Mixed feelings for Audi Sport Team WRT, as victory at Indy 8 Hours fades away close to the flag   

It was an Indianapolis 8 Hours full of contrasting emotions for Audi Sport Team WRT, as the Belgian squad missed the victory because of a last-minute drive-through.  Dries Vanthoor, Charles Weerts and Christopher Mies in car #32 eventually crossed the line in 6^th.  

Like often in the US, the race was rich in full-course yellow periods and incidents. One of those, at an early stage, compromised the race of car #37, with Mattia Drudi, Robin Frijns and Nico Müller still able to recover to finish 12^th.  

The disappointment in the Team WRT camp was partially mitigated by the fact that the race was won by an Audi R8 LMS, further strengthening the lead of the German brand in the Intercontinental GT Challenge standings.
