A Full 26-Team Grid Set to Define the 2026 NASCAR Euro Series Season
The 2026 season of the NASCAR Euro Series will feature a complete 26-team grid, confirming the impressive growth, stability and competitive depth of Europe’s premier touring car series. Team FJ Organization deliberately limited the field to 26 cars as part of the championship’s strategic vision to further enhance the competition quality and the value of ownerships, ensuring a professional and highly skilled line-up across both championships.
With teams representing 11 different countries — the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, Georgia and Japan — and 24 full-season spots already assigned while multiple projects push to secure the final full season entries. Others will be welcomed to participate in selected events based on Wild Card entries.
Leading the field is the reigning Endurance Teams Champion, Team Bleekemolen. The Dutch powerhouse returns with a three-car effort for 2026, reinforcing its status as one of the benchmark organizations in the paddock. After securing the 2025 Teams title through consistency and operational excellence, Team Bleekemolen aims to defend its crown.
PK Carsport, the team that dominated the Drivers Championships in 2025 thanks to titles secured by Vittorio Ghirelli and Thomas Krasonis will be back with two cars. The Belgian squad continues to represent excellence in the series and remains one of the absolute references in terms of performance, structure and title ambitions.
Fusing French expertise with dynamic North American ambition, ALUMITEC Racing is set to make a commanding statement in the 2026 season. This premier French team, backed by Canadian ownership, reinforces its professional commitment by unveiling a new, state-of-the-art facility in France. With a strong two-car effort secured for the full season, ALUMITEC Racing’s investment underscores the unprecedented global appeal and competitive ascent of the NASCAR Euro Series.
The French contingent will be incredibly strong: perennial title contenders RDV Competition and Speedhouse, which confirms an impressive three-car operation, will bring plenty of firepower for a strong French presence on the grid, reinforced by the return of the series to France at Circuit Paul Ricard on May 23-24.
Canada will also be represented by a distinct flavor with Hunter Aviation Racing joining the grid, adding an exciting international presence to the competition.
Italy’s rich racing tradition is once again taking center stage, highlighted by the return of the longstanding powerhouse CAAL Racing. Known for its consistent performance, CAAL Racing will be back with a formidable two-car effort, ready to compete at the highest level. They are joined by Club Competition, which will also represent the nation with one dedicated full-time car, further bolstering the Italian presence on the grid.
The competitive depth of the championship is further highlighted by multiple-time champion team Hendriks Motorsport, which fields a three-car line-up for 2026, expanding its presence and strengthening the Dutch contingent, alongside the technical alliance with Rette Jones Racing which continue reinforcing the growing connection between Europe and the United States.
Germany will be represented by Bremotion, continuing its competitive journey with a full-season entry, highlighting their longstanding commitment to the series, while Marko Stipp Motorsport, another longstanding presence, will continue with one car.
THT by RaceArt Technology, entering one full-season car, will return to fly the Swiss colors while the United Kingdom is represented by LUX Motorsport with a determined single-car program. The international line-up is further bolstered by the addition of Japan, represented by the car fielded by the team Needs24 by RDV Competition.
Georgia makes a strong statement through Kolkhi Georgia Team, confirming the championship’s expanding footprint in emerging motorsport markets.
Altogether, the 2026 NASCAR Euro Series grid brings together teams from 10 different countries, a truly international line-up reflecting the strength and diversity of the championship.
With 24 full-season entries already secured and several ambitious projects competing for the 25th and 26th and final slot — Club Competition, Bremotion, Marko Stipp and others are all working on additional cars — the competitive landscape is nearly complete. The final position on the grid has become one of the most coveted opportunities in European motorsport, especially with the season opener — the NASCAR GP Spain at Valencia on April 18-19 — fast approaching.
For team owners and drivers still evaluating their programs, the situation is unmistakable: the 2026 NASCAR Euro Series season will feature a full grid, elite-level competition and unprecedented international depth. The last spots will not remain available for long.
