2016 saw the first season of the series, with Laurent Couteau winning the championship ahead of Cecep Sugiharto and Koyomi Setou. After the German Special Final heat qualifying session, all three drivers shared the same number of points. This year was considered rather successful with the highest moment being the Spa Superprix, where 56 cars were entered to race. Unfortunately, the race itself was red flagged after just 9 laps after too many accidents. During this season, the engineers worked a lot on the car to give it more power and more grip for 2017. It resulted in massive modifications on the chassis, suspensions, gearbox and engine. 2017 would see the "B-Spec Lupo" race for the first time. At the end of the year, the series joined the AutoReject organization. After 2017, there was a revamp of the series, leaving the AutoReject organization to go solo, and the B-Spec Lupo dropped by the new SEAT Leon, thus being rebranded the SEAT Leon Supercopa.

The SEAT Leon Supercopa, (formerly known as the Lupo GTI Championship and AutoReject GTi), is a single-make racing series using the SEAT Leon TDi. The series is both a support and a feeder to the RWRS and the other AutoReject series.

History

In mid 2015, a little group of German investors contacted Volkswagen's racing department to to purchase 20 Volkswagen Polos formerly used in the ADAC Volkswagen Polo Cup. When the offer was rejected, the company instead offered 20 unsold, race-ready Lupo GTIs, including the necessary spare parts, for a modest amount of money, which the investors agreed.

2016 saw the first season of the series, with Laurent Couteau winning the championship ahead of Cecep Sugiharto and Koyomi Setou. After the German Special Final heat qualifying session, all three drivers shared the same number of points. This year was considered rather successful with the highest moment being the Spa Superprix, where 56 cars were entered to race. Unfortunately, the race itself was red flagged after just 9 laps after too many accidents. During this season, the engineers worked a lot on the car to give it more power and more grip for 2017. It resulted in massive modifications on the chassis, suspensions, gearbox and engine. 2017 would see the "B-Spec Lupo" race for the first time. Pedro Renales and his team Scuderia Vittore won the titles after dominating the season and leaving the opposition speechless. At the end of the year, the series joined the AutoReject organization. After 2017, there was a revamp of the series, leaving the AutoReject organization to go solo, and the B-Spec Lupo dropped by the new SEAT Leon, thus being rebranded the SEAT Leon Supercopa.

In 2018, the series had finally found their identity and started to be more stable.

2019 didn't see any major changes in the series for the first time.

Qualifying and Race format

Qualifying sessions runs for 60 minutes and each race runs for 30 minutes. The same format was used for the 2016 German Special Heats and Finale, where the grid was divided into two heats of 10 cars. The top 4 of each heat advanced to the Finale.
