Porsche Sprint Challenge Benelux

After completing three exciting Rounds at the iconic circuits of Zolder and Zandvoort, here’s how the championship is looking so far 📊

Who will be on top after the final two Rounds at Spa and Assen? 🤔

Racing in the Porsche Sprint Challenge Benelux is possible in multiple Porsche race car models. So far this season, we have seen these cars make an appearance on the circuits of Zolder and Zandvoort.

Can you name all three? 🤓

Colours are everywhere in motorsport 🎨

From striking liveries and iconic racing flags to team apparel, helmets and the cars themselves, they all help shape the identity of our championship.

If you could bring a little bit of that racing spirit home, which of these colours would you choose to paint your walls?

Only one summer break remains ☀️

While we eagerly await the return of the season at Spa on September 24 for the Pre-Event Test Day and September 25 for Round 4, we have got some time to enjoy the summer before the action resumes.

Whether you are relaxing by the pool, enjoying the action in the Porsche Carrera Cup Benelux, Endurance Trophy Benelux and Porsche Rally Trophy Benelux, or simply counting down the days until we’re back on track, how are you spending your summer break? 👇
