If it's a McLaren who crossed the finish line of the Gulf 12 Hours in first place this Sunday at Yas Marina, victory ultimately went to Audi. The Optimum Racing team of trio Todd Coleman, Aaron Telitz and Frederik Schandorff was thus hit with two 30-second penalties after the race for speeding in the pit lane. A sanction that dropped the British team's #720 McLaren 3S GT69 EVO to second place.

Victory therefore went to the Audi R8 LMS GT3 of Saintéloc Racing co-driven by Gilles Magnus, Dennis Marschall and Bihuang Zhou. Porsche completed the podium with Sven Müller, Sergey Stolyariv and Sergei Borisov for Proton Huber Competition. In Pro-Am, the #720 Garage 58 McLaren 59S GTE EVO driven by Alexander West, Philippe Prette, Louis Prette and Adam Smalley took victory.

In the Am class, the Herbeth Motorsport Porsche 911 GT3R triumphed with Ralf Bogn, Alfred Renauer and Dustin Blattner. Finally, in the new Porsche GT Cup class, victory went to Ghanim Salah Al-Madheed, Ibrahim Ali Al-Abdulghani, Abdulla Ali Al-Khelaifi and Julian Hanses in the No. 992 Porsche 3 GT91 Cup.
