SKOR.id - Sean Gelael mengalami nasib sial saat mengendarai mobil Team WRT 31 dalam ajang balap 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps yang digelar di Belgia pada Sabtu (11/5/2024).

Dalam balapan ketiga FIA WEC 2024 tersebut, Team WRT 31 yang turun di kelas LMGT3 memulai lomba dari peringkat ke-12.

Menjalani balapan kandang, Team WRT 31 tampil impresif lantaran mampu secara bertahap naik ke peringkat empat dan berpotensi finis podium di kelas LMGT3.

Sayang, momentum positif itu buyar usai Sean Gelael yang sedang mengendarai mobil Team WRT 31 mengalami kecelakaan kala balapan tersisa sekitar 1 jam 49 menit.

Kecelakaan yang terjadi di lurusan Kemmel itu bermula dari upaya Earl Bamber (Cadillac Racing 2) menyalip mobil lain dari kelas Hypercar.

Sean Gelael yang berada di kelas berbeda sejatinya sudah "memberi jalan" dengan melaju di sisi terluar lintasan.

Namun, Bamber yang melakukan manuver overtake di ruang sempit melakukan kesalahan sehingga menyenggol mobil Sean dalam kecepatan tinggi.

Akibat dari kontak tersebut, kedua pembalap kehilangan kendali dan menabrak dinding pembatas sehingga pada akhirnya gagal finis.

Prosedur safety car pun langsung diterapkan dan tak berselang lama disusul oleh bendera merah yang membuat balapan dihentikan sementara.

Usai tertunda lebih dari 100 menit untuk evakuasi dan pembersihan debris, 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps kembali dilanjutkan dengan durasi balapan selama satu jam 44 menit.

Balapan ketiga FIA WEC 2024 itu pada akhirnya dimenangi oleh Hertz Team Jota 12 untuk kelas Hypercar dan Manthey EMA 91 untuk kelas LMGT3.

Pada sisi lain, Sean Gelael tentu saja menyayangkan insiden yang terjadi sehingga membuatnya gagal finis di Belgia.

Apalagi kecelakaan ini membuat Team WRT 31 gagal melanjutkan momentum positif usai meraih kemenangan pada balapan sebelumnya, 6 Hours of Imola.

Meski demikian, pembalap 27 tahun itu tetap menerima hasil lomba dengan legawa dan memilih langsung mengalihkan fokus ke balapan selanjutnya.

“(Hasilnya) bisa saja lebih baik atau lebih buruk (jika tak terlibat kecelakaan). Kami tengah bertarung untuk podium di kandang sendiri dan insiden itu terjadi,” katanya.

“Saya pikir, itu adalah insiden yang sebenarnya bisa dihindari. Akan tetapi, itulah yang sudah terjadi.”

“Semoga saja kami bisa berada di posisi lebih baik di lain waktu. Kami sudah menutup buku Spa dan kami fokus penuh menatap Le Mans,” katanya.

Setelah ini, rangkaian kompetisi FIA WEC 2024 memang bakal berlanjut ke Le Mans, Prancis untuk seri legendaris 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Balapan 24 Hours of Le Mans sendiri dijadwalkan berlangsung di Circuit de la Sarthe pada 15–16 Juni 2024 mendatang.
