2012 Blancpain Endurance Series

This highly prestigious European GT endurance racing championship is approved by the FIA and presented by the Royal Automobile Club of Belgium and SRO Motorsports Group, with the support of the prestigious Swiss watch manufacturer.

Built around the legendary Total 24 Hours of Spa, which will form an essential part of the series, its first aim is to provide a very serious technical environment but with an application of the sporting rules in line with the wishes of the large majority of private teams and amateur drivers.

Reserved for GT3 and GT4 cars, which have already made their mark in long-distance races, the new series will be centred around GT racing’s showcase event, the Total 24 Hours of Spa. The remaining five three-hour events will take place at high-powered Monza, in Italy, Spain’s newest circuit of Navarra, France’s popular and classic Paul Ricard, Germany's F1 GP track at Nurburgring, and the home of British racing, Silverstone.

We will be running a BMW Z4 GT3 for Ecurie Ecosse in the Pro-am class of this top European championship, which is set to be contested by 50+ highly competitive GT3 machines.
