Still 6 cars in the same lap with three hours of racing left to be completed. Rutronik Porsche leads ahead of #63 Lamborghini, the two ROWE BMW and the two AF Corse Francorchamps Ferrari.

Rutronik Racing Porsche takes the lead

Alessio Picariello in the #96 Porsche 911 GT3 R leapfrogged the #63 GRT Grasser Racing Team Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 and moved into the lead of the race thanks to a well-timed pitstop before a Full Course Yellow. The Rutronik Racing Porsche is leading the CrowdStrike 24 Hours of Spa with a gap of 4.352 seconds over Jordan Pepper.

Sven Müller (Porsche 911 GT3 R #96): "It's going quite well for us, we're among the front runners. We made it through the night without any contact with opponents, without penalties and without the slightest technical problem. The grip level improved more and more in the morning hours, which made our Porsche 911 GT3 R even better to drive. If we can continue to have a flawless race, we should be able to achieve a good result." Source: Porsche
