CROPTHORNE ace James Calado won the LMGTE Pro category at the FIA World Endurance Championship's Silverstone meet.
Reigning GT world champions Calado and Italian Alessandro Pier Guidi took their first win of the Super Season in the AF Corse Ferrari 488 GTE Evo.
They capitalised on a tyre and fuel saving strategy in the early phase of the 6 Hours of Silverstone which allowed them to take control in the penultimate hour.
Calado, 29, said: "To win in front of a home crowd on my home circuit is very special."
