Championship Drama: All Four Titles to Be Decided at Carrera Cup Finale in Hockenheim

The curtain is set to fall on the 2025 Porsche Sixt Carrera Cup Deutschland at Hockenheimring, where every championship title — drivers, ProAm, rookies, and teams — will be decided during a high-stakes season-ending doubleheader. Fans are gearing up for a weekend of fierce racing as all contenders go all-in for glory on German tarmac.

Key Takeaways

• Four championships — overall, ProAm, Rookie, and Teams — to be settled in the last two races.

• Alessandro Ghiretti and Robert de Haan locked in a tight points battle for the overall title.

• Michael Schrey poised to secure the ProAm championship.

• Three-way rookie showdown led by Sacha Norden.

• Hockenheimring hosts the finale, continuing a legacy that began in 1932.

• Synthetic fuel powers all cars, marking a step in motorsport sustainability.

Final Showdown: Ghiretti vs. De Haan for the Title

In the overall drivers’ championship, Frenchman Alessandro Ghiretti leads by just 12 points over Dutch rival Robert de Haan after 14 out of 16 races. With a maximum of 50 points still available from Saturday and Sunday’s races, the climax could come down to the final lap. A razor-thin margin raises the prospect of late drama, as Ghiretti aims for a double title after clinching the Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup, while de Haan seeks to continue the momentum that propelled him back into contention at the Red Bull Ring.

Podium Contenders and Hot Chases

While Ghiretti and de Haan focus on the crown, the battle for third is equally intense. Huub van Eijndhoven and Flynt Schuring, both Dutch, are jockeying for final podium honors, with potential upsets from Ariel Levi, Theo Oeverhaus, and Janne Stiak. The mathematical possibilities ensure the fight is open until the checkered flag falls.

ProAm: Schrey’s to Lose

Michael Schrey has been dominant in the ProAm category, winning half the races this season and holding a substantial 39-point lead over Ahmad Alshehab. With only two races remaining, Alshehab faces a tough challenge to force the contest into Sunday and keep his slim hopes alive.

Rookie Battle: Norden Leads A Tricolor Charge

A trio of young talents — Sacha Norden, Joseph Warhurst, and Matheus Ferreira — remain in contention for Rookie of the Year honors. Norden, riding high after recent podiums, maintains a 17-point cushion over Warhurst, with Ferreira needing a stellar weekend to stake his claim.

Teams’ Title: France vs. Netherlands

The race for team supremacy is set to mirror national pride, as Schumacher CLRT and GP Elite, representing France and the Netherlands, go head-to-head. With 90 points available, the lead could shift dramatically across both races, leaving the team championship wide open until the final checkered flag.

Hockenheimring: Sprint Finale at a Historic Venue

The Hockenheimring’s storied past — from its 1932 origins through constant evolution — offers a fitting backdrop for a modern motorsport showdown. The event will mark another step for sustainability as all competitors power their Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars with fully synthetic fuel, reflecting ongoing commitment to reducing carbon emissions.
