The FIA World Endurance Championship continues to deliver high-octane drama in the LMGT3 class for the 2026 season. This highly competitive category features nine prestigious manufacturers—Aston Martin, BMW, Corvette, Ferrari, Ford, Lexus, McLaren, Mercedes-AMG, and Porsche—each fielding a two-car entry. Strict sporting regulations dictate that every car must include at least one driver holding an FIA Bronze status in their respective driver lineup.

Following intense battles on the tarmac culminating at the Barcelona round, Jonny Edgar commands the LMGT3 driver standings at the top with 92 points. Close behind in second place is his teammate aboard the #33 Corvette Z06 LMGT3.R run by TF Sport, Nicky Catsburg, holding 88 points. Meanwhile, Ben Keating sits fifth with 70 points after missing the Imola and Spa-Francorchamps rounds.

This fascinating points gap within the same garage occurs because Keating skipped specific events and Catsburg missed the action in Brazil. Capitalizing on these shifts, the Porsche 911 GT3 R trio from The Bend Manthey featuring Richard Lietz, Riccardo Pera, and Yasser Shahin holds third place overall with 74 points on their championship account.

Their momentum sets the stage for a thrilling conclusion to the season.
