44 ARC Bratislava squad returned for the final round of the 2022 season after missing the 2022 6 Hours of Fuji.

[4][5] After missing the Fuji race due to a clash with the 2022 DTM Spa round, René Rast returned to the No.

56 Team Project 1 Porsche 911 RSR-19 saw the departure of Ollie Millroy and Brendan Iribe, with Phillip Hyatt and Gunnar Jeannette taking over their place.

In hour 1 it's the supposed-to-be-supporting Ferrari in GTEPro fighting for the positions, while the title contender only being able to watch from the back.

Meanwhile, the #36 Alpine pits on lap 27, changing the left hand side tyres and Vaxivere taking the place of Lapierre in the car.

Meanwhile, Fuoco piloting the #52 has successfully managed to pass Estre in the #92, Ferrari now leading both the manufacturers' and drivers' title with the two Porsches now last in GTEPro, 6 hours and 30 minutes to go.

The trio of #56, #86 and #46 would stick together in that formation for almost half an hour, with the #46 making moves on lap 56~58, passing first the #86 and #56 for a 3rd place in class.

6 minutes to the 6 hour mark and the Alpine comes into the pits for a second time, with Negrao now taking the wheel.

3 minutes to the 6 hour mark and Peugeot falls victim to their constant reliability issue streak again.

In GTEPro, the #64, #52 and #91 takes to the pits during this FCY period; The two Toyotas pit on lap 61, with the #94 Peugeot coming in right after - but it wouldn't manage to complete its out lap without interruptions, the car almost spinning on the exit of turn 1 and then stopping on the run from turn 3~4; but the car would get going again after a power cycle, with the green flag dropping again shortly after.

In LMH the #7 of Conway has now caught up to the #8 of Hartley as they start to run into traffic, the duo now coming up behind the #36, almost about to lap their drivers' title rivals.

8 minutes past the 3 hour mark, and it's the #93 and #94 that pits in LMH, the latter still 2 laps behind its teammate - and almost jumped the gun (despite being given the clear to go) while the car was still connected in the box, with a mechanic having to change another tyre.

Meanwhile, in LMP2, Kubica in the #9 Prema was being chased down by Jarvis in the #23 United car for 2nd place, with the #31 WRT 35 seconds in the lead.

With 2 hours and 20 minutes to go, the #94 Peugeot has finally caught back up to the rear of the LMH field, 7 laps behind the race leading Toyota #7 of Kobayashi, who's 30 seconds in front of his teammate in the #8 car.

Meanwhile, the #22 United car of Owen, coming out of the pits, manages to just undercut the #9 Prema and make a pass for 3rd place.

With 2 hours and 10 minutes to go, the #93 Peugeot was back in the garage again with a broken 4th gear, now taking the place of the #94 as the last car in the LMH class.

Owen makes a mistake and runs slightly wide at turn 6 of lap 185, and Stevens takes the opportunity to make the pass at turn 8 on lap 185, moving up to a podium position and further extending their lead in the teams' championship to their closest rival, the currently class-leading #31 WRT.

On lap 191, Calado reports over the radio that there's issues with "gearbox oil", while the #64 of Tandy is catching rapidly behind.

By lap 193, the #51 had lost its position to both the #64 and #91, with Calado going off the racing line multiple times in order to maintain the revs after losing 4th gear.

The #91 would take 3rd from the #51 on the turn 13~14 straight on lap 199, with Pier Guidi now having to focus on nursing the #51 to the chequered flag without a 4th gear.

The #51 of Pier Guidi has been warned for abusing track limits on lap 210 - a result of the car being affected under braking due to having to downshift directly from 5th to 3rd.

The Toyotas have controlled the race in LMH, with a stable gap of around 40 seconds dividing the #7 and #8 for the past hour; both cars would pit for the final time with 48 minutes remaining, with Conway and Hartley taking over from Lopez and Buemi respectively.

Prema would finally come into the pits with only 5 minutes remaining, the #9 losing 3rd place to the championship leading #38.

The #7 Toyota crosses the line with 245 laps clocked, their championship winning teammate finishing 45 seconds later.
