Porsche Carrera Cup North America Announces 2027 Calendar
Porsche Motorsport North America has revealed the seven-round 2027 Porsche Carrera Cup North America schedule, highlighted by the series' debut as a support race for the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January. The series has also renewed its agreement to be sanctioned by IMSA.
The 2027 Porsche Carrera Cup North America schedule features seven of the most recognizable road racing events in the United States, ranging from traditional road course events in conjunction with the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, the world stage in support of Formula 1 rounds at Miami and Austin, Texas, and another highlight appearance at the Grand Prix of Long Beach.
The renewed IMSA contract and the return of the Type 992.2 Porsche 911 Cup car on Pirelli P Zero DHG tires brings continued stability to the premier one-make series in the United States as Porsche Carrera Cup North America enters its seventh season.
The 2027 season will open at Daytona International Speedway, January 27-29, as part of the racing action at the Rolex 24. It marks the first time that Porsche Carrera Cup North America has raced at Daytona.
The championship remains with the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship for races at Sebring International Raceway and the streets of Long Beach. For the fifth season in a row, the series will return to Florida for the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix.
Following a summer break, Porsche Carrera Cup North America meets up with IMSA at Road America and Road Atlanta before the finale at the Formula 1 U.S. Grand Prix in Austin, Texas. This will be the fifth consecutive year the championship will conclude at Circuit of the Americas.
"Our 2027 schedule is a purposeful balance of quality and quantity for our teams, drivers and partners," Volker Holzmeyer, president and CEO of Porsche Motorsport North America, said. "The addition of Daytona adds another highly desirable event to our calendar. Our work with IMSA has helped us grow and continue this program and we're thankful to the IMSA team for continuing this relationship. We're appreciative of everyone working together to make Porsche Carrera Cup North America the premier one-make championship in North America."
"IMSA is proud to confirm a multiyear agreement to continue sanctioning the Porsche Carrera Cup North America," said IMSA President John Doonan. "The Porsche brand is synonymous with endurance sports car racing and Porsche Carrera Cup North America races are a natural fit on our event weekends. Over the years, this series has been a key developmental step for drivers and teams on their way into series such as the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge, in addition to being a destination series for Porsche enthusiasts. We are grateful to our partners at Porsche Motorsport North America for continuing to trust us with one of their prized possessions."
Daytona, Sebring, Road America and Road Atlanta will make up the ANDIAL Cup in 2027, a championship within a championship where drivers compete exclusively on the most iconic, storied North American road courses.
