Online broker Capital.com announced it will sponsor Cypriot race car driver Vladimiros Tziortzis as he competes in the 2026 NASCAR Euro Series, markring the CFD trading platform first entry into motorsports.

Tziortzis will drive the No. 6 Ford Mustang in Capital.com livery throughout the PRO category season, which kicks off in Spain in April and runs through six European venues expected to draw over 300,000 spectators.

The driver announced the platinum sponsorship deal Wednesday at a press conference in Nicosia.

Capital.com Enters Racing Circuit

The partnership brings Capital.com back to sports sponsorships after previous forays into sports marketing . The broker signed a deal with Spanish football club Valencia in 2018 and later sponsored professional kiteboarder in 2023.

Capital.com isn't the first trading platform to dip into NASCAR. TradingView sponsored two NASCAR cars for select races in 2018, though that arrangement covered only limited events rather than a full season.

"At high-performance levels, performance is not defined only by speed,” said Capital.com's European CEO Christoforos Soutzis. “It is defined by discipline, by the ability to operate within strict limits, to process information accurately and to execute consistently over time,” he added.

Driver Brings European Racing Experience

Tziortzis finished second in the EuroNASCAR 2 category in 2023 and has competed in the series since 2020. The 2026 season will see him racing in the top PRO division, with testing scheduled to continue through early April before the season opener in Spain.

"I want to thank the company, as their move shows there are still companies today that truly support sports and, in this case, Capital.com promoting Cyprus through my participation in a certified FIA championship," Tziortzis said at the announcement.

The calendar includes races in France at the Formula 1 circuit of Paul Ricard, plus stops in England, Czech Republic, Italy and Belgium.

The full car reveal in Capital.com colors is scheduled for late March, when Tziortzis will also announce his racing team for the season. He's currently completing pre-season testing that runs through early April.
