British LMP3 Cup
The LMP3 Cup Championship (previously known as the Prototype Cup) is a British-based sports car racing endurance series, endorsed by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest. The championship is designed as an initial step on the ladder to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, as well as providing further opportunities for teams to run the increasingly popular LMP3 specification cars. An initial race was held at Snetterton Circuit on 8/9 October 2016, ahead of a 12-race season in 2017, featuring five rounds in the United Kingdom and one at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium. Following the low turn out of cars for the previous seasons, it was decided by Championship Organisers Bute Motorsport that they would shift its focus to its more successful sister championship, the GT Cup for 2019.

Rules The championship is open to LMP3 cars which are A ...
