Two new manufacturers join the FIA GT3 category in 2009. [Audi]], with their [[V10 engine|V10]]-powered [[Audi R8|R8 LMS]], and [[Alpina]]'s B6, based on the [[BMW E63|6-Series]]. The [[Ford Mustang]] FR500GT3 does not return in 2009. [[Ferrari]] replaces its previous [[Ferrari F430|F430]] GT3 with the new [[Ferrari 430 Scuderia|430 Scuderia]] GT3, while [[Morgan Motor Company|Morgan]]'s [[Morgan Aero 8|Aero 8]] is replaced by the Aero Super Sport.

Also new for 2009 is an alteration in the structure of teams and manufacturers. Although manufacturers will still be allowed a maximum of six cars, teams are only limited to two cars. There is therefore a maximum of three teams which can campaign a single manufacturer. The manufacturers of [[Ascari Cars|Ascari]], [[Dodge]], [[Jaguar Cars|Jaguar]], [[Lamborghini]], and [[Morgan Motor Company|Morgan]] will not be eligible for the Manufacturers Cup due to not supplying the minimum of four cars required to enter the Cup.

Revision as of 00:29, 3 May 2009

2009 FIA GT3 European Championship season
Previous: 2008 Next: 2010

The 2009 FIA GT3 European Championship season is the fourth season of the FIA GT3 European Championship. The season began on May 2 at Silverstone and will end on November 14, 2009 at the Dubai Autodrome. The season will feature six double-header rounds, with each race lasting for a duration of 60 minutes. Most of the events will be support races to the 2009 FIA GT Championship season, the 2009 GT4 European Cup and the 2009 Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo.

Entry list

Two new manufacturers join the FIA GT3 category in 2009. Audi, with their V10-powered R8 LMS, and Alpina's B6, based on the 6-Series. The Ford Mustang FR500GT3 does not return in 2009. Ferrari replaces its previous F430 GT3 with the new 430 Scuderia GT3, while Morgan's Aero 8 is replaced by the Aero Super Sport.

Also new for 2009 is an alteration in the structure of teams and manufacturers. Although manufacturers will still be allowed a maximum of six cars, teams are only limited to two cars. There is therefore a maximum of three teams which can campaign a single manufacturer. The manufacturers of Ascari, Dodge, Jaguar, Lamborghini, and Morgan will not be eligible for the Manufacturers Cup due to not supplying the minimum of four cars required to enter the Cup.
