By Steve Hindle•June 4, 2023•In Automotive, Endurance & GT, Motorsport•1 Minute

British GT’s first two-hour endurance of the season saw 2 Seas Motorsport rise to the top of the standings, but it’s the less-fancied car of Round 1 winners James Cottingham & Jonny Adam that now holds court over its contemporaries. Howard Fielding was our man trackside to capture the best moments from the weekend:
