Prototype Winter Series with ACO licence is in the starting blocks
The GT Winter Series will continue in 2024, along with the launch of two new racing series. The new GT4 Winter Series and the Prototype Winter Series (PTWS) will both start their first season in January. The PTWS is specifically designed for prototypes, offering drivers their own professional platform in southern Europe. The PTWS has an official license from the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO), the organizer of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Teams in PTWS receive support from car manufacturers for parts and Michelin tires, as well as regulations from the ACO. The PTWS will compete in three classes: LMP3, Class 4, and Class N, and the race calendar includes four events in Portugal and Spain. Teams have the option of booking two test days before each race weekend. Livestream coverage will be available for all races of the Prototype Winter Series 2024.
