Encouraged
by the success of the Blancpain Endurance Series, world-renowned Swiss
watch manufacture Blancpain and the SRO Motorsports Group decide at the
end of 2013 to extend their partnership to the Sprint series, previously
promoted as the FIA GT Series, offering teams and drivers the
opportunity to compete for an overall Blancpain GT Series title, linking
sprint and endurance. The Blancpain GT Series runs over 10 events with 5
endurance cup and 5 sprint cup races. The objective of the Blancpain GT
Series Endurance Cup, five events centred around the Total 24 Hours of
Spa, is to take GT3 cars into endurance racing formats of three hours
with two mandatory pit stops. The Blancpain GT Series is mainly reserved
for GT3 cars, applying the principles of Balance of Performance and a
driver categorisation system successfully developed by SRO Motorsports
Group. The Series comprises the title of Blancpain GT Series Winner for
Drivers and one title of Blancpain GT Series Winner for Teams, which
will be awarded overall as well as in the Pro-Am and Am categories. It
also includes Cups : the Blancpain GT Series Sprint Overall, Pro-Am and
Am Cup for Teams and Drivers, the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Overall,
Pro-Am and Am Cups for Teams and Drivers, and the Blancpain GT Series
Silver Cup for Drivers.
