FIA GT Championship
Now entering its eighth season, the FIA GT Championship is growing from strength to strength, proving to be one of the most successful European series of the last ten years.
The GT Championship sees some of the most beautiful sport scars battle on some of the greatest circuits. For instance we can see Ferrari, Porsche and Lamborghini, of course, but also Chrysler Viper, Lister-Jaguar and Saleen.
Highly professional, private teams, independent of factory support, enter the cars in the Championship. The season consists mainly of three-hour races, which means driver changes, refuelling pit stops and plenty of strategy.
Towards WC-status
The Championship runs at some of the top European circuits. In the calendar for 2004, there are also one race at the brand-new circuit of Dubaï, in the United Arab Emirates, and one race at the Zhuhai International Circuit in China. These races are the result of the expansion of the series which now runs over three continents. To get a World Championship status – something that can be a reality already for the next season – this is a demand that needs to be fulfilled.
The highlight of the season is the Proximus 24 Hours of Spa, one of the classic endurance races together with Le Mans. With over 50 cars taking part around the challenging circuit anything can happen!
This race is also included in the game, with changes from daytime to night and back.
Growing coverage
On a race day of the FIA GT Championship, the racing fans have everything they could possibly want to watch live and there is no wonder that the number of on-site spectators is growing, rapidly!
As well as the visitors coming to the circuit, the media coverage is growing too.
The concept of the LG Super Racing Weekend was developed with Eurosport, a major European sports network, seen in 54 countries worldwide and available in 19 different languages.
With a full weekend package featuring the various events, the FIA GT Championship receives extensive coverage on Eurosport, Eurosport News channel and on its impressive website. The programs are also sold and distributed world-wide.
The Championship receives coverage in all specialized motor sport press worldwide, last year over 250 journalists were accredited for the final round of the series. Web sites, daily newspapers, national and international press – the interest is growing steadily and fast. In overall Europe, and right after the Formula 1 series, the FIA GT Championship is the most popular racing series.
