The Endurance Teams Championship will highlight the NASCAR Euro Series Finals at Circuit Zolder on October 17–18 with a thrilling battle for the overall title. PK Carsport leads the way heading into its home race on Belgian soil, while the #50 Hendriks Motorsport squad looks to chase Anthony Kumpen’s team down for a high-stakes showdown. But at the Semi-Finals at Autodromo di Vallelunga in Italy, it was the #11 Alumitec Racing team that stormed to victory thanks to brilliant drives by Gianmarco Ercoli in the V8GP championship and Raphael Lessard, who swept both OPEN races. The Canadian organization beat the #24 PK Carsport Chevrolet of Vittorio Ghirelli and Thomas Dombrowski to the line by about 15 seconds.
Rounding out the podium was the #6 Speedhouse Ford driven by Vladimiros Tziortzis in both divisions, underscoring the strong momentum the Cypriot has built with the French team over the past events. The #7 Hendriks Motorsport Ford of Martin Doubek crossed the line in fourth, about 30 seconds adrift of the winning Alumitec Racing team. The #50 Hendriks Motorsport team completed the top-5 ahead of the #19 Club Competition team, who had a great performance at the outfit’s home race at the iconic track just outside Rome. BS+BREMOTION’s #99 Chevrolet of Garrett Lowe and Dominique Schaak lost some ground in the title battle with a seventh-place result in the combined four-race tally, but the German team remained well within striking distance of the championship in Belgium.
PK Carsport’s #24 Chevrolet stands on top of the standings with 209 points through five of the six events in 2026. The #50 Hendriks Motorsport Ford of Jordan O’Brien and Gil Linster follows in second, just 19 points behind the championship leaders. The #11 Alumitec Racing Ford jumped up to third, sitting 21 markers back from the summit. BS+BREMOTION holds fourth after the weekend in Italy with a 28-point gap to the leaders, while the #6 Speedhouse Ford rounds out the top-5, 33 points off the Belgian benchmark.
With double points on the line throughout the NASCAR Euro Series Playoffs in Italy and Belgium, the standings could see another dramatic shakeup at the legendary Circuit Zolder on October 17–18. Four races – two in V8GP and two in OPEN will crown the victor of the unique Endurance Teams Championship that combines every lap across the weekend. The driver combination across both championships in one car completing the most laps in the shortest aggregate time will bank the maximum 80 points, ensuring only one champion will lift the trophy in the woods of Limburg.
