The long-standing Audi customer team AC Motorsport clinched its first victory of the season with the Audi RS 3 LMS at the 24H Series finale at Sebring.

Stéphane Perrin and his teammates Mathieu Detry, Rik Breukers and Matthew Taskinen fought a long battle in Florida with the Volkswagen team Autorama Motorsport, which had two cars on the grid. Depending on the race situation, AC Motorsport’s lead grew to three laps or shrank back to 26 seconds as it did during the night after a spin and a technical problem.


In the end, the private Audi driver quartet won the TCR class with a one-lap lead and finished a respectable eighth overall in the sports and touring car series. For AC Motorsport, it was the first 24-hour class victory since a corresponding success in Dubai in 2020.


In the 24H Series championship standings, the Belgian team scored second place in the TCR team standings, while Stéphane Perrin and Mathieu Detry are second in the TCR drivers standings.



With its success in America, the Audi RS 3 LMS clinched a class victory in a 24-hour race for the sixth time.
