Patrice Lafargue, Paul Lafargue and Dimitri Enjalbert fought hard until the end of the 12 hour race in Mugello to get a fine second place in the overall rankings. This result rewards the whole of the IDEC SPORT team. After qualifying in eighth position, the three drivers of the Mercedes AMG GT3 #17 managed to progress throughout the race without making any serious mistakes. After Dimitri Enjalbert got off to a good start, the Lafargues (father and son) kept up the pace and got IDEC SPORT RACING into fourth place before the race was interrupted.
