This week, the B2O Blancpain Sprint Series heads to the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari, a track most known for its F1 history (I know, an interesting F1 track located in Italy?! What!?!). Despite being located close to the Italian town of Imola, for most of it's years, the Grand...

We have quite a conundrum this week for league. The iRacing Official Blancpain Sprint Series is taking on Sebring Raceway, a track that historically provided some fantastic racing for the B2O Blancpain League. However, due to technical issues postponing the 6 Hours of the Glen two months ago, we...
Closing in on the mid-point of the season brings us to Belgium, and the famous Spa-Francorchamps!
Last week, everyone locked in their points scoring car for the season, however, with a team event taking place just under 12 hours after Friday's checkered flag, we understand that some people may...
My apologies for being super late with this! Tonight takes the Band of Others Blancpain Sprint Series to Suzuka, Japan!!
I included a track vote this week because of the fun that we have had in the past racing different variations of this track. (I excluded "Suzuka - West" because we ran that...
Its just another short jaunt (4.5 hrs) from Watkins Glen, New York to this week's race at Lime Rock Park in Salisbury Connecticut! This small 1.5 mile circuit should provide some really close racing! The track has only seven turns (simply named; [T1-2] BigBend, the Left Hander, the Right Hander...
It's just a short trip from Watkins Glen, NY across the border to Montreal for round number three of the Band of Others Blancpain Sprint Series! The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Quebec, Canada is well know for its long straights and thirteen tight turns. The track is a mesh of "street circuit"...
Tomorrow takes us to New York and the 5.43km (3.40 mi) Watkins Glen International circuit! Originally built in 1958 for Formula 1, the track featured 8 corners, including the infamous "Big Bend". However, the track was modified in 1971 to its more current layout, eliminating Big Bend for a large...
Due to someones sick sense of humor, a clerical error or just utter stupidity, the Blancpain Sprint Series kicks off Season 3 2017 with a fizzle at Le Mans.
Let's face it, Le Mans is an excellent track but does anyone want to spend more time here after putting in over a month getting ready for...
Whoops, sorry guys! Super late on this one...
We're heading off to the Nürburgring tonight, so I guess there is nothing else to really say except...

After the usual world travels, the Band of Others' Blancpain Sprint Series season is winding down, and the travel distances are shrinking! It was just a two hour drive, assuming you bypass London (duh), up the M40 from Brands Hatch to Silverstone!

Tonight the Band of Others Blancpain Sprint Series visits Brands Hatch Circuit located just outside of West Kingston in Kent, England.
A quick yet narrow and somewhat technical track, racing should be close and competitive.
As it's early spring the chances of inclement weather are quite high...
I'm all for continuing the league as usual, however, since this butts up against an iRacing Endurance Event, I wondered if everyone would like to do a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (991) @ the Nürburgring Gesamtstrecke 24h in the regular league format? Regular 60 minute qualifying session, followed by a 3...
