WSC Group has published the first list of drivers who are eligible for the 2024 TCR World Ranking Final, which is set to take place early next year.
The list excludes drivers occupying the top 15 positions of the TCR World Tour, and is based on the ranking points each driver has earned from competing in various national, regional and international championships over the past two seasons.
65 drivers have been allocated in Priority Lists 1 and 2, occupying the positions between 10 and 80 in the TCR World Ranking system (excluding drivers in the top 15 in the points for the TCR World Tour).
Drivers have until 6 November to confirm their participation in the event, which is to be held over four days at a yet-to-be-revealed venue, with WSC.
Only 45 places from the two lists are available for the TCR World Ranking Final, meaning that any drivers in Priority List 1 who do not confirm their place will have their places taken by the drivers in Priority List 2.
Priority List 3 will be decided at a later stage, featuring wildcard drivers selected by a committee of representatives from WSC Group and the TCR car manufacturers, so long as the drivers are already ranked in the TCR World Ranking system.
