In addition to the cultural contest, open to any fan who wishes to win an exclusive kit of race products and pairs of credentials for the upcoming category stages in the national territory, Brazilian virtual drivers are now celebrated in a short but intense competition due to the prize: a trip to the temple of endurance racing to witness 24 hours of pure motorsport up close.
The competition is based on an open lobby (room) on iRacing that will be available from May 29 to June 4, in 3 time windows: 12:00 to 16:00, 16:00 to 20:00, and 20:00 to 00:00. Interested parties must fill out the official form available on the official Porsche Cup Brasil website (https://www.porschegt3cup.com.br/) and on the official F1BC league website (https://www.f1bc.com/race-the-world-le-mans-2026/).
The dynamic from the open lobby is as follows: the 40 best times registered on the Circuit de la Sarthe, from May 29 at 12:00 until June 4 at 23:59, will be recruited for the main race of the event on June 5 at 21:00, Brasília time. At this time there will be a 20-minute qualifying session followed by the race, lasting 45 minutes, equal to the official race. Both the car and track setups will be locked in all activities.
The broadcast takes place on the official Porsche Cup Brasil YouTube channel, and on the Acelerados channel, a partner of the action.

The race winner will be invited by Porsche Cup Brasil C6 Bank to travel to Le Mans on June 9, 2026, with tickets, accommodation, and credentials guaranteed by the category, and will watch the 24h paddock track activities on June 10, 11, and the race on June 13.
This initiative is aligned with Porsche AG (global), which intends to increasingly invest in virtual motorsport worldwide. It is worth noting that Porsche Cup Brasil C6 Bank is a pioneer in interfacing with virtual motorsport, having promoted numerous championships whose winners had opportunities to race on real tracks. The highlight of this program was the Santa Catarina native Jeff Giassi, Endurance champion of the Porsche C6 Bank Carrera Cup in 2021 alongside Enzo Elias, who this season is competing in his first full sprint championship in the category (he is third in the championship after two stages and won race 2 of the opening stage at Interlagos).
What he said:
“The Porsche Cup Brasil C6 Bank has a tradition of promoting virtual motorsport and valuing Brazilian talent on the tracks. In line with Porsche’s global vision, we were already investing in the eSports platform before the pandemic, which gave greater visibility to these competitions. Our category’s unprecedented race at Le Mans is the perfect opportunity to reaffirm this commitment and provide an immersive experience for the winner of our race at the biggest endurance motorsport event in the world.”
Dener Pires, promoter of Porsche Cup Brasil C6 Bank
