Gotta admit, didn't even know they sponsored them in the first place😅This is the discussion thread for an article on GTPlanet:
Fanatec’s GT World Challenge Sponsorship is Over
After being a title sponsor since 2021, racing simulator equipment manufacturer Fanatec appears to have ended its association with the SRO Motorsports group and its signature GT World Challenge series...
I still refer to it as Blancpain!I still remember the days when it was called the Blancpain Endurance Series.
Yeah. I am huge fan of the GT3 class as a whole - and I do think it is brilliant that there are so many cars and so many Championships out there - but I know what you mean. There are so many regional series, that it can be difficult to keep up.So many GT3 series globally I honestly lost track and get some of them mixed up with others...🤷🏻♂️
This series was always known by many as Blancpain, not even realising the sponsor connection to it. Since it lost that title sponsor, nobody really knows what to call it otherwise or that it's the Premier GT series out there. "GT World" just doesn't come off the same way.I still remember the days when it was called the Blancpain Endurance Series.
