Penalties and Pit Lane Drama Reshape the 2020 Super Trofeo Europe Championship at Barcelona

Oregon Team swept both races, but their double victory revealed more about this championship's character than about raw speed.

Dorian Boccolacci and Kevin Gilardoni claimed back-to-back victories at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, proving that in a one-make series where every car produces the same power, the title will be decided on discipline, composure, and the ability to capitalize when rivals falter.

Equal machinery, unequal outcomes

The Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2's 5.2-liter naturally aspirated V10 producing 620 CV is identical in every car, which strips away the engineering arms race and amplifies pit strategy, tire management, and driver composure under pressure.

Penalties outweigh overtakes at Barcelona

Penalties and mechanical problems reshaped Barcelona's results more dramatically than on-track overtakes, illustrating Squadra Corse's strict regulatory philosophy in a championship where every point matters.

Am class: five seconds across 50 minutes

The Am class battle between Leipert Motorsport's Fidel Leib and Yury Wagner and Target Racing's Massimo Mantovani and Dilantha Malagamuwa ended with just five seconds separating them, capturing why identically prepared cars in 50-minute races often deliver the weekend's most absorbing wheel-to-wheel action.

A talent pipeline feeding GT3 and beyond

The Super Trofeo functions as a talent pipeline where drivers who prove themselves in Pro competition become candidates for factory-supported GT3 programs, endurance racing entries, and roles connected to Lamborghini's expanding Squadra Corse operation.

Oregon Team's #11 Huracán in action at Barcelona

Boccolacci inherited the lead after Dean Stoneman's pitlane speeding infraction drew a drivethrough penalty, and the Frenchman later said he felt confident he could have recovered any gap even without the penalty handing him clean air.

One point separates the Pro title contenders

Stoneman carries a one-point Pro championship lead over Boccolacci and Gilardoni heading into Spa-Francorchamps, and the compressed standings mean a single race incident, penalty, or mechanical failure could swing the title fight dramatically.

The checkered flag Oregon Team chased twice in one weekend

Boccolacci and Gilardoni swept both Barcelona races for the #11 Oregon Team Huracán, and Gilardoni went on to win the 2021 Pro title with Oregon Team, confirming the series as a proving ground for long-term championship contenders.

Competition tool and collector's asset

Autoblog recently highlighted a 2020 Huracán Super Trofeo EVO with just 84 miles on the odometer appearing on the collector market, a reminder that some of these naturally aspirated V10 race cars lead double lives as both competition tools and investment-grade collectibles.
