It features multiple grand tourer race cars based on production road cars and conforming with the GT1 (2010-2011) and GT3 (2012-) regulations competing in one-hour races on multiple continents. Championships are awarded each season for drivers and teams. The FIA GT1 World Championship has started in 2010 as a successor to the previous FIA GT Championship which featured the GT1 category as well as a GT2 category. In 2012 the series originally planned to move away from exclusive use of GT1 cars by allowing 2009-spec GT2 from the former FIA GT Championship as well as current performance balanced GT3 specification cars to compete alongside the series’ current GT1 cars. However as there were no interested GT2 teams and only a handful of former GT1 runners were willing to participate, the SRO decided that the 2012 season would be contested with GT3-spec cars only (yet retaining GT1 in the series’ title).

Hanoi Jane!
GT1, as much as I love you, it’s a strange relationship! FIA WEC is ‘The Pinnacle of Sports Car Racing’, but GT1 just has a special quality. If only GT1 was still GT1.
“GT1 2012 The Pinnacle of Sports Car Racing” or GT3 racing? These cars don’t even use gear stick anymore. Year 2011 was better. Shame.
i love u mr ben i lick your viedeo
I miss the Saleens.
Vine por Out!
Prediction for this weekend is….. no 720p
my prediction for this weekend….
Navarra…. Lambo.
It’s still great racing, good fun to watch, but i can’t help but missing the GT1′s in their original format from the late 90′s. Back when Vipers and Corvettes were GT2′s. Real powerhouses and battlemachines on one track in a multiclass 4 hour race.
Still, it’s better than seeing a parade race between programmed single layout single seaters.
Looking forward to see the race and chat with the fans again, one month is a long wait!
as much as i love GT1, imo “the pinnacle of sports car racing” is a little bit of a stretch, especially when there are no actual GT1 cars participating, and double especially when the GT3 European challenge and blancpain endurance series, which use the same cars, have 2-3 times bigger grids.
Sooner or later McLaren will win…
Always love to see an Aston Martin win but can’t see past an R8. Sorry.
