The final rounds of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe and Asia took place at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli in Italy. The Leipert Motorsport team, supported by Proficar, entered a total of six cars – four from the European series and two from the Asian championship. First, the two races of the respective round 6 were held, before the week concluded with the World Final.
#44 Thalin (SWE) / Bergman (SWE) – Pro class (European rounds
and World Finals)
For Calle Bergman and Manz Thalin, round 6 was a rollercoaster ride. In the first race, Bergman had to swerve to avoid a spinning car and was unable to prevent contact. After the unfortunate exit, the team remained focused and staged a strong comeback in the second race, which was rewarded with 9th place. In the subsequent World Final, the duo did not finish the first race due to a technical defect, but were able to finish the second race without incident in 16th place, making up almost 20 positions in the process.
#56 Roberts (CAN) / Courtney (USA) – LC Cup class (European rounds and World Finals)
Fred Roberts and Jeff Cortney also delivered a solid performance in the LB Cup in Round 6. After a scary moment in Race 1, when Roberts took a hit to his rear wheel and spun as a result, he was able to continue and finish the race in 5th place in his class. In the second race, the duo also remained confident and achieved a strong 4th place. They finished the first race of the World Finals in eleventh place and the second race in seventh place in their
class – a positive result to end the season.
#70 Stati (AUS) / Leitch (NZL) – Pro class (European rounds)
Nicolas Stati and Brendon Leitch put in an outstanding performance at Misano. They confidently secured overall victory in both the first and second races of Round 6. Leitch started from pole position in the second race and the duo even managed to extend their lead to an impressive 15 seconds. Particularly noteworthy: this was only Stati’s second race weekend ever in a GT car – an extraordinary achievement for the Australian single-seater driver.
#70 Riegel (GER) – Pro class (World Finals)
In the subsequent World Final, Jacob Riegel competed as a solo driver in the #70 car and finished 12th in the first race. In the second race, he put in a very strong performance, making up a total of 13 places and finishing the race in a well-deserved 8th place.
#99 Rytter (DEN) / Pretorius (ZAF) – Pro class (European rounds
and World Finals)
Anthony Pretorius and Silas Rytter impressed in both races of Round 6 with a consistently strong and flawless performance. Despite a difficult start in the second race, in which they lost a few positions, the duo fought their way back and finished 5th in the class in both races. In the subsequent World Final, they continued their previous performance and finished 4th in the first race. In the second race, they were also in the top 5 for a long time, but received a time penalty and spun after a collision. Despite these setbacks, they finished the race in 11th place.
#227 Brown (SGN) / Riegel (GER) – Pro class (Asia rounds and World Finals)
Ethan Brown and Jacob Riegel impressed in the first race of round 6. Both drivers delivered a flawless race and rewarded themselves with a strong third place in the overall standings. The Leipert duo also delivered in the second race: Riegel got off to a strong start but was pushed off the track in the early stages. After the driver change, Brown excelled with consistently fast laps and secured fourth place for the duo. These important points meant that Brown finished as runner-up in the PRO classification of the Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia – a strong end to the season.
#227 Brown (SGN) – Pro class (World Finals)
In the subsequent World Final, Brown finished seventh in the first race as a solo driver, but had to retire early in the second race.
#289 Song (CHN) / Leitch (NZL) – Pro-Am class (Asia rounds and World Finals)
Round 6 was an unfortunate one for Jiajun Song and Brendon Leitch. After setting a strong pace and leading the PRO-AM class for a long time, a puncture on the last lap prevented them from securing a podium finish – a bitter end to what had been a great race up to that point. In the second race, the duo once again performed well, but had to settle for fourth place after a collision. In the subsequent World Final, the team retired early in the first
race after a collision, but put in a strong performance in the second race and finished ninth in the class after leading for several kilometers.
Final thoughts on the 2025 Season; Looking Ahead
“We are very satisfied with the overall performance of our team at the season finale in Misano. With six cars and almost 8,500 kilometers covered, this event was certainly one of the most intense of the year. The double victory for #70 was a great end to the European season and underlines the strong performance of our drivers. We are also particularly pleased with Ethan Brown’s runner-up title in the PRO class of the Super Trofeo Asia – a well-deserved reward for his consistent development and hard work. In addition, our drivers impressed with strong performances in the World Final and impressively demonstrated the potential of all Leipert cars. A big thank you goes to our entire team, all drivers and partners for their commitment and the successful 2025 season.” said Marc Poos and Marcel Leipert
In addition to preparatory test drives for the 2026 season, there is another race on the agenda. Leipert Motorsport will participate in the 12h Malaysia in December with a Lamborghini Huracan GT3 Evo2. The line-up will be announced shortly.
