GEDLICH Racing has announced the arrival of a new category, the PTWS Sports Prototypes, which will contest its inaugural season across a pair of events in Iberia.
The Sports Prototypes grid builds upon the success of the LMP3-based Prototype Winter Series, by creating a home for the broad array of bespoke sportscars built for other classes and single-make competitions. Cars from revered manufacturers such as Radical, Revolution, PRC, Nova, Wolf and Praga are among those eligible to take part.
A condensed series, held across consecutive weekends at Portimão and Valencia, will ensure a cost-effective travel itinerary for teams and drivers. The opening round of the PTWS Sports Prototypes will join the GEDLICH Racing 6H of Portimão at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve from 6-7 February. The following week, the Sports Prototypes will have its second and final outing during the Winter Series event at Valencia’s Circuit Ricardo Tormo, from 13-14 February.
At both events, the PTWS Sports Prototypes grid will compete in a pair of 40-minute races with a mandatory pit window. Prior to this, the teams will receive a 55-minute practice session, and a pair of 15-minute qualifying sessions. Single and two-driver line-ups are welcome.
While Radical’s ever-popular SR3 model will compete in its own class, the bulk of the classes will be structured based on engine capacity.
Jann from GEDLICH Racing commented: “Sports Prototype racing is a broad and varied space within motorsport, and the GEDLICH Racing PTWS Sports Prototypes series is designed to put a spotlight on teams and manufacturers beyond the LMP umbrella. The race format and calendar has been designed to minimise cost, maximise enjoyment, and deliver an exciting new option for sportscar racers.

55 minutes private practice + 2*15 minutes qualifying + 2*40 minutes race
FRI 13 FEB – SAT 14 FEB VALENCIA

“We look forward to welcoming an exciting new range of competitors into the Winter Series paddock, and creating a compelling grid of teams from across Europe, who may otherwise not race head-to-head regularly.”
The PTWS Sports Prototypes adds yet more variety, speed and adrenaline to the 2026 Winter Series package, which features thrilling GT, Formula and Prototype racing action. GEDLICH Racing is excited to welcome fans, teams, racing stars and upcoming talents to Portugal and Spain’s greatest racing venues, from January-March.
