Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge GB 2012, explaining the championship and Round 1 recap.

A different post today, something different than usual, while I was reading in this weeks Autosport magazine and I saw an ad from the back page from Porsche announcing their new championship. A brand new championship from Porsche in the UK called "Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge GB" has started from two weeks back. A quote below from Porsche UK web-site explains whats the championship is all about:

"Open to all Porsche GT3 Cup cars from 2009 or earlier, the Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge GB brings the rich heritage and quality of Porsche racing, to a range of drivers, from young beginners to gentlemen racers, in a cost sensitive racing series."

A Youtube video from Porsche themselves explains the championship testing at Silverstone early in the year.
