LM GTE @ 6 Hours of Spa 2019

FIA WEC LMGTE PRO Season 7, Race 7/8: 6 Hours of Spa 2019.

The start was delayed due to the cold so that track temperature could reach the minimum 5°. Literally minutes later a storm blew in and before long the snow was falling again. And that’s pretty much how the race went as weather conditions cycled between clear and sunny to wet and windy as virtually every form of water fell from the skies.
