The exciting journey to the NASCAR Euro Series 2025 begins!

The time has come for Thomas Krasonis! The first Greek professional racing driver is already in Valencia, where this weekend the curtain opens on this year’s NASCAR Euro Series championship.

The 14th NASCAR season on the Old Continent is destined to be the most impressive in every respect. A total of 24 teams have signed up for the season opener, with drivers and teams representing 19 nations from around the world.

The V8 engines will roar once again and spectators in the stands of the Ricardo Tormo Circuit will be treated to an exciting Championship premiere, full of thrills and spills!

The 4,005-metre-long track consists of 14 corners and one of the longest straights, 876 meters long, which will be the backdrop to the action in this first round of the Championship. Thomas Krasonis will again this year compete in both PRO and OPEN NASCAR Euro Series classes, driving in all races the number “13” Chevrolet Camaro of the Championship’s leading team, the Belgian PK Carsport.

Supporters of Thomas Krasoni’s effort in the NASCAR Euro Series are Costamare Shipping Company and the “Dodoni” Dairy Industry.
