The British series Speed Euroseries has been reborn from the ashes and will be back on the 2019 sports calendar.

The series, reserved for CN cars, has an agreement with the Ultimate Cup Series and with V-Motor Company – for the technical part – the series is taking name Speed Euroseries by Ultimate Cup Series as of the first round at Estoril.

The competition is therefore open to CN cars, with either the atmospheric Honda 2 liter engine or the EP6FDTR turbo-charged Peugeot engine, a 1600cc direct injection engine, the only homologated turbo engine. The engine speed is limited to 8200 rpm.

The schedule does not fully marry that of the Ultimate Cup Series, the Speed Euroseries will not be going to the Slovakia Ring but will instead be present at Vigeant at the Val de Vienne.
