Reigning Blancpain Sprint Pro Cup champion Stuart Leonard got his 2018 season off to a flying start by winning the prestigious Bathurst 12 Hours on his first attempt. The 26-year-old Briton along with fellow Blancpain champion Robin Frijns (NED) plus Dries Vanthoor (BEL) scored a brilliant win in the annual Australian event.
The qualifying race for the Zolder round of the Blancpain GT Series, probably the closest race of the season thus far, was won by the #17 Team WRT Audi of Robin Frijns and Stuart Leonard.
