The Pirelli GT4 America championship rolls into VIRginia International Raceway from July 18th to 20th for rounds six and seven of the 2025 season. The championship battle has tightened in every class, with manufacturers and teams locked in fierce competition as the season reaches its crucial midpoint.
Following a physically demanding weekend at Sebring International Raceway in the unforgiving Florida heat, drivers in the Silver, Pro-Am, and Am categories now turn their focus to the high-speed esses, blind corners, and flowing rhythm of VIR. This weekend will once again feature over 100 race cars across six SRO America series, delivering enthralling on-track action, immersive fan experiences, and open paddock access throughout the event.
After wrapping up a major global event at Spa-Francorchamps, BMW continues to control the Global GT4 Manufacturers standings, extending their advantage with 900 points. Porsche and Toyota now sit tied in second with 620 points each, while Mercedes-AMG holds third with 531 points.
