He finished eleventh in the Silver Cup class with 28.5 points. He also made a one-off cameo in the International GT Open, collecting a podium at the Spa enduro with Matisse Lismont.

2025 In 2025, Lecertua signed with Saintéloc Racing to compete in the Silver category of both the GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup and Sprint Cup aboard an Audi R8 LMS Evo II. He partnered Ivan Klymenko in both and ended the Endurance Cup fifth in their category, coming third in the first race at Circuit Paul Ricard and finishing second in the 2025 24 Hours of Spa.
Their Sprint Cup campaign brought more silverware, getting five podiums through the year and even a win at Circuit Zandvoort, where they also came second overall in the race. Lecertua and Klymenko ended the Silver class in fifth and the overall championship in fourteenth. Lecertua and Saintéloc also participated in the first three rounds of the French GT4 Cup.
