I’ll rephrase it then: major, modern international car racing

There’s actually very little international historic racing in the UK post-Covid and post-Brexit. Many competitors don’t come over, let alone the championships that used to visit. And the Masters series are very much struggling.

2019 and years prior had DTM, WEC, ELMS, GTWC Sprint and Enduro (plus supports), International GT Open…

Anyway, I digress. I quite like the GTWC calendar for next year, if I ignore Paul Ricard as the season opener. Great to see Magny-Cours back, Hockenheim/Nurburgring double-header is cool, and we still have Monza. There’s also a shorter gap between the first two Sprint rounds, Brands and Misano, which is better than the months-long hiatus this year.

I also quite like Jeddah as a circuit…I think having 50 GT3s there will be pretty spectacular, and the later finish to the season is nice too.
