Porsche Sprint Challenge: Clément Loeul and François Chotard dominate the competition in Burgundy

The fast and technical Dijon-Prenois circuit was the scene of a race weekend of rare intensity. Between close time trials and fierce battles in the pack, the drivers of the Porsche 992 GT3 Cup and GT4 RS cars delivered a memorable spectacle.

Cup Series: Clément Loeul's irresistible solo run

From the qualifying sessions onward, the density of the Cup Series field was evident in the incredibly close margins. In Q1, Clément Loeul (Ancel Motorsport) snatched pole position from Victor Blugeon by a mere two hundredths of a second. Confirming his outstanding form, Loeul repeated his performance in the second session.

In the race, the pole-sitter proved unstoppable. In the first heat, despite constant pressure from Blugeon—who finished second just 1.536 seconds behind—Loeul masterfully converted his pole position into a victory. The second race turned into a true demonstration of strength for the Ancel Motorsport driver, who delivered a flawless solo performance. Behind him, the action was provided by César Vandewoestyne and Ludovic Loeul (the winner's father), who crossed the finish line separated by only 25 hundredths of a second. In the Master category, Marc Vanwysberghe distinguished himself brilliantly by winning Race 2 in a solo effort.

Endurance Series: François Chotard's tire feat

The qualifications of theEndurance The series highlighted the balance of power between the cornering agility of the GT3 Cup cars and the top speed of the GT4 RS. But in the race, one man eclipsed the competition: François Chotard. Taking the lead on the third lap of the first race, he secured his first solo victory.

Chotard completed his masterpiece in the second race, once again winning from pole position. This feat was all the more remarkable given that the Chotard Team driver only used one of the two permitted sets of tires! Behind them, the Carminati/Verza duo secured second place, while in the GT4 RS category, the Rempp Racing and CG Motorsport crews engaged in intense battles right up to the checkered flag.
