The 2001 FIA Sportscar Championship was the inaugural season of FIA Sportscar Championship,[1] an auto racing series regulated by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile and organized by International Racing Series Ltd. The series was a continuation of the previous SportsRacing World Cup dating back to 1997. It was open to two categories of sports prototypes, SR1 and SR2, and awarded championships to drivers and teams in each category. A championship for constructors was also established for this season. It began on 8 April 2001 and ended on 16 September 2001 after eight races.
Italian Marco Zadra won the SR1 drivers' championship, while his BMS Scuderia Italia Ferrari secured the teams' and constructors' titles. The SR2 class was led by American Larry Oberto and Swede Thed Björk who drove for SportsRacing Team Sweden. Lola won the constructors' championship in SR2.
Schedule
Despite still sharing regulations with the American Grand Am Road Racing Series, the American series no longer counted toward the new FIA championship. Kyalami also did not return, leaving the calendar strictly European. Catalunya, Monza, Spa, Brno, Donington, Magny-Cours, and the Nürburgring were all carried over from the previous season, joined by the Irish Mondello Park. Monza replaced its former World Cup race with the traditional 1000 km race, adding an endurance event to the calendar. All other races were limited to 2 hours and 30 minutes of duration.
