The Mazda MX-5 Miata is famous to be a highly capable racing platform; it's known to be the best-selling roadster in the world, buts some even claim that this model is the most road-raced car in the world.

Mazda seems to seriously agree with them so, starting in 2016, there will be multiple Mazda Global MX-5 Cup series around the world, all using the same prepared 4th-generation model.
