The 2026 GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup finale takes place at Portimão, Portugal. The timing page is designed to help fans keep track of the full field as well as the two entries attracting particular attention this weekend. Data is attributed on the page to SRO Motorsports Group / Swiss Timing; F1LivePulse does not present it as the official timing service.
Follow Verstappen and Rossi across the field
Searching for “Verstappen vs Rossi live timing”? The page makes it easy to find both highlighted cars, but this is not a conventional one-on-one contest. The Endurance Cup brings multiple GT3 manufacturers together in a shared field, divided into classes. Cars are driven by teams of drivers who take turns during the race, so the person behind the wheel can change over the course of the event.
Verstappen is entered in the #3 Verstappen Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3, sharing it with Ben Barnicoat and Chris Lulham. Rossi is associated with the #46 WRT BMW entry. Their positions can be compared in the context of the overall order and their respective class standings, while remembering that each car’s race is a team effort.

What you can follow on the live timing page
The classification displays every car’s overall position and class position, along with its number and current driver. Lap and sector timing help you follow how entries are progressing, while the race-status information gives useful context as the session develops. A LAST/BEST switch lets you choose which lap-time view to display, and a race-control area lists the latest official messages.
The #3 and #46 are pinned alongside the classification on desktop and above it on smaller screens, with highlighted rows to make them easier to locate. That means you can keep an eye on the two entries without losing sight of the wider race picture.
During a healthy live session, the page refreshes at around two-second intervals. Live data can be delayed, and uninterrupted updates are not guaranteed: if the feed is delayed, the page indicates this and retains the last known results. If no session is underway, it shows the latest available results with a note, so a quiet page does not necessarily mean the event has no timing information available.
When is the Portimão race?
The three-hour race is scheduled for Saturday, 17 October 2026, starting at 17:00 local time in Portugal and the UK, with a scheduled finish at 20:00. Friday, 16 October, includes FP1, FP2 and qualifying. The schedule may change; the event timetable and driver line-up are also covered in this race-weekend guide.
The live timing page can be useful across sessions, not just during the three-hour race. Check it while track running is underway to follow the classification and the available timing information. When there is no session live, the page’s note and latest available results help clarify what you are viewing.
