Bentley GT3 - 3rd at Gulf 12hrs

I know there was a lot of love for the big Bentley on here, well good news PHers, it was a podium finish!

Well done, lets hope to see more victories of them in the Blancpain series!

Good result for a new car, well done to the team. It does look exceptionally cool in GT3 form - sadly I doubt we'll see a GT3 version for the road any time soon, but it's nice to dream.

Maserati were meant to be in there in GT3 guise as well, but must have pulled out a couple of weeks ago as there name was taken off the entrants list - which is a shame.

I think a lighter Conti would be good, but less of a GT3, more of a DBS, or otherwise it will end up like the MC stradale, a car that was miss-marketed as a track day thing rather than just a sharper road car. Unless you just want the Race spec car with a tax disc.

Perhaps just a 700bhp version with the body kit would be better...

IIRC they are going to be run in next years Blancpain Endurance Series.

Another reason to go and catch some of the races....
