Friday, January 10, 2025
Fielding another impressive grid of sixty-four mixed class entries, this year’s entry sees three Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT3 Evo’s entered – two from the Belgian based Comtoyou Racing team and another from the Asian based Earl Bamber Motorsport team.
With track action starting way back on Monday with private testing, officially timed track action didn’t start until today with Free Practice preceding three qualifying sessions per class of entry even though all three Aston’s would be running with a four-driver line up.
The nett result from Qualifying was that the #40 Comtoyou Racing AMR of Jamie Day Kobe Pauwels, Matiss Lismont and Tom Van Rompuy was the pick of the three as they will be starting the race from P16 overall / P5 within their own Pro-Am class.
