The Supercars Endurance Series, formerly known as the GT4 South European Series, is a collection of three endurance racing competitions focused mainly on GT4 and Touring cars, held at circuits in Portugal and Spain.

History

The championship began in 2019 under the name GT4 South European Series. It was created and organized by the Portuguese promoter Race Ready, with support from the Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO). The season started on 20 April at Nogaro and concluded on 24 November at the Autódromo do Estoril, consisting of five point-scoring weekends with two races each, as well as one non-championship race: the Vila Real International Cup. [1]

In 2020, the championship was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Only two rounds were held in December and January of the following year, but each round featured three races. [2] Divisions were eliminated, and a single overall champion was crowned.

In 2021, the championship was restructured and renamed Supercars Endurance, opening the series to TCR cars as well. This format continued in 2022. In 2023, a separate overall GT4 championship was created, and other types of touring cars besides TCR were also accepted. The 2023 calendar consisted of four races, two in Portugal and two in Spain. [3] Three of these races were held in conjunction with the Portuguese Speed Championship. [4]

For 2024, a calendar of six events was announced, with four of them counting towards each of the following championships: the Iberian Supercars as the Iberian championship, the Portuguese Speed Championship as the national Portuguese championship, and Supercars Spain (Jarama RACE 2024) as the Spanish trophy. [5]

For 2025, the championship featured a total of six rounds across three classes: Iberian SuperCars, the Portuguese CPV (Campeonato de Portugal de Velocidade), and SuperCars España. [6]

Live streaming

All races of the 2025 season were broadcast live on DAZN Spain & Portugal for free with Spanish commentary. In addition, there was an English live stream on the YouTube channels of Alpha Live and the organizer Race Ready. Motorsport Television Deutschland also streamed the races on their YouTube channel with German commentary. The Italian outlet Parc Ferme TV broadcast the races with Italian commentary.

Where the races of the 2026 season will be streamed is still unclear.
