The 2024 TCR Denmark season starts with a focussed entry for the season opener at Padborg Park, before more cars will join from Round 2 to complete a 17-car entry.
After his GMB Motorsport race team folded over the winter, four-time champion Kasper H. Jensen has found a new berth at brand-new outfit Mascot Motorsport, which will field a pair of Honda Civic Type R FL5 cars for him and Gustav Birch, plus an older FK7 for Malte Ebdrup. Last year’s runner-up Mike Halder returns with TPR Motorsport with teammate René Povlsen, and after a year with the Audi RS 3 LMS, Halder is reunited with the brand he is most acquainted, racing a Honda Civic FL5 alongside Povlsen, while Mike’s sister Michelle will start later in the season.
Insight Racing will field a pair of Hyundai i30 N cars for Jacob Mathiassen and Silas Rytter, both race winners in the past. Michael Markussen, a title contender in the past, has upgraded his CUPRA Leon Competición to the latest Leon VZ, while newcomer Marco Dahl will keep the venerable Peugeot 308 on the grid for DanAgro Racing. Completing the field is Philip Lindberg, who took his maiden win at the season finale at Jyllandsringen last year and is back with his PL Racing Honda Civic FL5.
