Traditionally, the 6 Hours of Spa constitutes the last WEC event before the most important race of the year, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which takes place a month later. This year is no exception, the Belgian race being already the third round of the 2024 World Endurance Championship.
Run in almost summer weather, it had a rather improbable outcome. Indeed, the race had to be interrupted after around 4 hours following a major accident involving a Hypercar, the Cadillac of Earl Bamber, and an LMGT3, the BMW of Sean Gelael.
