Reporting from race at Hungaroring (live report)

Coverage of the final race of the 2026 Porsche Sprint Challenge Central Europe series at the Hungaroring on October 8–11, 2026. We’re bringing you continuously updated coverage of the entire event.

Team Šenkýř Motorsport at PSCCE Hungaroring 2026

The Šenkýř Motorsport team will be competing primarily for the title in the 2026 PSCCE series.

Our rookie, Matyáš Faiereisl, is currently leading both the sprint and endurance class standings after five of the six PSCCE 2026 races. So, at the Hungaroring on October 8–11, 2026, in the final race of this one-make series, he’ll be fighting for the best possible finish. Richard Gonda will also be joining him on the grid for the endurance race.

Pavel Bouška won’t have much time to relax either. He’s currently in second place in the overall Masters category driver standings, so with a little luck, he could climb to the top spot. Erik Janiš will take turns with him in the endurance race.

Bouška, Pavel (CZ)

Pavel started joining us at trackday events with his Porsche and soon decided to become part of our BE A RACE DRIVER project. Thanks to hard work, perseverance and a passion for motorsport, he has gradually developed into a fast and confident driver who now successfully takes part with us in several racing series. As part of our Classic program, Pavel also competed in the very demanding 24h Classic race at the Nürburgring in the BMW M3 E30 during the 2025 season. With his current Lamborghini Huracan Supertrofe Evo II, he participates in all our race tests and the Endless Summer program, Carbonia Cup races, and with a racing driver's license, he has already tried out two races of the International Czech Circuit Championship and the Porsche 992 Cup Central Europe races.

Faiereisl, Matyáš (CZ)

As a young driver, Matyas will compete in the overall classification and in the Rookies standings for drivers under 25. His journey toward a racing career began two years ago with his first sessions in a BMW M2 Trackday Evo. In the 2025 season, he moved to the new BMW M4 GT4 G82, with which he started his very first race ever in the Carbonia Cup. At the end of the 2025 season came his debut — and immediately his first pole position — in a Czech Championship race in Brno, followed by three wins in the final round of the series at Balaton in Hungary. Matyas already tried the Porsche during free practice for the final PSCCE 2025 race in Brno and impressed with his speed.

The Porsche Sprint Challenge Central Europe enters its eighth season in 2026. The championship will feature six race weekends at some of Central Europe’s most prestigious circuits, including the Formula 1 venues of the Red Bull Ring and the Hungaroring.

Each race weekend consists of two 25-minute sprint races and one 60-minute endurance race. All 18 races can be contested either individually or by a pair of drivers, and thanks to the various classifications, the series offers competitive opportunities for drivers of all experience levels.

Furthermore, based on results so far, our drivers are contending for the top spots in the overall standings, placing us at the forefront of this year's championship.
