This set-up a two-horse race between Habsburg and the #38 JOTA car of Stevens, which was decided in WRT’s favour after its pit crew completed a quicker stop than the Le Mans-winning squad to send Habsburg out on track in first position. “We just tried to follow our strategy, stay calm, we knew it would be a race which was quite demanding for the tyres and difficult to overtake the GTEs.
