Road America Moves 2027 Motul SportsCar Endurance Grand Prix Back One Week

Organizers say the date change will ease a crowded Wisconsin summer schedule and give fans and teams more time to plan.

Overview

  • IMSA and Road America announced Tuesday that the Motul SportsCar Endurance Grand Prix will be held August 5–8, 2027, one week later than originally scheduled.
  • The event will keep its four-day format and remain headlined by the six-hour Motul race, which is part of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and the five-race IMSA Michelin Endurance Cup.
  • Advance ticket holders will have their purchases automatically honored for the new dates, and the venue is keeping a limited-time advance four-day price available.
  • Officials said the shift reduces overlap with other major Wisconsin events, including the nearby EAA AirVenture, and follows record attendance for this year’s first six-hour Road America race, IMSA President John Doonan reported.
  • Support series expected to return include the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge and Porsche Carrera Cup North America, though the new date creates a clash with the DTM round at Zandvoort that could affect some drivers’ schedules.
