Huracán GT3 Sweeps Hungaroring and Silverstone in One Weekend

Four Lamborghini teams delivered victories and podiums across the Blancpain Sprint Cup and International GT Open, proving the V10 platform's range.

Christian Engelhart launched the #63 GRT Grasser Racing Team Huracán GT3 from fifth on the grid at the Hungaroring, carved through the field before the first corner, and never looked back.

The naturally aspirated V10 against a turbocharged field

The Huracán GT3's 5.2-liter V10 delivers its power higher in the rev range, rewarding drivers who keep it on the boil while turbocharged rivals rely on broader mid-range torque.

Engelhart's edge in drying conditions

Engelhart admitted the Mercedes was the faster car in the dry, but in transitional conditions the V10's throttle response and the car's mechanical balance gave the Huracán GT3 an edge over turbocharged rivals dealing with lag and traction unpredictability.

Squadra Corse versus established GT3 empires

Lamborghini's naturally aspirated V10 offers something neither Ferrari's twin-turbo V8 nor Mercedes-AMG's aero-focused GT3 provides: a linear, predictable power delivery that rewards precise driving inputs, particularly when turbo lag becomes a liability.

From GT3 podiums to road-car engineering

Calibration knowledge from the GT3 program — damper tuning, aerodynamic balance, tire-degradation management — fed directly into the Huracán Performante and STO road cars.

A championship pedigree built to last

Engelhart and Bortolotti secured the overall Blancpain GT Series title in 2017, validating the Huracán GT3 against the full spectrum of GT3 machinery from Ferrari, Mercedes-AMG, Audi, and Porsche.
