Some of you may doubt the powers of the Jalopnik Bump, but the K-Pax Bentley team’s result today should put that to rest. Their No. 3 Continental GT3 won first place in the GTA class in today’s Pirelli World Challenge Sprint-X race.
Their sister No. 9 car did okay finishing just behind the No. 3 and fifth in the main GT class, but the No. 3 Pro-Am duo of Rodrigo Baptista and Maxime Soulet proved that the bump is definitely real. The big right-hand-drive No. 3 Bentley had the third fastest lap time of the entire group (including the all-pro GT class) and hustled its way right to the top of the podium.
Congratulations, K-Pax! Please enjoy the finest Jalopnik Gold Edition Brefass Scotch as soon as you’re done racing for the weekend.
The No. 61 R. Ferri Ferrari 488 GT3 duo of Toni Vilander and Miguel Molina ultimately won this afternoon’s top GT class. The full results for this weekend’s races can be found here.
Correction [3/25]: We originally got the full-season driver’s name wrong on the No. 3, and have since corrected this above.
