2023 GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup

The 2023 Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup was the eleventh season of the GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup following on from the demise of the SRO Motorsports Group's FIA GT1 World Championship (an auto racing series for grand tourer cars), the third with the sponsorship of Fanatec.

The season began on 13 May at Brands Hatch in Kent and ended on 15 October at Circuit Zandvoort in the Netherlands.

Calendar

The provisional calendar was released on 29 July 2022 at the SRO's annual 24 Hours of Spa press conference, featuring five rounds.[1] Several adjustments were announced following the conflict between the Belgian Grand Prix and 24 Hours of Spa. The opening round was moved back two weeks, as was the round at Misano. The event at Zandvoort was moved to the season finale in October.[2]

Round Circuit Date
1 Brands Hatch, Kent 13–14 May
2 Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, Misano Adriatico 15–16 July
3 Hockenheimring, Hockenheim 2–3 September
4 Circuit Ricardo Tormo, Cheste 16–17 September
5 Circuit Zandvoort, Zandvoort 14–15 October

Notes

  1. ^ a b c Boguslavskiy and Mukovoz are Russian, but they compete as neutral competitors as Russian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Gvazava, also a Russian, competes under a Kyrgyz licence for the same reason.
  2. ^ Malykhin is Belarusian, but he competes under a British licence as Belarusian national emblems were banned by the FIA following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
