Review: BES 2013 Review

The 2013 Blancpain Endurance Series validated its self as the best GT3 based endurance race series with huge grids at all five rounds and 65 cars on the grid for the Spa 24 Hours. At each round there were local teams joining the full time entry’s and even been able to win outright as shown by Aston Mating Racing at Silverstone. With the Series been split in to Pro, Pro Am and Gentlemen drivers the racing is well balanced and great to watch. BMW’s Z4 GT3 Showed how well balanced the car was in the hands of the Marc VDS team by winning the Teams Pro Championship, while Nissans GT Academy showed its value by winning the Teams Pro-Am Championship in the Nismo GTR GT3, and Ferrari wining in the hands of the SOFREV ASP Team in the Gentlemen’s Team Championship. Mercedes clinched the Spa 24Hours with the SLS GT3 run by the HTP Team driven by Bernd Schneider, Maximilian Buhk and Maximilian Götz. Check out the Highlights of each rounds below and the overall standings.
