2020 Formula Renault Asiacup

The 2020 Formula Renault Asiacup was a planned multi-event motor racing championship for open wheel, formula racing cars held across Asia. The championship would see drivers competing in Tatuus-F3R-spec cars with FR-19 Renault engines. The 2020 season would have been the inaugural season of the championship, following the rebranding of the Asian Formula Renault Series to align with the Formula Renault Eurocup.[1] The season was cancelled in November 2020 due to customs restrictions in China because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]
