So hectic was Mercedes factory driver Jules Gounon’s racing schedule in February that he only spent one day at home.
Following his GTD Pro class victory in the Daytona 24 Hours, he headed directly Down Under for the Bathurst 12 Hour the following week and secured a remarkable outright win for his pro-am entry, his third in succession in the event making him the only three-time winner in its history. Next he headed to Dubai for the opening round of the Asian Le Mans Series, before trekking to Abu Dhabi for the conclusion of that brief championship.
