Кубок дружбы соцстран
The FSCC was established in 1963 on the initiative of the Motorsport Union of Poland. At first, drivers from Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria (in 1964), and East Germany participated in it. In 1965, Czechoslovakian drivers joined them, and a year later Soviet drivers did. In the middle of 1970s Romanian drivers began to race in FSCC. There were no private teams in FSCC, national teams only: Czechoslovakian, Soviet, Hungarian, etc., so the team championship transformed into the Nations Championship of the FSCC.
The points system of the FSCC is a very obscure matter - and it can only be guess at as we haven't found it in sources which have been used. As far as it is understood, it was very intricate and cumbersome. For example, each country's team got its points in the Nations Championship depending on how many drivers of this team crossed the finish line - if less than three, then a team didn't get any points.
The technical regulations of the FSCC changed over time. At first, from 1963-64, it was international F.Junior (1100 cc); then it was replaced by international F3 (1000 cc), and cars such as Lotus and De Sanctis equipped with Cosworth engines appeared on FSCC tracks at that time. Finally, in 1972, the new F.Vostok (vostok = East) was introduced. It demanded the use of 1300 cc stock block engines, and in the middle of 1980s most of the F.Vostok cars were equipped with slightly modified Soviet VAZ-21011 engines which delivered approximately 90 hp, and the maximum speed of these cars was about 220 kph.
In 1973, 1600 cc touring cars took part in the FSCC for the first time; in 1976 engine capacity was limited by 1300 cc, so most drivers were driving VAZ (Lada) cars.
In 1989, F.Vostok was replaced by 1600 cc F.Mondial, and in 1990 the FSCC was renamed the Peace and Friendship Cup. An attempt to make it a real international racing series with rounds outside of Eastern Europe was made, with the Nations Championship discontinued, and drivers from any country being allowed to participate. Some of those who took part in the Cup in 1990 were from Scandinavian countries, driving British cars. The point system was 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1. However, all these changes were in vain, and 1990 was the last season of the Cup.
Points system in the Cup of Peace and Friendship:
1964-1965: 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.5.

1967: 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.8, 0.6, 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1.

1969-1970: 15, 13, 11, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
1972: 30, 25, 21, 19, 17, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
1973-1989: 50, 46, 43, 41, 40, 39, 38, 37, 36, 35, etc., with one dropped score.
