The 2024 Eurocup-3 season is the second season of the Eurocup-3 series. Eurocup-3 is a multi-event motor racing championship for single-seater open wheel formula racing cars held across Europe. The championship was created in 2023 as an alternative to the FIA-sanctioned Formula Regional European Championship and the Euroformula Open championship, after the latter series struggled to attract entries in late 2022.[1]
Teams and drivers
Teams utilize the same Tatuus F3 T-318 chassis used in the Formula Regional European Championship, but fitted with an updated body kit, a new intercooler and a battery kit. It also is 25kg lighter than the FRECA car. The car uses a 270hp Alfa Romeo-Autotecnica engine, and Hankook tires.[2]

- Evans GP originally announced that it planned to enter the championship in cooperation with Versa Motorsport.[27] It had already signed Cooper Webster and planned to field three cars, but after missing the first two rounds, it was confirmed they had abandoned these plans.[28]
- Monlau Motorsport also announced their entry into the championship, but later confirmed it would not join in 2024.[29][30]
Race calendar
The calendar for the 2024 season was announced on 20 November 2023. The race tally remained the same, at 16 races across eight tracks.[31] The series will debut at the Red Bull Ring, at Algarve International Circuit and at Circuit Paul Ricard, while Monza, Estoril and the Circuit Ricardo Tormo did not return to the schedule.[32] As the series shares its promoter with the F4 Spanish Championship, five of the eight rounds are held together with that series. The calendar was slightly amended later on, moving the penultimate round one week back.[33] A one-event winter series separate from the main championship was also held at MotorLand Aragón. After the second race at Spa was cancelled because of bad weather conditions, a third race at Portimão was added to keep the season's race tally at 16.[34]

Notes
- ^ a b c d Blokhina, Smal and Zhuravskiy are Russian, but they compete under a Kyrgyz licence as Russian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Abkhazava, a Russian-Georgian, competes under a Kazakh licence.
- ^ Free practice and both qualifying sessions were cancelled because of adverse weather conditions. The grid was set according to the times of the pre-event test, and therefore, no points for the pole position were awarded to Owen Tangavelou.
