 Belgian squad WRT dominates race two at Nogaro.

The 2012 FIA GT1 calendar has been unveiled with several new additions joining the schedule.

Hexis AMR has announced its four drivers for this year’s FIA GT1 World Championship, as the French outfit looks to improve on its runner-up spot in last year’s standings.

China is the headline addition to next season’s FIA GT1 World Championship, after the calendar was released by SRO today.

The 10-date schedule sees the championship take in the brand-new Ordos International Circuit – first used by Superleague Formula earlier this season – in inner Mongolia next September.

 
Michael Bartels and Andrea Bertolini have wrapped up this year’s FIA GT1 Championship, putting the title beyond their rivals in the qualifying race of this weekend’s event at the Potrero de los Funes circuit in Argentina.

The Vitaphone-Maserati pairing finished down in 12th following contact with Christopher Haase's Reiter Lamborghini, but with sole title rivals Darren Turner and Tomas Enge (Young Driver Aston Martin) also failing to score they were now home and hosed.

The Young Driver Aston Martin squad has signed Jose Maria Lopez for this weekend’s World GT1 season finale in Argentina.

The 27-year-old joins Stefan Mucke in the #8 DBR9 in an effort to support team-mates Tomas Enge and Darren Turner who are fighting for the championship.

 Brazilian duo Alexandre Negrao and Enrique Bernoldi have taken victory at their native GT1 World Championship event with a victory at the Interlagos circuit.

The #2 Vitaphone-Maserati had finished fourth in Saturday's qualifying race but made use of a swift pitstop to hunt down and pass the leading car just nine laps from home in Sunday's main event.

 
The #25 Reiter Lamborghini pairing of Ricardo Zonta and Frank Kechele dominated this weekend's GT1 World Championship round at the Navarra circuit, taking pole position and then victory in both the qualifying race and the main event.
