The European Endurance Prototype Cup will only be open to Nova Proto NP02 cars in 2025, a significant change compared to prior years. A separate Bronze Cup for drivers with an FIA Bronze rating will also be newly introduced.[2]
The LMP3 cars previously racing in the European Endurance Prototype Cup are scheduled to be placed in their own category in 2025, currently known under the pseudonym "Project 2025".[3] These plans would see drivers compete in three separate classes based on their FIA ratings: the Pro Cup for Platinum- and Gold-rated drivers, the Silver Cup for Silver-rated drivers and the Bronze Cup for Bronze-rated drivers.[2]
The Ultimate GT Endurance Cup will be open to GT3, GT4, single-make series (Porsche Carrera Cup, Ferrari Challenge, Lamborghini Super Trofeo) and TCR cars.[4] Its number of different classes will be reduced in 2025: drivers will be competing in four classes numbered from UCS1 to UCS4, meaning the separate Porsche Cup and UCS Light classes will be discontinued.[2]
The Ultimate GT-Sprint Cup is open to GT3, GT4, single-make series (Porsche Carrera Cup, Ferrari Challenge, Lamborghini Super Trofeo) and TCR cars.[5] It will consist of the same UCS1-UCS4 classes seen in the GT Endurance Cup, as well as separate classes for the Porsche Cup and the Ferrari Challenge.[2]
The Hoosier Formula Cup, formerly known as the Ultimate Formula Cup, will be open to Tatuus F3R T318 cars powered by either Alfa Romeo or Renault engines on 13-inch Hoosier tyres. There will no longer be any classes catering to Formula Renault or Formula 4 machinery.[2]
