The 2026 Season
The
Circuits
Six circuits carry the Benelux championship. Four more come with the winter season in Portugal and Spain.
The championship
The six
Benelux rounds
Spa-Francorchamps
Seven kilometres through the Ardennes forest, the longest and most demanding circuit on the calendar. Home of the legendary Eau Rouge-Raidillon complex.
Circuit Zandvoort
A twisting coastal circuit set in the North Sea dunes, famous for its steeply banked corners. Hjelte's home round, the track he knows better than any on the calendar.
Autodromo Imola
One of motorsport's great old-school circuits, narrow, fast and unforgiving, run anti-clockwise through the Italian hills.
TT Circuit Assen
The 'Cathedral of Speed', a flowing, rhythmic circuit that rewards commitment and a clean line above all else.
Hockenheimring
A fast German circuit with long straights and a tight, grandstand-packed stadium section that brings the crowd close to the action.
Circuit Zolder
A compact, technical circuit where the 2026 Carrera Cup Benelux season reaches its finale.
Beyond the championship
The winter
circuits
Portugal and Spain, in January and February, when almost every other programme is dark.
Autódromo do Algarve
A rollercoaster through the Algarve hills, blind crests and steep gradients that hide the apex until the last moment. Opens the winter season.
Circuito do Estoril
A former Formula 1 venue on the Portuguese coast, defined by a long main straight and a final corner that decides the lap.
Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya
The benchmark test track of European motorsport. Every kind of corner in one lap, which is why teams measure themselves here.
Circuit Ricardo Tormo
A compact, stadium-style circuit run anti-clockwise, with grandstands wrapped around almost the entire lap. Closes the winter season.
