Whilst the Spa 24 Hours has become a event associated with the best that GT racing has to offer, it was originally a race for touring cars (albeit with GT cars often involved).
From 2001 though, it transferred to being a purely GT race with the Royal Automobile Club of Belgium partnering with SRO.
To celebrate its shift to a GT race ahead of its centenary edition this weekend, here are the 23 GT winners of the race, with GT1, GT2 and GT3 machines on the winning roster so far, from eight different manufacturers.
