Red Bull driver Max Verstappen
The full entry list for this weekend’s season-ending GT World Challenge event at Portimao has been confirmed, as Max Verstappen prepares for his latest GT outing.
Full details of Verstappen’s rivals for the weekend can be found here.
Max Verstappen rivals confirmed for Portimao GT test
All eyes will be on Portimao this weekend, with four-time F1 champion Verstappen returning to GT action after last driving his Mercedes AMG GT3 competitively at the Nürburgring 24 Hours.
On that occasion, the Dutchman appeared to be on course for a dominant victory, before a reliability issue struck in the closing hours, putting an end to his hopes of claiming silverware.
This next test may only be three hours long, but on a far smaller track and with over sixty cars to battle, it will be no less fierce.
Classes for the GT World Challenge Portimao round
Unlike at the Nurburgring, there are not multiple different classes of cars racing. Instead, there are classes based on the abilities of the combined driver partnerships. From the top category down, these are Pro, Gold, Silver, and Bronze.
