Top speed of GT cars in Monza

I found article about top speeds in Monza from last years event here:
http://www.racingworld.it/fiagt/noti...?idtitolo=0537

... and the fastest was Luca Cappellari - Ferrari 550 Maranello - 310.0 km/h
What a speed for a GT car. This is for sure level of LMP cars.

Does anybody know this years top speds?

As the seasons gone on the current ACO/FIA spec GT1/2s have matched or bettered their 2004 times.

BTW, I keep hearing how the LMPs, particulalrly the restricted LMP900/675s, struggle against the GT1s on the straights, yet when I watched the cars at Silverstone even P2s drove straight past the GT1s, including the Astons.

I guess top speeds are in the same ballpark, but the LMPs reach their top speed much quicker than the GT1s.
