Intro:

The British M-Sport Bentley team won the Three Hours of Paul Ricard in Castellet, France on Saturday (June 28th).

Script:

Following their victory at the Silverstone round of the Blancpain Endurance Series, the number 7 M-Sport Bentley made it back-to-back wins on Saturday in the Three Hours of Paul Ricard.

At the end of the three-hour race, the British team finished with a mere 1.1 seconds advantage over the number 98 ART Grand Prix McLaren of Gregoire Demoustier, Alvaro Parente and Nicolas Lapierre.

Victory in the third round of the season lifted Bentley trio Guy Smith, Andy Meyrick and Steven Kane to the top of the Pro Cup driver standings.

The battle for third was decided after a frantic battle between the two HTP Motorsport Mercedes.

Eventually it was the number 85 machine of Lucas Wolf, Sergei Afanasiev and Stef Dusseldorp that ended up on the podium.
