2024 Italian GT Championship
The 2024 Italian GT Championship was the 33rd season of the Italian GT Championship, the grand tourer-style sports car racing founded by the Italian Automobile Club (Automobile Club d'Italia). The season started on 4 May at Misano[1] and ended on 27 October at Monza. Similar to the GT World Challenge Europe, the Italian GT Championship was split into two, the Sprint and the Endurance Championships. New for 2024 was the separation of the GT Cup field into two different divisions, Division 1 for Ferrari Challenge and Lamborghini Super Trofeo cars and Division 2 for Porsche Carrera Cup Cars.[2]
The GT3 Sprint Drivers' championship was won by Jens Klingmann for the second year in a row.[3] The GT3 Sprint PRO-AM Division was won by Pedro Carvalho Ebrahim and Federico Malvestiti and the AM Division was won by Glenn McGee and Anthony McIntosh. For the GT Cup Sprint Drivers' championship, the PRO-AM Division 1 was won by Stephane Tribaudini and Ignazio Zanon, the PRO-AM Division 2 was won by Massimo Navatta and Andrea Palma, the AM Division 1 was won by Edoardo Borrelli and Lorenzo Casè, and the AM Division 2 was won by Nicolò Liana and Daniele Polverini.[4]
The GT3 Endurance Drivers' championship was won by Arthur Leclerc, Giancarlo Fisichella, and Tommaso Mosca of Scuderia Baldini, with the latter two winning the championship for two straight years. The announcement of the GT3 Endurance champions was briefly suspended after Vincenzo Sospiri Racing filed a double appeal after the final race held in Monza, which they later withdrew.[5] The GT3 Endurance PRO-AM Division was won by Gilles Stadsbader and the AM Division was won by Leonardo Colavita, Simone Riccitelli, and Christoph Ulrich. For the GT Cup Endurance Drivers' championship, the PRO-AM Division 1 was won by Luca Demarchi, Sabatino Di Mare, and Simone Patrinicola, the PRO-AM Division 2 was won by Giovanni Berton, Ludovico Laurini and Constantino Peroni, the AM Division 1 was won by Douglas Bolger, Alberto Clementi Pisani, and Ferdinando D'Auria which they clinched in the penultimate race, and the AM Division 2 was won by Andrea Buratti and Sandra van der Sloot.[6]
