The 2026 DESDER Indianapolis 8 Hour takes place on Saturday 10 October, bringing GT World Challenge America and the Intercontinental GT Challenge to Indianapolis Motor Speedway for eight hours of endurance racing. The 27-car GT3 field features leading drivers and manufacturers from North America and across the world, while several championships will also be decided during the season finale.
Robby Foley will lead the field from pole for Turner Motorsport after edging Ayhancan Güven by just 0.002s in Superpole. A subsequent technical reshuffle altered much of the top 10, leaving the #6 Dollahite Racing Ford alongside Foley on the front row. The race will also decide closely fought GTWC America Pro and Pro-Am championships, while Luca Stolz, Maxime Martin and Laurin Heinrich remain in contention for the IGTC Drivers’ Championship.
