TFT Racing driver Ander Vilariño was crowned as the first Driver's Champion in the NASCAR years after scoring six race wins during the season, edging Romain Thievin by 16 points in the final standings. Thievin did not win a race, but managed to score a podium in nine championship races. Fellow Spaniard Javier Villa was third, 64 points adrift from Vilariño. Villa took one victory at Brands Hatch, his only win in EuroNASCAR. Romain Iannetta and Gaël Castelli were the other winners in the championship rounds while Ben Kennedy and 2011 champion Éric Hélary took one win each in the Tours non-championship round.
