Exciting duels at Spa

In the first third of the Spa 24 Hours, the spectators at the circuit witnessed thrilling fights for positions and many shifts in the standings. After eight hours, the top 20 are close together, including three teams from Audi Sport customer racing. Best Audi R8 LMS at the eight-hour mark is number 25 of Audi Sport Team Saintéloc with Patric Niederhauser at the wheel in 10th place. Number 30 of Team WRT lies in 16th place, followed by number 46 of Audi Sport Team WRT. The number 32 Audi Sport Team WRT dropped back in the evening due to a puncture and occupies 27th place.

Audi Sport Team Tresor suffered an undeserved setback early on in the Spa 24 Hours. Audi Sport drivers Christopher Haase and Mattia Drudi and their teammate Luca Ghiotto dropped to the rear of the field in the early stages due to a puncture. Later, contact with a competitor increased the gap again. That’s why the number 12 Audi R8 LMS has been withdrawn. Late in the evening, the Audi R8 LMS #11 from Team Tresor by Car Collection and also the #10 from Boutsen Racing had to end the race early after accidents.
