezona.
