TCR Europe Cup
The TCR Europe Cup was announced on 30 November 2025 as a compact touring car series for the 2026 season.[23] It consists of two events at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps and the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, designed as a cost-effective entry point into international touring car racing.
The format features two drivers sharing a car — an amateur or semi-professional paired with a professional. A "professional" driver is defined as one who ranked in the top 50 of the Kumho TCR World Ranking in 2024 or 2025, finished in the top five of the TCR Europe Touring Car Series standings, or has won a national TCR title.[23] The champions receive a 50% discount on entry fees for the following TCR Europe Touring Car Series season.[24][23]
