2011 Auto GP season
Previous: 2010 Next: 2012

The 2011 Auto GP season was the second year of the Auto GP, and the thirteenth season of the former Euroseries 3000. The championship began on 14 May at Monza and finished on 4 September at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, after seven double-header rounds.

The series became part of the World Touring Car Championship meetings and received Eurosport coverage.[1] The series also adopted the Formula One points system for the first race of the weekend, with a consequent change in the lower points-awarding second race.[2] The season champion and the top driver under 21 years of age Kevin Ceccon received a GP2 Series test.[3]

Ombra Racing driver Kevin Ceccon claimed the championship title, taking just one victory on Hungaroring with four other podium placings. Luca Filippi who missed Oshersleben's round due to GP2 Series commitments finished season as runner-up with one win at Brno. Sergey Afanasyev missed Donington Park round because of problems with British visa scored three wins at Budapest, Oshersleben and Valencia, more than any other driver in this season. He finished season on the third position in the standings.
