The Supercup was a West German auto racing series created by the ADAC in 1986 as a replacement for the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft (DRM). The series used Group C category sports prototypes identical to the ones used in the World Sportscar Championship, yet running nearly exclusively within West Germany. The series lasted for four years before it was cancelled following the 1989 championship.[1]
The series was initially sponsored by sport auto magazine during its inaugural season,[2] then replaced by Würth the following two years.[3][4] Television network Sat.1 sponsor the championship's final year.[5]
