Prototype Winter Series Barcelona: Newcomer David defeats champion Soufi
Cancellation of Saturday’s race due to relentless rain led to Soufi being declared champion without racing, but Sunday’s PTWS race was held under dry and sunny conditions. Starting from pole position, Soufi had to fend off Moritz Kranz’s tough challenge in the opening laps, with Sebastian Gravlund joining to form a three-car battle. A Full Course Yellow pause and pitstops reshuffled the field, with Soufi holding onto the lead despite pressure from Rik Koen and David. In a thrilling finish, David overtook Soufi and held on to win, while Soufi defended second place from Koen till the end. Despite tyre issues, Soufi secured the teams’ and drivers’ championships, expressing gratitude to Konrad Motorsport. Behind them, Laurent Hörr finished fourth after a dramatic pitlane incident, with Juliene Lemoine taking fifth and second in the championship.
