Sponsorship
Although Lotus Cup Europe is run by a team of volunteers we are looking for a number of series sponsors to help cover the running costs of what we hope will become one of Europe’s premier club race series. With a fantastic race calendar, packed grids and a huge fan base there really is no better series to be involved with.
We have a number of sponsorship packages available to companies who wish to support the series and its drivers. These can be tailored around specific requirements, we are aware sponsorship needs to benefit both the sponsor and the series.
