2001 FIA GT Championship

The 2001 FIA GT Championship was the fifth season of FIA GT Championship, an auto racing series endorsed by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) and organized by the Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO). The races featured grand touring cars divided into two categories and awarded drivers and teams championships and cups for each category. The season began on 31 March 2001 and ended on 21 October 2001 after eleven races held in Europe, and included for the first time the Spa 24 Hours as a premiere endurance event for the series.

2001 FIA GT Drivers' Co-champion Jean-Philippe Belloc

Christophe Bouchut and Jean-Philippe Belloc of France won the FIA GT Drivers' Championship, while their team Larbre Compétition-Chereau were the teams champions, both earning five race victories including at Spa. David Terrien and Christian Pescatori of JMB Competition won the N-GT Cups after six race wins.

Schedule edit

The SRO Group reached an agreement with Eurosport, the promoter and broadcaster of the European Touring Car Championship, in which both series would share identical calendars. The events were promoted by Eurosport as the Super Racing Weekend, giving both series equal promotion and television coverage. The Formula Renault 2000 Eurocup was also included as a support series for all events. The only exception to this format would be the Spa 24 Hours, added to the FIA GT calendar as a stand-alone event, separate from the ETCC, after formerly holding touring car races for several decades. The addition of Spa marked the return of endurance racing to the championship for the first time since 1998 and expanded the calendar from ten to eleven events. Much of the rest of the schedule remained the same, although some races were moved to different times of the year. Monza returned to the opening of the season, as it had been in 1999, and Brno and Magny-Cours moved from the end of the season to the second and third rounds respectively. This moved the Spanish and Portuguese events to the end of the year, with Jarama replacing Valencia for the Spanish event. The Nürburgring also returned to the series for the first time since 1997 as the sole German event, replacing EuroSpeedway Lausitz. All events, with the exception of Spa, retained their 500 km (310 mi) distance format.[1]
