Spa 24 Jam: Porsche 1-2, Andrew Haryanto finis usai kecelakaan
Porsche merengkuh kemenangan Spa 24 Jam perdana sejak 2010 berkat usaha skuat GPX Racing. Wakil Indonesia, Andrew Haryanto, finis sepuluh besar kelas AM setelah sempat kecelakaan pada paruh awal balapan.
Trio GPX, Kevin Estre, Michael Christensen, dan Richard Lietz, membawa mobil Porsche #20 dengan livery ikonis Gulf finis pertama.
Mereka juga memimpin hasil 1-2 bagi pabrikan Weissach, dengan #998 ROWE di urutan kedua yang diawaki Nick Tandy, Patrick Pilet dan Frederic Makowiecki.
Estre memegang keunggulan 40 detik di depan Tandy saat balapan memasuki satu jam terakhir, tapi Tandy berhasil memangkas jarak sebelum periode Full Course Yellow diberlakukan di sisa 24 menit akibat kecelakaan Benny Simonsen di Pouhon.
Balapan kemudian dilanjutkan dengan sisa waktu 14 menit, tapi tak lama berselang FCY kembali dikeluarkan ketika Klaus Bachler di mobil Dinamic Porsche #54 bersentuhan dengan Rene Rast di mobil WRT Audi R8 #1. Akibat insiden itu, Rast terlempar dari posisi keempat.
Mendekati akhir balapan, kunggulan Estre diperpendek menjadi lima detik tapi mampu bertahan di posisi terdepan dengan selisih 3,347 detik atas Tandy ketika melintasi garis finis.
Peringkat ketiga menjadi milik kru Black Falcon Mercedes AMG #4 dengan trio pembalap Maro Engel, Yelmer Buurman, dan Luca Stolz. Mereka terpaut 17 detik di belakang pemenang, sementara Sainteloc Audi #25 finis keempat berkat usaha dari Markus Winkelhock, Frederic Vervisch, dan Christopher Haase.
Hujan deras dan cuaca buruk yang menyelimuti trek Spa-Francorchamps membuat balapan sempat dihentikan selama hampir enam jam sebelum akhirnya dilanjutkan dengan sisa waktu lima jam.

Andrew finis sepuluh besar kelas AM
Kondisi menantang menjadi pemicu terjadinya banyak insiden, salah satunya dialami pembalap Indonesia, Andrew Haryanto, yang mengalami kecelakaan ketika balapan baru berjalan kurang dari 30 menit.
Setelah melibas tikungan Eau Rouge, Andrew kehilangan kendali di Raidillon dan membentur keras dinding pembatas di sebelah kanan.
Akibat kecelakaan itu, mobil Audi R8 LMS Cup #80 yang ia kendarai mengalami kerusakan parah, terutama di bagian kiri depan dan belakang. Meskipun begitu, Andrew berhasil membawa kembali mobilnya ke pit.
Setelah menjalani perbaikan yang memakan waktu 20 menit, mobil #80 bisa kembali ke lintasan dan perlahan tapi pasti mulai memperbaiki posisi.
Setelah masalah yang menimpa rival kelas AM, Daiko Lazarus Lamborghini Huracan #27, Andrew bersama rekan satu mobilnya, Sun Jingzu, Jeffrey Lee, Yasser Shahin, naik sepuluh besar pada kategori yang dikhususkan untuk pembalap-pembalap amatir tersebut.
Mobil #80 akhirnya menyelesaikan balapan setelah melahap 303 lap di urutan ke-50 keseluruhan dari total 72 kompetitor, tepat satu posisi di depan tim yang sempat diunggulkan, SMP Racing dengan trio pembalap Davide Rigon, Miguel Molina, dan Mikhael Aleshin.
