Nicolas Lapierre scored his second GP2 Series victory of the season at Spa-Francorchamps, dominating the feature race from start to chequered flag.

Starting on pole position, Nicolas had to hold off the challenge of di Grassi and Filippi at the first corner. They were almost three abreast, but Lapierre turned on to the inside line. Then, Di Grassi maintained the pressure and attacked the leader on lap eight, but Nicolas held on to the outside line and got better drive off the corner. Nicolas drove superbly the whole race. The good pit stop strategy combined with a perfect tyres change from the mechanics allowed him to keep the lead of the race. Finally, he crossed the chequered flag with a 4.8 seconds lead on the second one.

Nicolas Lapierre: "I'm very happy of my victory. Starting from pole position and winning the feature race on that difficult track is a very good result for me and for the team. I did an excellent race without any mistakes. The pitstop strategy was excellent as I increase the gap with the other competitors. The car was oversteering with the first set of tyres but balance was perfect after the pit stop. There are still three races remaining till the end of the championship, I wish to grab some more successes."
