Carrera Hybrid European Masters Opens German Qualifying

The road to the Carrera Hybrid European Masters finals now runs through three German qualifiers in Dresden, Dusseldorf, and Nordlingen. With the community still growing, this is the right moment to take your shot before future finals become even harder to reach.

The Carrera Hybrid European Masters is heading onto German soil, and these first three qualifiers are a strong chance to secure your place in the finals while the field is still taking shape. As the community keeps growing, every future ticket to the finals is likely to get tougher to earn, so now is the time to get on track.

Good luck to everyone lining up for these qualifiers. We hope to see some big performances on the way to the European Masters finals.
