Intercontinental GT Challenge
The Intercontinental GT Challenge is a sports car racing series developed by the SRO Group in 2016. It consists of international endurance races for grand tourer racing cars complying with the FIA's GT3 regulations.
Format
The series is aimed at manufacturers. Instead of fielding their own cars, manufacturers support local teams in selected events to gain points. Four manufacturers took part in the inaugural series in 2016: Audi, Bentley, McLaren and Mercedes.The races may be stand-alone events, like the Suzuka 1000km and the Bathurst 12 Hour, or part of another championship, like the 24 Hours of Spa and Indianapolis 8 Hour, but they are all contested by cars complying with the same technical regulations.
