2023 RACE CALENDAR
Grid Motorsport together with its partner JMW will compete in the European Le Mans Series (ELMS) in 2023. ELMS is a prestigious sports car endurance racing championship that features some of the world's most talented drivers and technologically advanced vehicles. Founded in 2004, the ELMS is modeled after the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans race, which has been held annually since 1923.
The ELMS is a multi-class racing series, with three different classes of cars competing on the track at the same time. These classes include the top-tier LMP2 prototypes, the slightly slower but still formidable LMP3 prototypes, and the production-based GT cars.
Each race in the ELMS season is a multi-hour endurance event, with teams of drivers taking turns behind the wheel of their respective cars. The series has become known for its fiercely competitive racing, with close battles for position and dramatic moments of triumph and heartbreak.
In addition to providing thrilling racing action, the ELMS also serves as a proving ground for new technologies and innovations in the world of endurance racing. Many of the teams and drivers who compete in the ELMS go on to compete in other high-profile racing events, such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the World Endurance Championship.
Overall, the European Le Mans Series is a must-watch for any fan of sports car racing, offering high-speed thrills and edge-of-your-seat excitement throughout the season.
