Calendar

The provisional 2015 schedule was announced on 31 October 2014. On the same day that the announcement came that the series would be renamed TCR, it was confirmed that the round in Shanghai would go back a week, because the Chinese Grand Prix and Bahrain Grand Prix switched places on the Formula One calendar. On 13 March 2015, it was announced that the Chilean round, due to be held on 9 August at Autódromo Internacional de Codegua, was postponed to 2016 due to circuit reconstruction. On 17 June 2015 the Argentine round, scheduled for 26 July at Autódromo Juan y Oscar Gálvez, was replaced by the Red Bull Ring due to organisational problems.
