GT World Challenge powered by AWS will continue its longstanding relationship with Misano World Circuit. SRO Motorsports Group and Santa Monica SpA have confirmed that the event will be part of the 2026 calendar, while the groundwork has been laid for a multi-year renewal.
Stéphane Ratel, SRO Motorsports Group Founder & CEO: "I am delighted that SRO Motorsports Group will continue its long association with Misano World Circuit, which has been a cornerstone of our Sprint Cup calendar for more than a decade. The event has been a success thanks to the high regard in which the venue is held by teams and fans alike, and I am sure that they will be especially pleased with this new agreement. I look forward to many more memorable race weekends to come at Misano."
Andrea Albani, MWC Managing Director: "The GT World Challenge powered by AWS is the most important four-wheel event we host at the circuit. Over the years, it has enabled us to grow and position ourselves as a benchmark in the GT racing scene. It's a format that perfectly aligns with our philosophy of connecting with the region and offering the public increasingly immersive experiences. In the coming years, we will work to further grow this event and make it even more of a show."
First staged in 2015, the event delivers a significant economic impact to the region. According to a Trademark study on events in the Misano World Circuit calendar, the 2024 edition generated an economic impact of over 5.5 million euros.
