Season report.
Barcelona.
The ELMS season began with the 4 Hours of Barcelona, where Reshad de Gerus took overall pole in the #30 Duqueine Team entry. Laurents Hörr took an early overall lead in the #3 DKR Engineering Pro-Am entry, overtaking the full LMP2 field, but later received a penalty for jumping the start. The #48 VDS Panis Racing entry briefly took the lead, before being overtaken by the #47 CLX Motorsport entry, who led the race until the final hour before losing out to the #18 IDEC Sport entry. The #47 later retired ten laps from the finish with a mechanical issue. A late safety car resulted in a two-lap sprint to the finish. Having taken fresh tyres, the fourth-placed LMP2 Pro-Am #83 AF Corse entry driven by Matthieu Vaxivière was able to take the lead and the overall win. The #18 and #48 rounded out the overall podium. In LMP3, the #17 CLX Motorsport entry won after running in the top three for most of the race. In LMGT3, the #85 Iron Dames all-female entry led all but three laps to take victory.
