2014 Dash Cup season

The 2014 Dash Cup season is the upcoming season of the Europe-based Dash Cup series.

Pre-Season Changes
The Dash Cup race weekend layout will change from a double header layout to a three race weekend, but instead of two different fields running the races, the same drivers will attempt every race in the weekend. For race 1, a qualifying session will determine the order of the starting grid, while for race 2, the field will line up in order of how they finished in race 1. However, for race 3, the results from race 2 will be inverted, and the driver who started last will start on pole and so forth. Adding onto this, each driver will only have their primary and backup car. If they wreck both of their cars in the first two races, they cannot take the grid in race 3.

Secondly, each team will consist of two full time cars, as well as a third car which can be entered for up to 4 rounds a year. With the schedule expected to be shortened to 15 races, as well as there being one over capacity race next season, the third cars will be making a third of the races. The amount of full time slots available will be capped at 30, which means there will be 15 teams appearing on a regular basis. Teams local to the track may also attempt a race as a one off, but they can be turned away.

The car models are expected to be the same, however the designs could be different, but this is yet to be officially announced.
