THE 2024 GTWCEU SEASON IS ON!

The 2024 GT World Challenge Europe - Endurance Cup season officially kicked off on 6 and 7 April at the legendary Paul Ricard circuit in Le Castellet with a 3-hour race. It was at this round that our 2 AF Corse Francorchamps Motors Ferrari 296 GT3s took to the track for the first race of the year. At the wheel of the n°51 car were Alessandro Pier Guidi - Davide Rigon - Alessio Rovera, who crossed the chequered flag in ninth place. In the n°71, Thomas Neubauer - Vincent Abril - David Vidales crossed the line in fifteenth place.

Over the 5.771 kilometres covered at the historic Le Castellet circuit, in the category reserved for professional drivers, the N°51 Ferrari 296 GT3 left its mark on the weekend's racing with top performances that augur well for the rest of the championship. Alessio Rovera put in an exceptional stint and went from strength to strength, gaining six places on the opening lap and securing a place in the top five. Despite anticipating a difficult weekend from the outset, Davide Rigon and Alessandro Pier Guidi showed unfailing commitment throughout the race.

Meanwhile, the N°71 Ferrari 296 GT3 started the season in fifteenth place, despite a good second stint by Thomas Neubauer, who was making his debut as an official Ferrari driver.

Coming soon: The series organised by SRO will be back in the spotlight with the second round of the Endurance Cup, the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps (which is celebrating its centenary this year), scheduled to take place at the historic Belgian circuit on 29 and 30 June. On this occasion, Francorchamps Motors Luxembourg will have the privilege of offering its customers a unique 'Racing' experience! More information will be released shortly, so stay tuned!
