Brit Harry Barton Shines at Spa

Thursday 4th June 2026

CLOSE REPORT
SUPERCAR CHALLENGE: SPA FRANCORCHAMPS 31 May 2026

After a somewhat disappointing run of bad luck British driver Harry Barton absolutely blitzed the opposition at Spa last Sunday. 

Driving his BMW M6 GT3, prepared by Koopman Racing and sponsored by Smart Payment Technologies, Harry led the sixty minute race almost from the word go and crossed the finish line with more than a forty second lead. In terms of Championship points he now lies third overall. Next outing, two thirty minute sprints followed by a one hour race, takes place at Zolder in Belgium over the weekend 27-28 June. The series is covered live on RTL Dutch television and relayed via YouTube. Barton Racing (www.barton-racing.com) has its own various social media channels and welcomes visitors to its pit garage at all meetings.
