The 2020 NASCAR Whelen Euro Series is the twelfth Racecar Euro Series season, and the eighth under the NASCAR Whelen Euro Series branding.

Hendriks Motorsport will enter the season as the defending team's champion.

Alon Day was crowned as the champion after winning 4 races and finishing all 10 races inside the Top-10. Day becomes the second three-time champion of Euro Series, tying Ander Vilariño for the most titles in history. During the course of the season, Day broke Vilariño's record for the most wins in the series when he won his 23rd career victory in the second race at Valencia.^[1] Rookie Lasse Sørensen finished second after scoring two race wins on his debut year in the EuroNASCAR PRO division, while defending champion Loris Hezemans finished third having scored two race wins. Gianmarco Ercoli and Stienes Longin were the other two race winners of 2020 after winning a single race at Vallelunga and Rijeka respectively.

In the EuroNASCAR 2 division, Hendriks Motorsport driver Vittorio Ghirelli won the title after winning 5 races and finished 9 races inside the Top-10. Series debutant and teammate Tobias Dauenhauer finished second after winning 3 races while Alessandro Brigatti finished third after scoring 4 podiums, both drivers also finished 9 races inside the Top-10. Vladimiros Tziortzis, the first Cypriot driver in NASCAR, finished fourth while Julia Landauer finished fifth. Landauer's podium finish in the third race at Valencia is the first for a female driver in Euro Series since Carole Perrin scored a third-place finish in the first Elite division race at Spa-Francorchamps in 2012.^[2] Martin Doubek was the only other race winner of the season, having swept the weekend at Zolder.

Hendriks Motorsport's No. 50 team, driven by Hezemans and Dauenhauer, successfully defended the Teams Championship title after scoring 835 points, finishing 88 points ahead of the sister No. 18 car driven Giorgio Maggi and Ghirelli. PK Carsport's No. 11 team, driven by Longin and Landauer, finished third with 713 points, 122 points behind Hendriks' No. 50 team.
