New Lola Aston Martin LMP1 took the victory in Le Mans Series opening round in Barcelona.

Stefan Mucke, Jan Charouz and Tomas Enge took the lead right after the last pitstop, when the leading Pescarolo stole the engine, losing all his advantage. Mucke took the lead few laps later, and crossed the finish line 14 seconds ahead of Boullion-Tinseau's Pecarolo.

Bruno Senna and Stephane Ortelli took third position aboard their Oreca-AIM.

Biagi, Bobbi and Picini's Lola B08/80 claimed victory in LMP2, while Rusinov and Kox took GT1 win aboard the Lamborghini Murcielago.

GT2 victory goes to Lieb-Lietz's Porsche 997 GT3 RSR.
