In 2021 season, publishing house Albinson & Sjöberg and Bilsport Magazine will sponsor the Jr Dragster drivers in Summit Racing EDRS Series with a total of SEK 29,500, which is distributed over the top-10 in the class

It´s that time of the year where the SFI Inspection, with SFI CEO Jen Faye in the lead, use to start up the season. But as the Covid-19 pandemic still puts everything on hold, there is some changes from the usual inspection also this year. It´s sad, but still SFI and the european companies involved in the inspection, ME Racing Service in Sweden and Robinson Racecars in England, providing opportunitys for those who´s in need to get their parts inspected.

The schedule for 2021 drag racing season.

The organizers of the Summt Racing EDRS Series have now begun work with closer collaboration to be able to offer exciting racing and well-planned events for up-coming seasons.

If we live by common sense, take care of each other, and keep distances, we can expect to race according to this schedule for 2021.

DRE in conjunction with the FIA is pleased to announce  a 6-round championship calendar for the 2021 FIA European Drag Racing Championship (EDRC). This is subject to the final approval of the FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) when it next meets in mid-December. The calendar is released with the assumption that COVID-19 restrictions are making it possible,  e.g.  allowing travel, spectators on events.

The FIA European Drag Racing Championship, will return to competition in 2021, having been forced into a one-year hiatus, due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. DRE has worked closely with the track organisers and the FIA to put together the 2021 calendar. We all look forwards to being able to return to a full FIA European Drag Racing Championship in 2021.

The Championship rounds will be as follows:

Rnd 1.  SANTA POD RACEWAY (UK) 28^th-31^st May
Rnd2.   TIERP ARENA (SWEDEN) 10^th -13^th June
Rnd 3. *  KAUHAVA (FINLAND) 8^th -10^th July
Rnd 4.   TIERP ARENA (SWEDEN) 12^th-15^th August
Rnd 5.   HOCKENHEIMRING (GERMANY) 27^th-29^th August
Rnd 6.   SANTA POD RACEWAY (UK) 9^th -12^th September

* Limited to TF and PM only

While the announcement of the calendar is the first step in the process, it is important to stress that conditions that permit the attendance of spectators to return to events will need to be in place for any of the competitions to go ahead.
All rounds originally scheduled on the 2020 calendar will return next year, with Finland’s Kauhava also coming back to the FIA EDRC schedule following its 2019 debut to bring the number of events to six. The Finnish event will however be open to only the Top Fuel and Pro Modified categories, while all four FIA EDRC categories will run at each of the other five rounds. 

See you all at the track
