Half-point leaders edit

For the FIA GT Championship, the top eight cars in the GT1 and GT2 classes are awarded half points for their positions after six hours and twelve hours into the race. Points to the top eight were awarded in the order of 4.0 – 3.0 – 2.5 – 2.0 – 1.5 – 1.0 – 0.5.

Note that the factory Aston Martin Racing squads and the GLPK-Carsport team are listed in these results for the place in which they were running at the time. They were however unable to score points and thus are skipped.
