WorseTurnip850 won the Spa E3 race from fourth on the grid to claim a first IMS victory for Williams.
Elias_endale advanced from P3 to second for VCARB, while pole-sitter NesbiLeGrand finished third for Ferrari.
Three places defeat the championship pair
WorseTurnip passed both drivers at the top of the E3 standings and one additional starter. The first victory came directly above the season's leading two.
Nesbi remains first on 263 points, 14 ahead of Elias on 249. Elias's second place reduces the gap without taking the lead.
A new winner enters a two-driver title fight
The race result broadens E3 without diluting the championship pressure. WorseTurnip owns Spa; Nesbi and Elias remain separated by 14 in the cumulative table.
Spa therefore gives E3 two fresh facts: its winner starts outside the title top two, and the gap between those two shrinks beneath half a standard victory.
