The 4 Hours of Portimão (also known as 4 Hours of Algarve) is an
Le Mans Series calendar. Since 2017, it is run in 4 hours format, as part of the European Le Mans Series
.
History
The 1000 Kilometres of Algarve was run for the first time in 2009, and was the third round of the
Autódromo do Estoril instead,[3]
and the 1000 km of Algarve hasn't been run since.
In 2017 Portimão took the place of Estoril in the European Le Mans series calendar, in a 4 hour race.[4]
In 2023 with the cancelation of the 4 Hours of Imola for the European Le Mans Series, the Portimão round became a double-header to fill the void,[5] with the race being named 4 Hours of Algarve and 4 Hours of Portimão.
