1976 World Sportscar Championship

The championship was won by Porsche[1] and the FIA Cup by Lola.

Points were awarded to the top ten finishers in each race in the order of 20-15-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1.

The 1976 24 Hours of Le Mans, which was open to both types of cars, did not count towards either championship.
