Iron Lynx Ferraris claimed the top two spots in the GT3 class of
the Italian round of the Le Mans Cup, the second date of the
season. After a hard-fought race, with three outings for the
Safety Car and two Full Course Yellows, Gabriele Lancieri and
Paolo Ruberti took the winner’s laurels, while stable-mates
Doriane Pin and Sarah Bovy finished runners-up.
An intense two-hour battle unfolded on the Monza track, where
Gabriele Lancieri and Paolo Ruberti of Iron Lynx secured the
class win and fourth place overall. The 488 GT3 Evo 2020 #8
was actually third over the finish line, with victory coming
courtesy of the jury’s decisions. During post-race scrutineering,
the GT3 class winner, the Aston Martin #97, was disqualified
and excluded from the standings because its rear wing
exceeded the permitted tolerance. Car #2, second at the
chequered flag, suffered a 30-second penalty for refuelling
outside the pit stop window with the driver change. These
decisions gifted victory to Lancieri and Ruberti, who had also
taken pole, while second place went to teammates Doriane Pin
and Sarah Bovy.
