  • This Race 1 at Nogaro was full of pitfalls, starting with the weather. While a few drops appeared just before the start, the teams had to quickly make a choice regarding the tires. And those who bet on the rain were right, like Chazel Technologie Course with its Alpine A110 GT4 EVO No. 33 that Lorens Lecertua quickly placed in the leading group.
  • The appearance of the Safety Car from the first moments of the race therefore allowed the others to catch up. This shook up the rankings somewhat without changing the race. It was when the driver changed, towards the middle of the event, that everything changed. A boon for AV Racing which did well to find itself at the front of the peloton.
  • Second at the wheel of the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS CS No. 99 at the time of the restart 12 minutes from the end, Rudy Servol immediately attacked Rodolphe Wallgren (Audi R8 LMS GT4 No. 111-CSA Racing) in front of him to take the lead of the general . From then on, Mateo Salomone's teammate (entered in Am) was able to go solo to the checkerboard to sign his first overall victory since 2022 at… Nogaro in the company of Nicolas Cheers.
  • In Silver, victory went to the Lorens Lecertua-Mateo Herrero duo who were able to recover after a trip through the gravel at the start of the race. Finally in Pro-Am, Rodolphe Wallgren and Gastelli won.
