2016 Renault Sport Series

The 2016 Renault Sport Series was the 12th season of Renault Sport's series of events, with two different championships racing under one banner. Consisting of the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 and Renault Sport Trophy, the Renault Sport Series ran at seven different venues where fans could get into the meetings for no cost whatsoever, such is the uniqueness of the series. It was the first season under the moniker Renault Sport Series.

The series began on 15 April at the Ciudad del Motor de Aragón in Alcañiz, and finished on 23 October at the Autódromo Fernanda Pires da Silva, just outside Estoril. Rounds at Bugatti Circuit, Hungaroring, Circuito de Jerez, Nürburgring and Silverstone Circuit were dropped. Rounds at Red Bull Ring, Circuit Paul Ricard and Autódromo Fernanda Pires da Silva returned to the series' schedule, with Eurocup had two extra races on its own, in support of the Monaco Grand Prix and Monza round of Clio Cup Italia and Renault Sport Trophy supported Imola round of the European Le Mans Series.
