Will Stevens and Callum Ilott secured the first customer victory of the Hypercar era for Jota in a 1-2 for the Porsche 963 LMDh, finishing 12.363s ahead of the factory #6 Penske Porsche Motorsport entry shared by Laurens Vanthoor, Andre Lotterer and Kevin Estre.
Taking fuel shortly before the 1h44m red flag, caused when Earl Bamber's Cadillac V-Series.R LMDh clipped the WRT BMW M4 GT3 of Sean Gelael on the Kemmel Straight to fire both cars hard into the barriers, proved crucial in cycling the Porsches to the head of the pack and denying Ferrari a first victory since Le Mans last year.
