Held at the Chang International Circuit in Thailand, the duo of Ate De Jong and Charlie Robertson engaged in a well-fought battle to clinch the fourth spot. The 4,554km track was the venue where 26 cars battled for position against each other for a go at the top spot. While it was the duo’s first stint at this track, this didn’t deter them from fighting their hearts out to gain a respectable slot

The PRT contingent, using the Pnbet88-sponsored Ginetta LMP3 race car, was made possible thanks to the help of Pinbet88, Redmount Group, Motul, and P1 Racewear.
