TCR UK can exclusively reveal that the 2025 TCR UK Touring Car Champion will receive a free, full-season entry in the 2026 TCR Europe Touring Car Series.
This landmark announcement means that the 2025 Champion will be able to compete for the full season in one of TCR’s largest regional series, extending the ethos that TCR itself is built on.
Launched in 2014, the TCR concept was introduced by WSC (World Sport Consulting) to improve touring car racing on a global scale.
With over 40 TCR series around the world, the TCR concept has always been about customer racing teams and drivers competing in touring car racing at an affordable level, with the chance to progress from the National level to the Regional level in competitive machinery.
Several drivers from TCR UK have already competed in TCR Europe in previous seasons, including Lewis Kent, Isaac Smith, and Lewis Brown.
This new incentive further enhances the connection between the National and Regional levels of the TCR ladder.
TCR UK Championship Promoter Stewart Lines welcomes the announcement.
“It’s great to make this announcement, awarding the 2025 TCR UK Champion a free full-season entry in TCR Europe. Progression has always been a key part of TCR, and this offers a fantastic chance for next year’s champion,” explained Stewart.
“This new incentive means that the championship-winning driver can then make the next step up the TCR ladder to one of the longest-running Regional TCR series and take on the best touring car teams and drivers Europe has to offer.”
