A simply breathtaking race in Monza saw victory go to Pedro Lamy
and Gabriele Gardel in the nr 11 Larbre Competition Ferrari 550
Maranello, heading a pack of four Maserati MC 12 cars. The two
Vitaphone cars were second and third, followed by the JMB duo, with
the nr 16 pole sitter fourth, Peter having led the race for much of the
first half.
Throughout the 500 km, the competition was extremely close, with
the leading three crossing the line separated by just 1.5 seconds.
The Corvette C5R of GLPK Carsport looked like creating a surprise
in its first ever race, running second with just ten laps to go, until a
broken oil line took the yellow car out. But its potential has been
proved.
In GT2, the Gruppe M Porsche of Lieb and Rockenfeller was
victorious, ahead of their team-mates Collard and Sugden.
Ebimotors finished third, with Racz and Venc fourth for Machanek
Racing.
