Toril, together with his team, finishes on 6th place of the PRO-AM category at the iconic race of Paul Ricard 1000km, in preparation for the Spa 24 hours race. 

With a new incorporation in the #16 team, the Irish Matt Griffin, the Black Falcon team could only qualify the car on 42nd position overall and 11th of the PRO-AM category.

Miguel Toril would take the start of the race, managing to improve some places and saving the car from the accidents that were taking place on track. Later on, both Oliver Morley and Matt Griffin would continue with the comeback. After repeating each of the drivers their stint, the Mercedes AMG GT GT3, eventually would cross the finish line at midnight on 20th place overall and 6th of the PRO-AM.

Miguel Toril: “certainly I was expecting a better result here, but the qualifying was not perfect and starting the race from the back of the grid was a handicap. The team and my teammates have done a mistake free work and that is always very important for endurance races. Spa is around the corner y we want to be well ready. Looking at the bright side, we scored good points at Paul Ricard”.
