Silverstone will not only be about the FIA GT Championship. The first major meeting in Silverstone’s 60th anniversary year will see a total of nearly 60 Million Euros worth of magnificent GT cars in action around the track.


The first two rounds of the FIA GT3 European Championship will take place on Saturday and Sunday, with eleven different models taking part in the one-hour races. Ascari KZ1R, Aston Martin DBRS9, Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper Competition Coupe, Ferrari 430 GT2, Ford GT, Ford Mustang FR500, Lamborghini Gallardo, Jaguar XKR, Morgan Aero 8 and Porsche 997 Cup S will compete to see which will emerge victorious in this first confrontation of the 2008 season.

The GT4 European Cup is entering its second season with more cars, more makes, more drivers and a new class, Sports Light, for lighter cars with small production numbers. If last year’s action is anything to go by, the spectators will be delighted by the close action between Aston Martin, BMW, Corvette, Ford, KTM, Nissan and Porsche in two 30-minute sprints.

Come rain or shine (high chance of rain predicted) Silverstone is on track for a wonderful weekend of GT action. Don’t miss it !
