The race spec version of Lamborghini Huracan, the GT3, has participated in the official practice session of Blancpain Endurance series managed by the Stephane Ratel Organisation (SRO). The event was held in Paul Ricard, France. The Sant’Agata based manufacturer is generally not interested in racing, like other Italians brands Ferrari and Alfa Romeo, but this time it is trying something different.

This two day event is extremely important to test the mettle of this machine and the drivers involved in it. The laps were completed by six official Lamborghini Squadra Corse drivers that will be racing in the Blancpain Endurance Series. There were another 45 cars present in this demanding session and Huracan GT3 played well by completing large number of laps.
