24 HOURS OF SPA

GT3 superstars flat out all day – and all night

The famous – some might even say infamous – and historic hills, crests and sweeping corners of the world-famous Spafrancorchamps circuit play host to the best GT3 cars and most talented drivers in this gruelling round-the-clock test of stamina, endurance and mechanical brilliance. The 24 Hours of Spa is the headline event in the Blancpain endurance season and is a real race of attrition with only the the very best of the best finally making it to the chequered flag.

In recent years German manufacturers such as BMW and Audi have been worthy winners of this demanding race, but the competition is always right up there with them, with the likes of Aston Martin, Mercedes, Nissan and Porsche all posing fiercely strong challenges in 2019.

The combination of such a historic circuit and fascinating endurance racing make the Spa 24 Hours a must-see event for all motor racing fans.
