2023 TCR World Tour

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2023 Kumho TCR World Tour was the inaugural season of the TCR World Tour, a new international touring car racing competition for TCR cars. Effectively succeeding the WTCR series, it was also the ninth season of international TCR competition dating back to the 2015 TCR International Series.

The season consisted of nine events selected from a number of TCR series worldwide, and would determine 15 of the drivers to qualify for the end-of-year TCR World Ranking Final.[1][2][3] The highest-ranked driver and team in the World Tour was awarded the TCR World Tour Cup.[4] It started on 28 April at Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, Portugal and ended on 19 November at Guia Circuit, Macau.[5][4]

The top 15 drivers from the World Tour were set to join the top 45 drivers that qualified with TCR World Ranking points into a 2023 TCR World Final, which was due to take place in March 2024 at the Algarve International Circuit in Portugal. These plans were later cancelled, with the event rescheduled and the qualification system revised.[6]

Calendar[edit]

The championship will be contested over nine rounds in Europe, Asia, Australia and South America.[7]
