The latter, forced to run at a senatorial pace like all his rivals, was unable to respond to the new leader whose team is carrying out an excellent operation in the championship.

The L'Auto Leclerc crew climbs onto the 2nd step of the podium with a lap ahead of the 29th CTF Delta Chandioux with Paul Levet at the controls at the checkered flag.

As for the No. 80 (Continental Racing), in the lead for almost the first 60 minutes before being the victim of a road trip, it moved up from 12th to 4th place, winning the category in the process. Pro/Am.

Finally, it was Fast Kukki Racing's No. 50 Lamera, 15th in the general classification, which won among the gentlemen.
