Porsche Motorsport North America has announced the seven-round 2027 Porsche Carrera Cup North America calendar, continuing a tradition of racing at the largest road racing events in North America, highlighted by a debut as a support race at the Rolex 24 At Daytona in January.
The 2027 Porsche Carrera Cup North America calendar features seven of the most recognizable road racing events in the United States, ranging from traditional road course events in conjunction with the IMSA WeatherTech Championship, the world stage in support of Formula 1® rounds at Miami & Austin, plus another highlight appearance at the Grand Prix of Long Beach.
The renewed IMSA contract and the return of the Porsche 911 Cup car (Type 992.2) on
Daytona opener and Formula 1 finale frame 2027 season.
The 2027 season will commence at Daytona International Speedway, 27–29 January, at the famed 24-hour race. It marks the first time that Porsche Carrera Cup North America has raced at Daytona, supporting a race won by Porsche a record 24 times overall.
The championship remains with the IMSA WeatherTech Sports Car Championship for races at Sebring International Raceway and the streets of Long Beach. For the fifth season in a row, the series will return to South Florida for the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix.
Following a summer break, Carrera Cup North America meets up with IMSA endurance rounds at Road America and Road Atlanta before the finale at the Formula 1 U.S. Grand Prix in Austin, Texas. This will be the fifth consecutive year the championship will wrap at Circuit of The Americas.
