R-Motorsport’s win with their #76 Aston Martin Vantage V12 at the Silverstone round of the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup has now been confirmed.

Car #76 driven by Jake Dennis, Nicki Thiim and Matthieu Vaxiviere started the Silverstone race in pole position following the team’s appeal of the Stewards’ decision to exclude Car#76 from the qualifying results.

The Aston Martin Vantage V12 #76 duly won the race and has been allowed to keep the victory after a hearing in front of the RACB Sport National Court of Appeal.

Says Dr. Florian Kamelger, Team Principal, R-Motorsport: “We are extremely glad that the superb victory of our car #76 has been retained. We are now looking forward to the 24-hour race at Spa-Francorchamps, the highlight of our season.”
