Darren Leung enjoyed the most competitive opening race of the trio. The Paradine Competition driver, alongside teammate Augusto Farfus in the #991 car, qualified eighth in class for Race 1 before climbing to fourth in the category at the chequered flag, narrowly missing out on a podium while finishing 25th overall. Race 2 proved more challenging after another midfield qualifying performance, with Leung ultimately crossing the line 38th overall and eighth in the Bronze Cup.
Tanart Sathienthirakul, alongside teammate Mark Kastelic in the #54 Dinamic GT, endured a consistent if difficult weekend in the Silver Cup. After qualifying ninth in class for Race 1, the Thai driver maintained that position through the race to finish 33rd overall. Qualifying improved slightly for Sunday's contest with eighth in class, but despite moving up the overall order to 29th, Sathienthirakul again finished ninth in the Silver Cup.
Carl Bennett, alongside Felix Hirsiger in the #71 AF Corse, produced the strongest recovery of the Silver Cup runners. Seventh in class during Race 1 qualifying translated into eighth in class at the finish, but Sunday's race marked a clear step forward. Starting ninth in class, Bennett and Hirsiger worked their way through the field to secure sixth in the Silver Cup and 23rd overall, the best class result among the Silver Cup entries covered.
Misano ultimately delivered steady points-scoring performances rather than headline results. Leung's Race 1 charge to fourth in the Bronze Cup came closest to silverware, while Bennett's Race 2 recovery highlighted the strongest upward trend of the weekend as GT World Challenge Europe moves on to its next round.
