The Renault Sport Series—previously known as the World Series by Renault—was a European-based motor racing championship. It prominently featured the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 and at earlier stages included the Renault Sport Trophy and the Formula Renault 3.5 Series. The F4 Eurocup 1.6 joined the lineup in 2010 but was discontinued after that same year. Up until 2015, the premier competition within the series was the Formula Renault 3.5 Series (commonly referred to as the World Series by Renault or WSR). This event transitioned into the Formula V8 3.5 in 2016 following Renault Sport's withdrawal of official support. In 2020, the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 was integrated into the Formula Regional European Championship.

History

In 2003, Renault introduced the Formula Renault V6 Eurocup as a supporting category during Eurosport’s Super Racing Weekends, which featured events like the European Touring Car Championship and FIA GT Championship. This series utilized Tatuus chassis combined with a Nissan 3.5-liter V6 power unit.

By 2005, Renault departed from the Super Racing Weekend framework to establish the World Series by Renault and the Formula Renault 3.5 Series. This was achieved through merging the former World Series by Nissan—which had lost its engine supply contract—with the Renault V6 Eurocup. The restructured series retained Dallara chassis and enhanced the Renault V6 engine output to 425 horsepower. Additionally, support categories such as the Formula Renault 2.0 Eurocup and Eurocup Mégane Trophy were incorporated.

In July 2015, Renault Sport declared it would cease backing the Formula Renault 3.5 from the 2016 season onward, passing organizational responsibilities to co-promoter RPM. Nevertheless, Renault Sport maintained its involvement with both the Renault Sport Trophy and the Formula Renault 2.0 Eurocup within the scope of the Renault Sport Series.
