Levente Révész clinched the 2025 International GT Open Championship at Monza, bringing home the title for Team Motopark after a consistent debut GT3 campaign. A third-place finish alongside Maximilian Götz was enough to seal both the Drivers’ and Teams’ titles for the German squad.

The race itself was won by Carl Bennett and Tommaso Mosca, who guided the AF Corse Ferrari 296 GT3 to a commanding victory, marking their fourth win of the season and securing second in the final standings. The Elite Motorsport Ferrari of Tom Lebbon and Tom Emson completed a Ferrari one-two finish, while the Eastalent Racing Audi of Simon Reicher and Christopher Haase came home fourth, confirming third overall in the championship.

Title Secured Despite Penalty Drama

Révész started the race from pole position after the Eastalent Audi was handed a grid penalty for track limits, with Bennett’s AF Corse Ferrari lining up close behind. Chaos erupted at the opening chicane when multiple cars made contact, triggering two early safety car periods. Once the dust settled, Lebbon led the race ahead of Bennett and Révész, who managed his title hopes with a steady drive.

After the first driver changes, Mosca took over the #51 Ferrari and immediately began pulling away from the field, stretching a narrow lead into a commanding 14-second gap. The Motopark Mercedes, meanwhile, held position in second until Emson found a way past during the middle stint. The final round of pit stops saw Bennett resume control at the front, holding an 18-second lead that he and Mosca never relinquished.

The #11 Motopark Mercedes-AMG crossed the line in second but received a five-second penalty for a pit stop infringement, dropping to third. The penalty had no bearing on the championship result, confirming Révész as the new GT Open Champion. “I feel ecstatic—it’s been a great year and a great team effort,” said Révész. Götz added: “It really feels like a shared title. Levi has done an incredible job this year.”

Class Battles Go to the Wire

The Pro-Am Championship reached its dramatic conclusion as Valentin Pierburg and Dominik Baumann (SPS Mercedes) overcame a chaotic finale to secure the crown, despite needing emergency repairs to their bonnet in the final hour. Victory in class went to Bashar Mardini and Alex Fontana in the Tsunami RT Porsche, capping their season on a high.

In Am, the Garage 59 McLaren of Mark Sansom and Marco Pulcini claimed the race win, but it wasn’t enough to snatch the title from Gino Forgione and Michele Rugolo (AF Corse Ferrari), who finished second and claimed the championship by the narrowest of margins—tied on points but ahead on results countback.

Season Closes, Eyes on 2026

The 2025 International GT Open season ended in fitting style at the Temple of Speed, where four title contenders arrived with everything to play for — and left with new names etched into the series’ history. Révész’s maiden championship marked a milestone for both the young Hungarian and Team Motopark, while Ferrari celebrated a dominant Monza finale with AF Corse and Elite Motorsport.

With all three class titles settled in dramatic fashion, the GT Open now looks ahead to 2026. The new campaign will kick off at Portimão in mid-April and return to iconic venues such as Spa, Misano, Paul Ricard, and Monza, before concluding at Barcelona on 23–25 October in the GT Open 500 format. The winter test at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya on 20–21 March will open preparations for another competitive season of European GT racing.
