Last time we went racing in Belgium, we saw a thrilling LMGT3 race that went right down to the wire. The fight between Fabian Roth and Yaroslav Shelomanov for the victory went right down to the final corner, with the latter eventually coming out on top in the #46 BMW LMGT3.

This time, Spa will be plunged into darkness for the one-hour event. Keep your wits about yourself during this race; it will be hard-fought and test your concentration in the dark!

6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps Winners (2020–2024)

Toyota has been the unbeaten king in Belgium, but in 2024 and 2025, they saw a change of the guard, with Ferrari swooping in and claiming both races. With multiclass playing a significant role in our very own race at Spa, make sure you choose your manufacturer wisely. It could be the deciding factor!
