history

On July 27, 2019, at a press conference of the Spa 24 Hours , it was announced that the ADAC had acquired the rights to the GT4 class for Germany and that its existing motorsport program (consisting of: ADAC GT Masters , TCR Germany and ADAC Formula 4 ) wants to expand. The new racing series is based on the ADAC GT Masters and is intended as a springboard for young talents. The series was founded by Hermann Tomczyk (ADAC Sports President), Lars Soutschka (ADAC Managing Director) and Stéphane Ratel (founder and CEO of the SRO Motorsports Group). The racing series was already integrated into the ADAC's motorsport program in 2019.

Regulations

vehicles

GT4 vehicles are permitted for the championship. The vehicle classification ( Balance of Performance , BOP for short) is carried out by the SRO Motorsports Group . As with the GT Masters, Pirelli provides the tires . Independent of the BOP, so-called handicap weights are assigned based on the driving classification of the FIA.

The driver rating is aimed at all drivers, the FIA ​​driver rating is irrelevant. The drivers can collect points for the championship standings using the same system as in the ADAC GT Masters.

The team classification is aimed at teams; only the best vehicle of a team can collect points for the classification. If several vehicles from the same team are in the points, only the best vehicle is entitled to collect points, the others fall out of the ranking and a vehicle from another team moves up.

Drivers who are younger than 20 years and have a bronze or silver FIA driver classification can compete in the junior classifications.

Drivers who are 35 years of age or older are entitled to collect points for the trophy classification. In addition, these drivers must be classified as bronze by the FIA.

There are also multipliers for the junior and trophy rankings, which depend on the driver pairings. 2 silver drivers receive single points, a combination of a silver and a bronze driver receives a 1.5-fold point multiplier, while 2 bronze drivers receive double points.
