Brendon Leitch will be back in action for Leipert Motorsport this weekend, competing in the GT class in a Lamborghini Huracan GT3 with Gabriel Rindone and Lamborghini factory driver Marco Mapelli.
Saturday brings about a sole qualifying session which sets the grid for both races, each of which are 4 hours in length. The event concludes the Asian Le Mans Series which began at Dubai just last week.
Leitch and co battled hard both races after a tricky qualifying session last time out, managing to score a sole point with tenth in class in Race 1 and missing out with 12th in Race 2.
Whilst championship success may be off the table because of this, the Kiwi and his team definitely capable of pulling off big results as they’ve proved in past.
