Three straight nominations confirm the PVGP’s place among the world’s premier historic motorsport events.
PITTSBURGH, PA – For the third consecutive year, the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix has been named a finalist for Motorsport Event of the Year at the prestigious International Historic Motoring Awards (IHMA), joining six other outstanding events from around the world.
The PVGP earned the honor in 2024 and 2025, and its return to the shortlist in 2026 reinforces its standing among the world’s most respected historic motorsport events.
“Being recognized once is an incredible honor, but three consecutive nominations tell us that we’re doing something right,” said Dan DelBianco, PVGP Executive Director. “This isn’t a one-time achievement or a fluke. It’s a wonderful confirmation of the quality and consistency of our event and the extraordinary work of our volunteers, racers, sponsors and car clubs.”
This year’s finalists include the Grand Prix de Monaco Historique, Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, Circuit des Remparts d’Angoulême and WeatherTech Vintage Weekend at Road America.
“What makes this recognition even more meaningful is that we’re a volunteer-driven organization with a charitable mission,” DelBianco added. “We’re competing on the world stage while raising funds for individuals with autism and intellectual and developmental disabilities here in western Pennsylvania. That’s something our entire Pittsburgh community can be proud of.”
