Pablo Bonifácio and Alceu Feldman were responsible for lucky faces by the Lamborghini people at Curitiba, the second event of the new Brazilian GT3 Championship. They secured the pole positions for both races and Bonifacio was the only driver under the barrier of 1.21 minutes per lap.

Bonifácio kept the lead in the first half of the race until the obligatory pit Stops began and did not made any mistake during the safety car period during his stint. Feldman stepped into the Gallrdo and defended his first position until lap 22. A damaged tyre forced him to an unscheduled pit stop. After the tyre change, Feldman returned to the track in fifth position with just 21 minutes remaining. A second Safety car period helped him to close the gap. Alceu Feldmann used the chance at green flag and fought himself back to first place. So Bonifácio / Feldman took their third win after 37 laps in this championship.

But the pit crew of Bonifácio and Feldman made a perfect stop for the Gallardo and Bonifácio was in the lead again.
