The 2026 Serbian GT Sim Championship season is officially under way! The first race was held on Sunday, 11 October, at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps. The biggest novelty of the season, the multiclass format, showed straight away what it brings: GT3 and GT4 cars shared the track in the same race, and viewers followed two fights for victory at once.

23 drivers lined up on the grid. Of the 13 two-driver teams, three drivers did not take part this time, so the grid had 12 GT3 and 11 GT4 cars. If you missed the broadcast, you can watch the whole race on our Sim Master YouTube channel.

Qualifying: decided in the final seconds

Predrag Kizić (Febi Intercars) held first place for most of qualifying, but it all came down to the very end. In the final seconds Miloš Tomić (Lightning Racing) set a 2:16.887 lap and took pole position by around two tenths. Right behind him came Vukašin Kepić (Mebit), who beat Kizić by just three thousandths of a second, leaving Kizić to start third.

In the GT4 class the fastest driver was Nikola Milosavljević (Rocket TT), who started 13th overall and first in his class.

It is worth keeping in mind that some drivers were able to choose their car and some were not, so the first race should not be taken as a verdict on the teams. Some drivers clicked with their car right away while others are still getting used to theirs, and we expect the gaps to shrink as the season goes on.

The race: Tomić and Kepić duel for the win

The race began with a long formation lap, and the fight at the front was fierce from the very first metre. Vukašin Kepić (Mebit) made an excellent start and took the lead, then fought an exhausting battle with Tomić for first place, with the lead changing hands several times.

Miloš Tomić (Lightning Racing) drove a mature, fast race. He made the most of every opportunity and held on to his lead at the finish to take a well-deserved first GT3 win of the season.

Vukašin Kepić, after his excellent start and spell in the lead, finished second, having withstood huge pressure from his rivals for most of the race.

Predrag Kizić (Febi Intercars) had great pace and fought for the podium right to the end. Unfortunately, in the final minutes, an attempted attack on Kepić ended in contact and a trip across the kerbs, which cost him several positions. He crossed the line fifth and was classified fourth following the stewards' decisions.

GT4: Milosavljević backs up his qualifying pace

In the GT4 class the win went to Nikola Milosavljević (Rocket TT), who confirmed the speed he showed in qualifying. Ivan Novaković (Polovni automobili) secured an excellent second place in class after a steady drive and a battle with Marko Kostić (Mebit).

Key incidents and penalties

Early contact in the midfield. Minor contacts under heavy braking were already seen in the opening laps, such as the one between Marko Marić and Luka Brdar, forcing some drivers to fight their way through the GT4 traffic early.

Traffic with the GT4 class. With the GT3 cars considerably faster, lapping the slower cars brought tactical moments. Most drivers respected the rules and moved off the racing line correctly, but the congestion in some corners created tension and chances for mistakes.

Incident at the finish. Just before the end, an unsafe rejoin led to contact between Vladan Miladinović (Plavi Krug) and Milorad Jašić (Auto Moto Revija), spoiling both drivers' results in the traffic before the flag.
