2012 Racecar Euro Series

The 2012 Racecar Euro Series was the 4th season of Racecar Euro Series season, and the first EuroNASCAR season under NASCAR sanctioning. The season began on April 8 with the Nogaro 200 at Circuit Paul Armagnac and ended on 14 October with the Le Mans Finals at Bugatti Circuit after five championship rounds and a non-championship round at Tours Speedway. NASCAR's standard rules, such as beneficiary rule and green-white-checker finish, were adopted by the series starting from this season.

TFT Racing driver Ander Vilariño was crowned as the first Driver's Champion in the NASCAR years after scoring six race wins during the season, edging Romain Thievin by 16 points in the final standings. Thievin did not win a race, but managed to score a podium in nine championship races. Fellow Spaniard Javier Villa was third, 64 points adrift from Vilariño. Villa took one victory at Brands Hatch, his only win in EuroNASCAR. Romain Iannetta and Gaël Castelli were the other winners in the championship rounds while Ben Kennedy and 2011 champion Éric Hélary took one win each in the Tours non-championship round. French driver Carole Perrin scored a third place finish in the fifth race at Spa-Francorchamps, making her the only female driver to finish on the podium in EuroNASCAR's top division as of the 2023 season.

In the Open division, Simon Escallier became the first champion of the present-day EuroNASCAR 2 division. Escallier swept the races at Circuit Ricardo Tormo on his way to championship victory, 44 points ahead of Alain Grand. Six other drivers scored victories in 2012, most of them were taken by part-time competitors. Outside of Escallier, Vincent Gonneau was the only other full-time driver to win a race. Martin van Hove and Olivier Porta took two race wins while Adriano Medeiros, Loic Deman and Marc Duez secured one victory each.
