In GT3, the Classic Ferrari for sale 296 Evo nº17 from the Kessel Racing team co-driven by Lorenzo Innocenti and David Fumanelli won after resisting attacks from another Prancing Horse car, the AF Corse n°51 of Alessandro Cozzi and Eliseo Donno. L'Aston Martin Vantage AMR No. 10 of Racing Spirit of Leman, driven by the duo Philipp Sager and Valentin Hasse-Clot, completed the podium.
