Alon Day won his record breaking fourth NASCAR Whelen Euro Series title in 2022.

The 2022 NASCAR Whelen Euro Series was the fourteenth Racecar Euro Series season, and the tenth under the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series branding. The season began on 14 May with the NASCAR GP Spain at Circuit Ricardo Tormo and ended on 30 October with the EuroNASCAR Finals at Automotodrom Grobnik.

Alon Day became the first driver to be crowned champion for four times after he clinched the title in the final round at Rijeka. Day scored five race wins, the most of any driver in the EuroNASCAR PRO class. Swedish driver Alexander Graff finished second after scoring his maiden victory at Brands Hatch while Gianmarco Ercoli finished third after scoring three victories. Nicolò Rocca, Sebastiaan Bleekemolen and Patrick Lemarié scored a victory each at Valencia, Most, and Rijeka respectively with Lemarié's victory making him the oldest race winner in the EuroNASCAR PRO class at the age of 54 years old.[1]

Defending series champion Loris Hezemans did not defend his title as he moved to the NASCAR Cup Series to compete part-time with Team Hezeberg, but his younger brother Liam Hezemans was crowned as the EuroNASCAR 2 champion on his debut season after scoring six race victories and nine podium finishes. Italian driver Alberto Fontana, better known as the YouTube content creator Alberto Naska, finished 9 points behind Liam in second place after scoring five victories and nine podium finishes on his debut season in stock car racing. Cypriot driver Vladimiros Tziortzis finished third in the standings and is the only other race winner of the season, having won the season opening race at Valencia.

Hendriks Motorsport won the Team's Championship for four years in a row after the team's No. 50 car finished on top with 836 points while Hendriks' second team, the No. 7 car, finished second with 779 points. Finishing 10 points behind Hendriks' No. 7 car is PK Carsport's No. 24 team and Team Bleekemolen's No. 69 team, who finished the year with 769 points on their respective tallies. PK Carsport won the tiebreaker for third by virtue of better finishing results, having scored five victories compared to Team Bleekemolen's one.

  2. ^ a b This is the team name entered in the championship. The team is listed as MK1 Racing – RaceArt Technology in the Entry List.
  3. ^ a b Jonne Rautjärvi was originally entered in the No. 44 car for Vallelunga, but a crash involving teammate Janne Koikkalainen in the EuroNASCAR 2 Qualifying damaged the No. 44 beyond repair for the rest of the round.

  4. ^ a b c Nicolò Gabossi was originally entered in the No. 25 car for Vallelunga while Vittorio Ghirelli was entered in the No. 89 car. However, a crash involving Alberto Panebianco in the Saturday EuroNASCAR 2 race meant that the No. 89 car was damaged beyond repair for the rest of the week. Gabossi's entry was subsequently withdrawn while Ghirelli was transferred to the No. 25 car for the Sunday EuroNASCAR PRO race.
  5. ^ a b This is the team name entered in the championship. The team entered as Buggyra ZM – MFT Racing for Brands Hatch.
  6. ^ a b Arianna Casoli initially competed with SpeedHouse's No. 14 team at Brands Hatch, but the team was forced to not start the Sunday races due to chassis and suspension damage that can't be repaired during race week.

  9. ^ a b Roberto Benedetti was originally entered in the No. 65 car for Vallelunga, but an incident involving teammate Riccardo Romagnoli in the Saturday EuroNASCAR PRO race meant that the No. 65 car was unavailable for Benedetti for the Saturday EuroNASCAR 2 race. The Club would transfer Benedetti to the No. 55 car for the rest of the weekend as a result.
