Blancpain GT World Challenge Europe – Preview Round 3, Zandvoort
The Blancpain GT World Challenge Europe holds the third round of the season at the Circuit Zandvoort on the Dutch North Sea coast this coming weekend (12 - 14 July). After finishing third and fourth at Misano two weeks ago, BLACK FALCON continues to lead the World Challenge Europe driver and team standings. At the race weekend in the dunes of Zandvoort BLACK FALCON competes with a Mercedes-AMG GT3. The car #4 will be driven by the reigning Blancpain Endurance Cup Champions Maro Engel (DE) and Luca Stolz (DE). The 4.320 km long Circuit Park Zandvoort is located directly on the coast and is known for its constantly changing weather and track conditions. In addition to this, the narrow circuit stands out through challenging passages and several blind corners.
During all race weekends of the Blancpain GT World Challenge there will be two sprint races over one hour each. Prior to this, two 20-minute qualifying sessions, one for each driver, decide on the starting positions for races 1 and 2. During the races, a 10-minute time window opens at halftime for a mandatory pit stop including driver change. The results of the races, together with those of the Endurance Cup, are included in the Blancpain GT Series overall standings to determine an overall champion from sprint and endurance races.
