TCR Panama (officially the TCR Panama Touring Car Championship) is a national touring car racing series held in Panama that runs under the international TCR technical regulations. The championship was established in 2025 and held its inaugural event at the Autódromo Panamá in February 2025.
History
The creation of TCR Panama was announced ahead of the 2025 season as part of an agreement between local promoters and the WSC Group, the global rights holder of the TCR concept. The championship marked the arrival of the TCR format in Panama, with its debut weekend taking place on 22–23 February 2025 at Autódromo Panamá.[1]
Regulations
The series follows the international TCR technical regulations for production-based front-wheel-drive touring cars with turbocharged 1.75–2.0-litre engines and standardized Balance of Performance adjustments. Sporting and technical details, such as weight, tyres and penalties, are defined by the WSC Group framework and the national sporting regulations issued by the local organiser.
Race format & broadcast
Each round typically consists of free practice sessions, a qualifying session and two races per weekend, similar to other national TCR championships. The Race Durations are 20 Minutes per Race. The points system are set out in the official sporting regulations for each season.
Race Number 2, 5-10 will be broadcast live in 2025. They will be shown on the YouTube channel of "Autodromo Panama" with Spanish commentary, on Parc Fermé TV's You Tube channel and on Motorsport Televisions Deutschland's YouTube channel with German commentary. Race 1, 3 & 4 was not broadcast.
