British GT takes a Spa as Endurance Turns Up the Heat in the Ardennes

The BritishGT Championship heads across the Channel this weekend for its traditional midsummer trip to Spa-Francorchamps,with Sunday’s three-hour race promising to reshape both the GT3 and GT4 title fights as the season begins to crest toward its conclusion.

Set against the sweeping backdrop of the Belgian Ardennes,this weekend’s race marks the second-longest contest on the calendar after the Silverstone 500, and serves as the penultimate round of the newlyi ntroduced GT4 Endurance Cup for 2025.

And the stakes? Higher than ever.

GT4 Endurance Cup: All Eyes on the Leaders

The entry list has grown to 24 cars, though just two Endurance Cup front-runners – Team Parker Racing and Rob Boston Racing – have made the trip to Belgium. They currently top the EC standings and will look to solidify their advantage with strong showings at a circuit that rewards bravery and precision in equal measure.

‍

In GT4 overall, Optimum Motorsport’s Jack Brown and Marc Warren are coming in hot, riding the momentum from a dominant weekend at Oulton Park. Their championship lead now stands at a commanding 50 points after Century Motorsport’s Ravi Ramyead and Charlie Robertson endured a point-less outing. It’s a twist that’s blown the GT4 contest wide open.

‍

Also of note is a major shake-up in thepaddock: Mahiki Racing has switched horses mid-season, shelving its Lotus Emiras in favour of three Ginetta G56 GT4 Evos following a troubled campaign. A bold call – and the team will be eager to show improved form from the off.

GT3: 2 Seas on Top, but Pressure Mounts

In GT3, 2Seas Motorsport is looking increasingly like the team to beat.The Bahraini-flagged squad sits 1-2 in both the Drivers’ and Teams’ standings after a series of standout performances in its Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evos.

‍

Yet, despite the headline dominance, the title fight remains razor-thin. The championship-leading #42 duo of Charles Dawson and Kiern Jewiss endured a bruising Oulton Park weekend, and arrive in Belgium with just a 10-point cushion over teammates Maxi Götz and Kevin Tse in the #18 car. The pair bagged a win and second place in the season’s first sprint weekend, and are hunting momentum.

‍

Lurking with intent are Optimum Motorsport’s Marvin Kirchhöfer and Morgan Tillbrook, just 18 points adrift after a consistent run of form that included pole and a podium at Silverstone. As reported by DSC’s Mo Rehman, Kirchhöfer remains laser-focused on a late-season push.

Elsewhere, Barwell Motorsport’s Hugo Cook is another name to watch.Despite missing his full-season partner Rob Collard for Round 1, Cook’s victory at Oulton Park has pushed him to within 24 points of the title lead in the #63 Lamborghini.

‍

And let’s not forget the wildcard: Spiritof Race returns with its Ferrari 296 GT3 for Matt Griffin and Duncan Cameron, a pairing with a rich back-catalogue of Spa success in both British GT and European endurance racing. Griffin is aiming for win number 15 in British GT – and the car has the legs for it on this type of high-speed circuit.
