Calendar changes For 2026, the GT2 European Series will reduce the number of rounds from 6 to 5. In contrast to 2025, the series will race at the Monza Circuit for the season opener and at the Algarve International Circuit to finish the season, which returns to SRO competition. Circuit Ricardo Tormo has also been dropped, but the championship will return to Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, Misano World Circuit and Circuit Zandvoort.
Series news 2026 will introduce a new Silver class and permit Gold and Platinum-rated drivers to compete in the series for the first time. Additionally, the Am class has been renamed to the Masters class. The series will also be incorporated into the SRO GT Academy program, where the fastest Silver-rated driver racing a Maserati MC20 GT2 or a Mercedes-AMG GT2 will be awarded a full season GT World Challenge Europe drive in a Mercedes-AMG GT3. Later it was announced that Ginetta would also join the initiative with their Ginetta G56 GT2. In November 2025, the GT2 European Series announced that the Nürburgring would no longer host a round in the 2026 championship, reducing the number of rounds from six to five. Ligier Automotive also announced that it would seek to enter the GT2 European Series with its new JS2 RS. In the announcement, they confirmed that their entry will support the SRO GT Academy initiative.
