The 2026 O-NE Superrace Championship, South Korea's premier motorsports festival sponsored by CJ Logistics, is holding the final race of this season's grand journey.

Rounds 7 and 8 of the Toyota Gazoo Racing 6000 class, the top-tier division of the Superrace Championship, will take place as the season finale titled "GOLDEN MOMENTS" on October 24 – 25 at the Everland Speedway in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province.

In this season's Toyota Gazoo Racing 6000 class, Lee Chang-wook (Kumho SLM) secured victory in the 6th round, bringing his driver ranking points to 159. By widening the gap to 68 points over Hwang Jin-woo (Jun-fitted Racing, 91 points), who is currently second in the standings, Lee secured this season's driver championship regardless of the results in the remaining two rounds.

As a result, Lee Chang-wook claimed the glory of the driver championship for the second consecutive year, and Kumho SLM also captured the team championship title.

The owner of the second-place spot in the driver ranking points will be decided in Rounds 7 and 8, which unfold this weekend.

Since a maximum of 54 ranking points can be earned by sweeping both Rounds 7 and 8, the competition for second place is fierce.

Hwang Jin-woo in second place (91 points) is being closely pursued by third-place Lee Jung-woo (Kumho SLM, 85 points) with a margin of just 6 points, and fourth-place Jang Hyun-jin (Seohan GP, 73 points) also has a point differential that keeps him within striking distance of Hwang, leaving no room for complacency.

In addition, Lee Chang-wook's pride-fueled drive, even though he has already claimed the driver championship, could become a variable in the dynamics of Rounds 7 and 8.

Competition for championship titles in other classes is also intense.

In the Circuit Story Academy GTA class, Jung Won-hyung (Beat R&D, 62 points) and Han Min-gwan (Brand New Racing, 59 points) are preparing for their final run for the championship title.

Also, in the Circuit Story Academy GTB class, Um Ho (Dynamic, 73 points) is challenging defending champion Lee Joong-hoon (Leopard Racing, 62 points) in pursuit of his first career championship.

Meanwhile, the thrones in other divisions such as the Prius PHEV class and the Alpine class will also be decided in this final round.

Tickets for the final round of the 2026 O-NE Superrace Championship, "GOLDEN MOMENTS," can be booked through NOL Ticket.
