budgets for GT racing 2012?
With the changes in GT racing in recent years (this year) it got me thinking about the affect it would have on teams budgets.
What would be the running cost in the GT1 world championship now that they are using GT3 cars? I would guess about 4 million EUR for 2 cars but that could be way off. Now that some of the top teams have left the Euro GT3 series what are the budgets in that? or the ADAC series? what is best value for money? What about Blancpain series? longer races but budget not much bigger? |

there is not a standard budget because each team has a different situation. Teams that in theory are rich like reiter, this year will run just one car in blancpain and won't run in fia world gt or gt3 if a paying sponsor doesn't appear; other teams like vita4one apparently have a so good economic situation that will let them to run in 2 different competition split in 2 teams (the two 458 italia that will run in blancpain under vita4one italy are however bartels propriety) and to do a long pre season test/driver casting in portimao. So to answering to your question, who knows? maybe a team is able to plan a 2012 season with a budget of 1mln €, some other will do it with more/less money.
For sure a program in WEC for gte official teams like af corse i guess requires not less than 5mln € |
