GT Cup Silverstone 2025 Preview: Your Full Guide to This Weekend’s GT Cup 100

The 2025 GT Cup championship arrives at Silverstone Circuit, the home of British motorsport, this weekend. This Sunday, we will see the return of the 100-minute endurance race, an added challenge for the teams as they race their way around the GP layout.

Going into this weekend’s GT Cup 100, Paddock Motorsport is at the top of the standings, narrowly ahead of Topcats Racing by six points. The championship leaders will be hoping to extend their advantage after a tricky start to the Snetterton weekend, where Mark Smith bounced back with two wins on Sunday. With the second half of the season now underway, every point will be crucial in this year’s title fight.

Also at Silverstone are the GB3 and GB4 championships, which are headlining this weekend’s event. There will also be the Radical Cup, the Porsche Club Championship, and the Boxster Cup competing this weekend.

At Silverstone last year, Paddock Motorsport dominated the weekend, taking wins in all three races of the weekend. Drivers Ian Loggie and Richard Neary in their Mercedes GT3 were no match for their competitors across the weekend. Looking at this season, the team could repeat their success.
