Red Bull Ferrari wins GT World Sprint Cup season finale in Barcelona

This year’s GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup season ends with a Ferrari victory. Thierry Vermeulen and Ben Green came out on top in the Emil Frey Racing Ferrari 296 GT3, winning from pole position!

Second place went to Thomas Neubauer and Arthur Leclerc in the AF Corse Ferrari. The two Ferraris were separated by 4.454 seconds after an hour of racing.

Ariel Levi and Andrea Frassineti, in the Tresor Attempto Racing Audi, rounded off the top three. The Attempto duo also claimed victory in the Silver Cup.

The safety car was deployed on the opening lap following several collisions that completely shuffled the order of the field. David Pittard, Alex Malykhin and Matisse Lismont were forced to retire. Ricardo Feller, who had already been crowned champion, was caught up in a pile-up at the first corner and dropped to the back of the field.

Following the pit stop window, a neutralisation was declared to recover Sven Müller’s Porsche, which had come to a standstill during the pit stop window.
