The 2023 European Truck Racing Championship, also known as the Goodyear European Truck Racing Championship for sponsorship reasons, will be a motor-racing championship using highly tuned tractor units. It is the 39th year of the championship. A nine-round season was announced on 7 December 2022, with the season beginning on 20 May at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli and ending on 1 October at the Circuito del Jarama.[1] The season was shortened to eight rounds pre-season due to construction work at the Hungaroring.
A nine-round season was announced on 7 December 2022. All venues from the 2022 season were initially slated to return. Additionally, a new event at Tor Poznań in Poland was added for 2023.[1]
On 11 April, the series announced that the scheduled round in Hungary at the Hungaroring was cancelled due to reconstruction work occurring at the venue, dropping the season to eight events.[2]
