#14 Lexus RC F GT3 Victorious at VIR

Baumann led the final 18 laps around the 17-turn, 5.3km Virginia road course to score the team's second victory of the season and third podium finish. Marcelli started fourth in the #14 Lexus and held his position in the top five during his initial stint before handing driving duties over to Baumann for a double stint to close out the race.

The 25-year old Austrian took the lead on lap 69 following a series of on-track incidents by competitors racing ahead of him and he drove the RC F GT3 to the front of the GTD field.

The driver duo of Baumann and Marcelli currently ranks fifth in IMSA's provisional championship point standings, while the win moved Lexus into third place in IMSA's GTD manufacturer championship standings with two races remaining this season. Lexus and 3GT Racing return to competition on Sunday, 9^th September for a sprint event at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, where Lexus is the official luxury vehicle of the 11-turn California road course.
