The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup return to the Norisring in the 2025 season
The calendar for the 2025 Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland has been locked in. The one-make cup with the 375 kW (510 PS) Porsche 911 GT3 Cup will contest 16 races across five countries. The programme includes two race weekends as part of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and six appearances alongside the DTM. For the first time since 2019, the ‘Norisring Speedweekend’ on the street circuit in Nuremberg returns to the schedule. Premium mobility provider Sixt will again be the title partner in the 36th season of the German Carrera Cup.
In 2025, the Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland will again run two ca. 30-minute sprints on each race weekend. The season kicks off in April with the WEC round in Imola, Italy. The Porsche 911 GT3 Cup will also contest the following two races at Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium as part of the World Endurance Championship support programme. The DTM sets the stage for the remaining six rounds, with the first event held in Zandvoort in the Netherlands, followed by three rounds in Germany at the Norisring, the Nürburgring, and the Sachsenring. In September, the Carrera Cup heads to the Red Bull Ring in Styria, Austria. The season wraps up at the Hockenheimring at the beginning of October.
“With our return to the Norisring and Spa-Francorchamps, we’re once again offering the drivers and teams of the Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland some attractive novelties in the 2025 season. With the FIA World Endurance Championship and the DTM, we’re joining forces with two proven partners who guarantee a highly professional environment. On top of that, our young drivers can again familiarise themselves with four current Formula 1 racetracks,” comments Thorsten Rückert, Project Manager Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland.
