Mirage Racing achieve a race double at FFSA GT4s visit to Spa

That achievement was mirrored by the #7 crew of David Levy and Jodie Sloss who also progressed from P2 on the grid to secure the Am class win at the end. Those results also gave both crews pole position in class for Sundays race.

This time racing within the heat of the afternoon as the cloud cover moved in, a poor start from the #7 car of Vaintrub saw them drop down the order to run just in front of its sister car of Levy in third as the pack poured through Eau Rouge for the first time. A much cleaner start than in race one quickly saw the pack settle down for this concluding race of the weekend.

As the race neared the start of the pit window, the #7 car was holding a comfortable P2 overall whilst the #5 car had run as high as P4 but had dropped back slightly against faster crews.

Stops over and the #7 car of Safronov had come out into third whilst the #5 car had stayed out for as long as possible as the young Scot emerged P9 overall but still in the lead on Am. A Mercedes GT suffered engine failure directly in front of the #7 car at the top of the circuit and that Full Course Yellow/Safety Car then neutralised the race again for at least half of the then twenty minutes that were left to go.

That left a six-minute dash to the flag and whilst the #7 car again finished second to the #10 Ginetta, that car was again penalised with race Control dropping it to P4 overall in the timing screen with the #5 car of Sloss also hanging on to claim a P2 finish in class this time around.
