The 2020 Championnat de France FFSA GT - GT4 France season is the twenty-third season of the French FFSA GT Championship and the third as the French GT4 Cup, a sports car championship created and organised by the Stéphane Ratel Organisation (SRO). The season began on 21 August in Nogaro and ends on 8 November at Lédenon.

Calendar

A 2020 calendar was announced on 29 July 2019 at SRO's annual press conference at the 2019 24 Hours of Spa. However, as a result of the coronavirus crisis SRO had to revise its schedule and an updated calendar was released on 13 May 2020. The season finale at Circuit de Lédenon on 6–8 November was cancelled due to the restrictions caused by COVID-19 pandemic in France and replaced by the competition at Circuit Paul Ricard on 20–22 November.
