| - The European Championship is a two-day tournament gathering some of the best players from all across the continent of Europe. The WCQ EC happens once a year, in the summer, after National season.

- The European Championship was a competition featuring robots from across Europe that took place during Robot Wars Extreme: Series 2. It was broadcast as the final episode of Extreme Series 2 and was originally shown on BBC Choice on February 7, 2003, but the series was dropped by the BBC before it could be shown on BBC Two. It was repeated on Dave on 22 January, 2011 at 11am. This episode was also broadcast as the final episode of German Robot Wars on November 2, 2002 on RTL II.
- The European Championship existed as a predecessor to the Formula One World Championship and was held between 1931 and 1939. The first champion was Ferdinando Minoia, with Rudolf Caracciola winning three titles. The championship was discontinued because of the outbreak of World War II in 1939, and no champion was officially declared for the last season. From 1936, the German drivers, including Caracciola, drove under the Nazi flag. Future Formula One drivers who competed in this series included Louis Chiron, Hermann Lang, Philippe Étancelin and Giuseppe Farina.
- The European Championship went from one of the most prestigious events in football into a bloated World Cup style tournament which now features every side in Europe in the finals. In the 1960’s teams like Spain and the USSR were allowed to win the title when nobody else in Europe gave a stuff about it. When the predictable likes of West Germany and Italy began to take notice they won the cup on a regular basis. However a clause in the tournament contract permitted a less fancied team like Czechoslovakia to win the cup every 30 years or so.
