In October 2023, our site finished back filling the complete history of this championship.


Please note that for the 2018-2019 as well as the 2019-2020 seasons, the schedule shifted to a "winter-summer" series, effectively skipping from a 2017 championship to a 2019 championship even though the series did not go into a hiatus. The series went back to a normal single-year schedule for 2021 onward.

It is also worth noting that this series is more focused on a car manufacturer's capabilities to build vehicles for the championship, and thus most statistics refer to the manufacturer's achievements rather than individual drivers. This is akin to the former FIA series, the FIA World Sportscar Championship, as well as the 24 Hours of Le Mans event, which also put the focus on the manufacturers.
