Calendar
The race calendar for the 2026 TCR Panama Championship was officially announced on 24 December 2025 by Autódromo Panamá, outlining all events for the 2026 season. All five rounds were held at the Autódromo Panamá.[1] A new feature for the 2026 season is that each event now consists of three races instead of two, as was the case in 2025.[2]
