Gracie and Davison executed a flawless performance to lead the majority of the 60-minute race and take their first win in comfortable fashion.

With her maiden Pro-Am win, Gracie has now won races in all three GTWCA classes alongside triumphs in Am and Trophy.

In doing so, Gracie became the first woman to win a GT World Challenge Australia race outright.

Drama struck the Ryan Wood/Steve Brooks Team BRM Audi R8 before the race even started.

Brooks failed to move away on the formation lap and was towed back to the pit lane where the team set about a battery change, allowing the car to rejoin the race eight laps down.

Tigani Motorsport’s Justin Tigani held the lead from pole position over Gracie for the opening laps as Mercedes-AMG teammate Sergio Pires fought to hold off the hard-charging Team BRM Audi of Mark Rosser.

Rosser got away to a lightning start from seventh on the grid, charging through to fourth by the first corner, and battling for third with Pires for the bulk of the opening lap.

A short Safety Car was drawn when Darren Currie found himself stricken inside Turn 6 in the opening laps.

Elliott Schutte was noted for potential contact with Currie, drawing a post-race investigation.

Gracie bided her time, eventually taking the lead from Tigani on Lap 6 with a decisive move at Turn 4 after the Safety Car restart.

Once Gracie vacated the OnlyFans-backed Ferrari 296, Davison held the lead.

Oscar Targett held onto second position after taking the reins from Tigani despite a scare with the sister Sergio Pires/Brendon Leitch Mercedes-AMG, with slight front-to-rear contact at Turn 4 after the pit stop.

The battle between Leitch and Targett helped Davison build and hold a comfortable lead.

Targett/Tigani came home in second position ahead of teammates Leitch/Pires.

Jaxon Evans/Schutte came home in fourth place on the road but were given a 33-second penalty that demoted them to eighth,

The Broc Feeney/Brad Schumacher Melbourne Performance Centre Audi leapt to fourth as a result.

Fifth were Alex Peroni/Mark Rosser (#268 Audi), Josh Buchan/Cameron Campbell (#23 Ferrari), Jayden Ojeda/Paul Lucchitti (#66 Mercedes), Evans/Schutte, Tony D’Alberto/Adrian Deitz (#93 Lamborghini), and Luke Youlden/Nathan Halstead (#71 Porsche) rounded out the top 10.

Youlden and Halstead took the Trophy class win ahead of Paul Stokell/Gary Higgon, and Cameron Rees.

GT World Challenge Australia returns on Sunday at 10:25am AEST.
