Arthur Rougier dominated the first round of the Esports GT Pro Series, contested at Assetto Corsa Competizione, last night as part of the Monza meeting.
The French driver, lined up in a Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo from the Emil Frey Racing structure, took the advantage at the start over pole sitter Dani Juncadella (Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo – AKKA-ASP), the latter taking the lead just before the burst of pit stops.
The Spaniard, however, made a small mistake a little over a quarter of an hour from the finish, giving Rougier the opportunity to get in the wake of the Mercedes-AMG, and overtake at the first chicane.
The order will no longer change, with Rougier winning overall and in the Pro category, offering three points to the Swiss team in the real Teams ranking. Juncadella and Nicklas Nielsen (Ferrari 488 GT3 – Iron Lynx) completed the podium and scored 2 and 1 point for their team.
In Silver, Ryuichiro Tomita (Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo – Team WRT) wins ahead of Ezequiel Perez Companc (Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo – Madpanda Motorsport) and Benjamin Hites (Ferrari 488 GT3 – Rinaldi Racing), the three drivers scoring 3, 2 and 1 point for their respective teams in the Team ranking in the Silver category.
