There's two hours to go here at the #Kyalami9H. It's dark, it's raining a lot and our #43 Pro-Am car is still 1st in class. Tricky conditions for everyone
Have you ever seen anything like this at a motor race?! The standing water - and there's a lot of it - is visibly evaporating as the Safety Car leads @RichardLietz and @nickcatsburg around. #IntGTC | #Kyalami9H ๐ฟ๐ฆ

Devastated that our #44 Pro car is out at the 3-hour mark. @TristanVautier was running in a strong fifth place. Our #43 Pro-Am leads the class #Kyalami9Hour
Another big development in the Manufacturers' Championship: @TristanVautier's @StrakkaRacing AMG is in the tyre wall and out of the race! So AMG have only two #IntGTC entries left compared to Porsche's four. #IntGTC | #Kyalami9H ๐ฟ๐ฆ

84 laps done at the #Kyalami9Hour! #44 @StrakkaRacing is on P6 having a great race to catch up so far. #10 SPS automotive performance is currently ranked P9. #6 @TeamBlackFalcon made up some positions as well and occupies P15. Letโs push! #MercedesAMGMotorsport #AMGGT3 #IntGTC

After a brilliant first stint that saw @GaryPaffett gain 7 places on the Pro car's starting spot, an incredible pitstop from the Strakka crew sees the #44 in second place overall just after the one hour mark! Our #43 Pro-Am car also leads the class! #Kyalami9Hour
