The EFDA Nations Cup, was a Country vs Country competition for Formula Opel cars between 1990 and 1998. It had always been Dan Partel's dream to stage a race that pitted drivers in equal cars racing for their country. The Formula Opel/Vauxhall one make racing series offered the best opportunity for such an event.
The 1996 EFDA Nations Cup (Nations Cup VII), was held at Donington Park, England (2/3 November 1996).
