The event features the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship for exotic prototype and GT race cars, in their only north-of-the-border stop. A world-class field of drivers pilot the globe’s top marques such as Aston Martin, Audi, BMW, Corvette, Delta Wing, Ferrari, Ford, Honda, Mazda and Porsche on Canadian Tire Motorsport Park’s classic, challenging road course.
Also in action over the four-day event are the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge, Mazda Prototype Lites presented by Cooper Tires, IMSA Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge USA by Yokohama, SCCA Pro Racing Battery Tender Mazda MX-5 Cup presented by BFGoodrich and the Nissan Micra Cup.
In addition to the great racing on-track, the Mobil 1 SportsCar Grand Prix features lots of cool things away from the track for fans to see and do, such as team tech talks and an autograph session with WeatherTech SportsCar Championship drivers and teams, and lots of vendors selling authentic race-related merchandise.
