The 24H Series Middle East (formerly known as the Middle East Trophy from 2022–2025) is a sports car racing and touring car racing series developed by Creventic and with approval from the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), based in the Middle East. The races in the series are contested with GT3-spec cars, GT4-spec cars, sports cars, 24H-Specials, like silhouette cars, TCR Touring Cars, TCX cars and TC cars. The calendar consists of rounds ranging from 6-hour to 24-hour races.
Creventic
[edit]The Dutch agency Creventic is the organiser and promoter of the series. Their goals are to organise races with "low costs, a convivial atmosphere with teams and drivers from all over the world and fair competition on the track." In co-operation with the Dutch National Racing Team (DNRT) – one of the biggest motorsport organisations of the Benelux – they organised the inaugural Dubai 24 Hour in 2006.[1] Creventic is also the organiser of the 24H Series and the Touring Car Endurance Series.
History
[edit]On 23 September 2022, Creventic announced the formation of the Middle East Trophy, a championship separate from the European leg of the 24H Series, with the first race taking place on 30 November.[2][3] On 23 September 2023, it was announced that the series would return for the 2023–24 season.[4][5] On 18 June 2025, the series announced that it would expand to Southeast Asia with a round at Sepang International Circuit in Sepang, Malaysia, while also changing its name to 24H Series Middle East.[6]
