Manufacturers Cup

6 July at 21:00 (UTC)

The Manufacturers Cup pits the 12 highest-ranked manufacturers against each other, including those from our official partners Toyota, Genesis, and Mazda. Each manufacturer is represented by a team of three drivers, one from each Region of the Online Qualifiers. In Montreal, the drivers from the Americas Region will be competing.

Drivers will be racing alongside their teammates at the World Finals, but this is their chance to show off their skills as individuals.

Drivers to Watch

Angel Inostroza
Known for his steady driving and ability to make strategic decisions during races, he made a shock switch to Subaru after several seasons with Porsche. Will be one to look out for.

Adriano Carrazza
A GTWS legend who is a fast and formidable opponent whether it's online or at a live event. His driving style suits Interlagos which could be considered his 'home track.'

Igor Fraga
Earned the maximum points in the Online Qualifiers and was key in bringing Lexus back to the GTWS. A 'two swords' driver who competes in both virtual and real-world competitions, he will race with the same RC GT3 he drives in the Super GT Series.

Calen Roach
America’s top young talent returns for another season with BMW. Lacks live event experience, but showed glimpses of his ability at last year’s World Finals.

Nations Cup

6 July at 23:30 (UTC)

The Nations Cup, in which drivers compete for their home country/territory, returns to an individual format this year. 12 drivers chosen from the Online Qualifiers will compete across three World Series live events and the World Finals.

In this opening round in Montreal, we will see who is setting the pace and who is just trying to keep up.

Drivers to Watch

Jose Serrano
Won the Nations Cup last year as part of Team Spain. With the switch to an individual championship this season, he is surely one of the favourites. Qualified top of his region in the Online Qualifiers.

Angel Inostroza
Respected by other drivers for his speed, racecraft and sportsmanship. Lost the championship on the final lap at the 2022 Finals, but will be looking for revenge this year.

Kylian Drumont
His driving ability and pace are second to none. While he is yet to win a Nations Cup title, it is surely only a matter of time.

Takuma Miyazono
Knows the high-speed ‘Red Bull X2019 Competition’ used in the Nations Cup like the back of his hand. Back to represent Japan for the first time in two years.
