Corvette took their first victory in the WEC in GTE-Pro.

Great to see an American Corvette beat the best of Europe's best


In a season that has seen the AF Corse GTE PRO Ferraris outpaced in qualifying elsewhere, the red cars found their feet on home ground, with Alessandro Pier Guidi and Antonio Fuoco holding the top two into the final seconds of the session.

The No. 51 Ferrari 488 GTE Evo2 topped the times with a 1m45.270s, the sister car just 0.0058s back.


That was until Nick Tandy finally banged in two flying laps in the No. 64 Chevrolet Corvette C8.R after losing times to track limits earlier in the session.

His effort was good enough to split the Ferraris, just 0.004s better than Fuoco’s best.
