DAMS, the reigning champion team in Formula Le Mans was sovereign in spite of an excellent start of the day carried out by the team Boutsen Energy Racing. It is indeed the Belgian team which had won the first sprint race the morning, thanks to the Austrian Dominik Kraihamer, who had proven to be intractable with the whole of his competitors.
But in the second sprint race sprint, DAMS carried out a beautiful counter-offensive and signed a superb one-two thanks to Sebastien Dumez and Guillaume Bermond. This same Guillaume Bermond who, with the young driver Nelson Panciaticci, will finish on more the high step of the podium at the end of the endurance race the afternoon!
