GRRL! SUMMARY:
- RENEE GRACIE, the 2025 AM-class champion stepping up to ProAm with Ferrari 296 GT3, got caught in Turn 1 sandwich contact from P7 grid, dropped to 13th before recovering to hand off in 8th.
- Co-driver Davison qualified P4, then pushed hard through changing conditions—drifting the Ferrari sideways—to snatch P7 ProAm on final lap pass of Astuti after first-lap incident recovery.
- Race 2 disaster struck when Davison lost it at Turn 1 start, rejoined tail-end, then suffered steering damage from late-race contact after 17 minutes, forcing retirement despite top-five pace potential.
- OnlyFans Racing Team showed genuine speed across practice and qualifying sessions, with Davison’s 1:40.358 securing P4 grid and wet-weather specialist GRACIE posting 1:49.791 in damp Q2 for P7.
UPCOMING:
- GT World Challenge Australia – The Bend, May 8-10, 2026
