Spa-Francorchamps: Riccardo Pera on the FIA WEC Podium

The Spa-Francorchamps circuit once again delivered an unforgettable spectacle during the 2026 6 Hours of Spa, the second round of the FIA WEC World Championship. In a race marked by intermittent rain, Safety Cars, and millimetric duels, our Riccardo Pera proved why he is considered one of the best GT drivers in the world.

The Podium of Consecration

Behind the wheel of the Manthey PureRxcing Porsche 911 GT3 R, Riccardo secured a fantastic 3rd place in the LMGT3 class. A race built with patience and surgical precision, culminating in a breathtaking comeback that kept the over 100,000 spectators on the Ardennes hills on the edge of their seats.

Style and Performance Under Pressure

Driving through the famous Eau Rouge and Raidillon sections at nearly 300 km/h requires absolute concentration. In these conditions, technical equipment also plays a vital role. Riccardo’s Stilo ST6 helmet, with its exclusive mirrored chrome base created by Dia Design, is not just an aesthetic element but a symbol of distinction and visibility, standing out even in the chaos of endurance racing nights.

Our handcrafted airbrushing was designed to maximize visual impact and withstand the extreme stresses of a brutal circuit like the Belgian one. Seeing that chrome reflection speed onto the podium is our greatest satisfaction.

Next Stop: Le Mans

With this prestigious result, Riccardo Pera and the Manthey team consolidate their position at the top of the world standings, sending a clear signal ahead of the year’s most important event: the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June.
