TCR goes hill climbing – a new touring car series aims to conquer finally hill climbing racing in Europe

The TCR touring car series is booming. In addition to World and European Championships, there are also numerous national TCR series which are extremely popular. China, Thailand, Russia, Great Britain, Portugal, Germany and many other nations successfully run TCR circuit races. But that's not all: After a postponement last year, the TCR should also conquer mountain racing in 2020!

Together with promoter BZ Consult, Auto Sport Switzerland will organise the "ASS TCR Hill Climb Series" in Europe. The competition is an official, international FIA-approved racing series. The calendar includes six events with the venues deliberately chosen to host the races in Central Europe; in countries where an affinity to TCR is guaranteed. The "ASS TCR Hill Climb Series" can be expanded to include eight events in the future.

Interested drivers are invited to enroll between now and the 28th of February resp. 18th of April 2020 for the entire season or individual events. The number of participants is not limited. The goal is to have up to 20 TCR cars in the series in three to five years’ time.

The following six events are scheduled in the 2020 calendar and approved by the organisers:
