2026 Le Mans Cup

Last updated

Contents

The 2026 Le Mans Cup, known as the 2026 Michelin Le Mans Cup for sponsorship reasons, will be the eleventh season of the Le Mans Cup. The six-event series will begin at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on 11 April and conclude at Algarve International Circuit on 10 October. For the first time, the flagship Road to Le Mans event will feature a single, three-hour endurance race rather than a pair of sprint races. [1]

The series was open to Le Mans Prototypes in the LMP3 category and grand tourer sports cars in the GT3 class.

Calendar

The provisional calendar for the 2026 season was announced on 28 August 2025. All venues from the previous season returned, with the 24 Hours of Le Mans–supporting Road to Le Mans changing format from a pair of sprint races to a single, three-hour endurance race. [1] [2]
