FFSA GT Championship

FFSA GT Championship

The FFSA GT Championship ("Championnate de France FFSA GT") is a French Grand Touring-style sports car racing series that began in 1997. It is controlled by the Fédération Française du Sport Automobile (FFSA) and organized by the Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO).

History

Founded by Patrick Peter in 1997 as an off-shoot of the international BPR Global GT Series, this national version would feature a wide variety of Grand Touring-style cars in multiple classes competing at the same time on mostly French courses. 1998 saw the SRO take over the series as the classes were reorganized to reflect the changes made in the new FIA GT Championship, continuing in a similar formula today.

Currently the series uses GT1 (from FIA GT) and GT3 (from the FIA GT3 European Championship) classes in competition at a variety of French tracks.
