Marcus tres takeoff Mario sugan Gabriela Keanu 25 points between them in the pro-am in silver Yankee she'll max cobalt the head of Simone canal and Abbott Udell there are only six points between those two and also trapped in the mix you've got down become poor German lesson because they are a further 16 back but with 50 odd offer over the course of the week at they could also stay in the mix it's going to be an interesting race this we might have a title to resolve but ideally it's going to go down to the wire so Ricardo van der ender he's going to be the second Drive of the pole city car you and Makar starts Ricardo's with Dakota Ricardo starting at the Nurburgring on pole position yeah you're happy about that and it's finally not raining when GZ board comes out how about astok is that I think the whole atmosphere here with all the fans or whatever it's great to have sunshine on the Nurburgring I always bring my shorts but a warm winter jacket as well so you never know who might get snow this afternoon but to leave a position in the egg tourism for we're delighted and not just today but also tomorrow turn one looks pretty tricky inside or outside I prefer to be inside on pole let's see how I go thank you very much it's been the cult of each day that because it's really gathered BLDC rising star you and Makar has quantified it on pole for this Africana band and on pole for tomorrow's race then have a 16-bit KTM Patrick neither Hauser and Reinhold popular and its company the Hauser who will go first the graphic at the moment is qualifying time that will start so you and Makai goes first number 8 vm w alongside barrier suit second rope brother Monty neither Hauser now Gabrielle EP armor could be a class winner in the championship let's hear from him next it's very hot down here on the grid now Nurburgring is known to be a low friction track are you gonna be managing your tires today or looking to manage yeah well we are fighting for the program so we are quite far in front of the competition so we will not need to go for every millimeter so but you know we still have to push so I think we will take it's somewhat reasonable and then see where we are come on it would be nice just to overtake them wouldn't it it would be it will be but they look very strong in qualifying and realistically I don't know if we have it but we would try for sure Gabriela Piana along with Mary Sue going for pro-am honours as I say the 25 points back so the Carver trying to beat Marquez poverty and looting tracks is a long long way back on the gritty factors of the seventh row with the Prescott so you will see there is a very small came in 7 1 8 or even yeah promote the Swiss driver and as it's a 7 1 8 type Cayman it's numbered 7 1 8 so a prank relation up the grid

between 20 and 30 minutes very shortly we will be getting underway so there is an ender ender car should say with the wheel of it you and Mac I came from legends into British GT Carrera Cup GB and now into international racing and interesting Li we don't see it very often he will do the same to did as his brother Dan McHale I double winner at Monza in the for sure McLaren starting on the fourth row the grid so Dan has had the honor of doing the winning this year but you and let's have a poll position able to take great delight early looking at the data and show that to his brother the pace car as it is leaves the line sets off ready to take the cars into this formation that ready to get the start of the penultimate round the 11th race of the GT before European series underway it's been another ultra competitive season we've had some great racing driving standards have improved was well over the course of the year we had a few dramas and last season's championship a fundamental that's a great racing this year at the variety is still there for all to see you've got powdi Mercedes as departing BMW McLaren Ginetta KTM Porsche al P and a real mix of car they trickle down towards the arena turns one way around to four meets you through there get the rock line you could be in real trouble falls down wiser so we'll borders to go back to the Academy Motorsport team has had to stand down sure I didn't see it yesterday the pattern but unable to race this weekend so fiddly Hutchison drafted into the car having been out at the duty-free Wattpad GT World Challenge Reiter the art of the day he will start his race race - from the rear of the grid having a qualified the car this is how the silver cup looks thank you shield cobalt versus clap and new del with Makai and lesson just just within striking distance depending on what happens in this race as far as um kind ricardo Vanda and are concerned they're too far back to challenge with title good games place though was this badass post bit of the best place of the McCullough brothers yet to be resolved as well field weaving around getting the warmth into the Ferrari tires on which everybody runs within this championship heading down to turn eight to the foot of the hill [Music] public road goes underneath the circuit cars climb back up the hill through the shoe bar caress and is it going to be you at my car to hang on to the advantage here Ricardo van der ezzor I've had podiums this year but not weird turn to enter first gained prominence was by the Jacky in from the Horde Ricardo has made a real name for himself winning in GT cars whether it's feeding the ducks or European GT series very very experienced campaigner good character as well so van de ed that versus Marius - Mario su second-fastest but in his first year of car racing here he is pitching for the pro-am all those were about Monte starting third on the grid Rama Monte who was a winner at Misano with co-driver bets the bullet racing Mercedes the cars now head up the hill giving themselves in the two-by-two Noah's Arc formation then and are we going to have titles resolved in this race or is it going to go down to the wire there number four is the car that leads the silver Cup points back to Cobalt sharing with Yankee she'll the lights flash on the safety car the pace car as it is everybody now getting into formation the race director wants them to hold station of course all the way through the chicane all the way around that last corner at turn 17 and then up towards the release of the start of the race one hour of rating mandatory stops between the 20 and 30 minute mark it's the regular format for one hour sro GT race there 66 going through or on a 40 GT racer sequence seater racing it years past as well and into the last turn on the lap they will now carve they're ready to blast away keep an eye on the KTM as well as Patrick neither housing I think that's going to be one to watch as well once we get the cars underway because it's a nipple proposition that so here they come now up towards the timing line a bad start by you and Makai is absolutely swamped good start also by Kevin attorney in the gold came up down Ward's turn one to marry a suit leads ROM I'm on T on the inside line a really good start also by Dan Makai then you had McLeod picks up pace the officials might well have a look at that to see if certain people jumped in but at turn one it is throughout Monte who leads the way - they all get it through safely amazingly yes so these wanted that needs backup intersect places you have Makai Bay have been snout of the rock from the grubs of the BMW Carradine back up the order going down - all to turn one so the cars here come up through turn three about to burst out of the arena for the first time and you had Makai then down in second place having to defend because he's got there the MDM car that's gonna be similar in app isn't it up behind him a great start by can happen because he was on the sixth row the grid however there it is run out multi that leads the way as the curls now drop down hill for the first time what a - running wide at the curb including the each and SOG 55 they're in the hands of walking hours but down through turn eight they come for the first time so up front looking strong for the moment at least is robbed at Monte Campbell bullying racing Mercedes go for a second win of the season this team overseen by Dave price legendary team principal leads the way our alma mater each on the gap the opposition as they're all squabbling amongst themselves here out of the Schumacher s for the first time and then the raft up world turns 11 and 12 the next s sequence through go Cedric Freiburg house in the red Audi and a challenge their lot being made on the inside low down the Aston Martin's in a big hurry here to try and wriggle through they asked drivers the team's a little bit described by the VOP afforded to them this weekend is there you see sim on Kanab coming under attack from the McLaren in the hands of Dan Makai apt also she came for the first time Monte it is ahead of you at Makai their third and fourth simple can act and Makai fourth Italy for sure McLaren can apt sideways and up the curb really how sneaking on but he's under attack the arrow friendly mclaren dwarfed by the BMW that moves over it some of towers about the british car over the line goes run out monte in the lead of the race and at the end of the opening lap second through his you at Makai in third is Kanab fourth is Dan Makai fifth is Zhuge in sixth place Freiburg House seventh is Kim Heechul and oniy in eighth place it is Nina Hauser ninth eat is mapped cobalt a tenth a kill Ravindra [Music] race leaders through the arena there too the second time the bomb Avanti trying to escape now buddy anything you Atma car is going after him he is bringing that gap down once again the cars they now head down into turn four but they do so and then turn five the gap between Monty and McCoy coming down for the race lead Seymour can outrun a bank as many points as he can haven't you Dale he's co-driver news all the circuits this year but they've been a really good combination they want both Paul Ricard races the wind last time out of town 4 to 12 so here leaders accelerate down the hill heading towards turn eight now can tamper Kai find a way up one further place let's see [Music] where they turn and now the Mercedes that's cobalt also try to gain ground because that needs poisons don't forget within the silver cup it's being outscored at the moment by Simone cap was only six between them so it's advantage BMW at the moment there [Music] great leaders now come up towards the chicane and there you can see the way they paired off a little bit as dam Makai gets up the inside of cinmarc can happy to giving be able to go through on the inside he looks he tries but he can't quite do it [Music] through the right-hander now the end of the lap towards the timing light they will come and through has gone on our Monte ahead of you at Makai by three-tenths of a second becomes six tenths of a second evil Oba get looked a little bit less midway around the lap but eyes drop back buddy fight back under braking down at turn one has a really good look late on the brakes is there a gap you're just as almost a brush between them and you and Makai he Benchley understand on the anchors and he's lost momentum lot of times of consequence can that be still fur down the chi for faith soon Fryeburg house july tony is in seventh in eighth place neither house and life is curved all and Europe Indra is in 10th spot here you at Makai crawling all over the back of the leading car but from our multi looking good as a report that something is leaking out on the back of the number eight BMW interestingly so is that going to make life slippery and difficult for those behind that also why you have Makai not able to take the fight here [Music] so down through turn eight there is the car supposedly dropping some fluid can we see an effect I think ever there as it climbs the hill but the report has come from the MDF motorsport eat whose car of course is there it burns hide in the queue [Music] the race leader's then up through the turn 1112 sequence down a car they're looking for McLaren still hustling on behind the VFW at the hands of Simha can happen now they make the run down again towards the term 13 right-hander glass troop speed building all the time at this point have been up toward the chicane [Music] so damper kite crawling all over the back of the FDF BMW yeah find a way by the lead gap sir extending what about Monty bearing in mind he was under attack a lapper goes really clear off into the distance now one point three seconds being the margin the damper Kai having a look to try and find a way by now number sixty one is being reported as being a smokey car that is the top would because Stanley asked to Barton [Music] so the right leaders turn through but the curve goes simple canal I think his level best to fend off is challenged behind the kind doing the chasing there is number eight no sign of anything bare which would necessarily get simple canal agitated a replay of the start now have a look at you of Makai bulks doubt others stream around when the BMW did get up to pace be able to buy back the place and so look he's used to lost three four five of them but there does the cars charge down towards the first corner gets back onto his toes the power kicks in and looking it's back up the inside of his brother in the McLaren Marius Zhuge on the outside line as well that and um acai consolidates that second place so battle on the lead gap extending still between Monti second place you have a kite smokin app still third [Music] twice he might at the kite camp got five away by county as the cars here sweep their way through the chicane even Yakima is next up in seventh place keeping need a house with bay there he is at the Cayman Bianca had a good start but it's easy going to be able to hang on Patrick neither has a very rapid former single seater start tucked up behind the leaders go through them we have got four laps in the put 1.4 seconds being the margin and the fastest lap of the race now jump on her on our Monte's he tries to pull away they're on his toes having a go back to curb all on the grass and everything to try get past leader Howser Kitty slow the car down no he can't off he goes championship leader makes a right mess of turn one gives away even more places Matt kumal made a girl on the inside line got it on the grass off the road and back on again that could have been a whole lot worse boy I've actually got away without any damage he's still in the race but that was a hugely committed moment but did not pay out at all of Matt cobalt them battles on but he has fallen back into what they're going to be 12th place completely commits but of course there the road tapers so he gets onto the grass only now can you really think about breaking what he's got off the grass and eventually runs out of road completely thankfully though didn't involve anybody else in there so the red mist I think was lifted now for Matt to curb all he will regroup how another go try and get the places back he wants lines it's gonna be down in at least 12 now behind Alex Meese there see more can add who he knows about that will be delighted because that really helped him in the championship fight curveball kiss yield but costing themselves points as a consequence of that neither how the flashing the lights at even yakumo's they have the help how we're getting a driving standards fly double-o seven or show you that the balfour hopped up with another car number seven Aston Martin 14th and moment Jamie back about so they're out on his own is romantique through he turns in the Bullock racing car it's deep and Patrick's team Steven himself in this race further down in 30th place but the sister car that went through a number of drivers at the start of the year with accidents so have a race move already act Cassano and could be on for another here way but it's going with to do the second stint in the Claddagh Tracy mercedes-amg GT for but the do of Makai for off the line now far 1.49 17 seconds the last lap of the race with the best lap of the race bar Rama Monte [Music] down towards turn one does that mad silly out KTM lowered out me order more Raqqah portions that play there trying to fend off the BMW opposition and to the Allied racing car comes at each shelf counter doing a good job on the way up into 17th place now from Bob dick Watson well he qualified it's got himself largely up the order and there's more to come I suspect as there is the leader through turns Rama Monty being chased by you and McKay gap bat now third ciment can app and even yeah Kumar has to get really defensive in the Cayman to keep perfect needed Hauser at bay here coming up towards turn 5 they swoop into the left into the right here neither house are in the nipple ktf trois go all the way around the outside is he gonna be able to do it it's gonna be a brave effort if it works he's up the curb and neither house does not make it work no even yakumo manages to hang on to the place then so in the porsche keep sleep Robin if unit KTM at bay there's an incident involving 777 Dominic trommel was being looked at but as they come out of the turn eight right hander here yakumo keeping leader Houser behind in a kill Ravindra is next in the queue look ex-fbi ldcm SPF for racer in the car he shares with the very rapid David greener so Rabindra who starred at Brands Hatch he's not giving up yet he's buying into this battle courtesy of the two delaying one another a gold wrap came and then record Nicola even have come out the wheel of it's on a fend off Patrick Peter Hauser up front then the Mercedes another great charismatic car comes into the chicane getting away Ranma Monte now from you and Makai there is the next of the BMW m4 simonk an app fending off the challenge of dan McCoy in the McLaren the net BMW is mario sook and cedric freiburg house in the audi lines himself up for a go on the inside at turn 17 and he goes through easily gets by on the inside line picks up the place over the timing line now so cedric freiburg house goes through and is he going to be able to shake off the challenge the attention of marius soup no he's not because again that BM has got so much brunt in a straight line Mario sook is back on the outside line the Audi is better through the corners Cedric Freiburg house now secures the place the ex KTM Cup racer before my BMW racer from a Renault race of Cedric Freiburg house so he goes back ahead of mario sook and that gives him finally fifth place through turn five goes you and Mac I'm the actress BMW the MDM BMW is behind the m4 in the hands of silicon app and here again Nina Hauser comes up to attack me van young Kumar on the outside Acura Bindra tries to get in on the act as well then you've got mad silly hog and Alex meets next in the queue so this is all forging old for seventh place in Antioch come over Porsche just keeping the KTM and the Aspen's at bay and of course pal silly how I got the other KTM down alternate they come around the outside of meter house it goes I hear a Bindra neither has a brakes leg goes back a head regains the place through on the inside here [Music] towards the sequence of turns Atma Schumacher s leader Howser you can see that he's defended the place but also how he's lost out relative to in Vania como who he's now clear there in the portrait just up the road ahead you and Makai Marius sued the two drivers off the front row both winners incidentally of the respective class pole position award presented by Cetina as Yakima now powers his way up towards the right hands are here at turn 13 once for up towards the chicane [Music] there's neither house are threw up the Kirby runs and looking further down the order goes through mad silly hog browning up top 10 leaders through lead gap still going up 1.8 seconds there in the background you see the Mercedes and Max Cobalt [Music] another Fiorina come the race leader's bit of debris lying in the road you'll notice in the background there through is eighteen astronauts a key Rabindra ninth on the back and Patrick Meador house are here who was lost ground again to the came and has me of ganya come up as the leaders go through we've got Washington tavernier's Sade's in the pit they understand it that's got drama to come in and we are still about 40 minutes off the pit window opening big flash of the life of our city hog in the blue and white KTM this time to try unsettle those ahead leader house are back of the tail of the caiman so even yakumo's come out of the water Sports Cup in Switzerland Swiss Basie oh he's locked in bracelets which limit base they're perfect comes through turn eight now Porsche slides its way up the hill but now neither Howser has the advantage has he got the grunt in a straight large deep and Patrick coming into the pit lane incidentally if the sister car up out of the leaders neither house on the back of yakumo who rides the curb withstanding the pressure nicely there akia Rabindra goes through and in the background you'll see that also now mascar bots coming into the mix as well there he is so this is the car but pre race with Yankee she led the silver cut point and now Nina Hauser makes his move but us what the gruff to get up alongside the Porsche [Music] run up towards the chicane here and in fact have to need a house up in the power part of the circuits gonna lose out is he almost a key Ravindra comes under hammer go almost contact between the two rabbit has to steer out of it and that means that city hog is all over the back of it and service annex meet in the next to the pro speed performance Astin's up through turn 17 they car over the timing line leader house are right back over the Tel Aviv on EF Como now in the Porsche they're going to be not quite side by side because the KTM is better in the corners it it is on straight-line speed so you can see the way the gap widens a game but Cayman builds the gap in a straight line they break now turn through the right-hander into the arena silly hog is all over the back now meat but he's lost the plate as a consequence so Alex meet Christopher Metis brother he's a head and synagogue tries to go around the outside of the pro speed astern they've both been caught by Matt Skirball who needs to get a move on here and get back into the mix it's giving away points he's running at the moment 12th of the race and that's 10th in class not good news there number one Audi is fifth Cedric Freiburg House inching up on the back of down the cars the other McLaren on the rear of the field is a rather breathless lauki nari parade in the amp cap soldiering off as a safe spot a long way back is there the battle for fourth and fifth places heads down the hill so you got damper Chi in the McLaren keeping Cedric Fryeburg house at bay more bubbles go on down into turn eight as silly or trust get back up on the inside line there against a killer up in against Alex meets rather and another flash of the lights behind mascar bolt so Astin's a purse a DS or ganging up a little KTM now that yellow Mercedes is another significant one in as much as Markus pav route Luca Luca treads share this car it leads by 25 points in the amp Cup Pretoria in the program cut forgive me however the opposition is the BMW of Marius suit and Gabriella piana well that's currently leading the class so a long way back is that car giving away points at about a giveaway another place he's even asked about because penny leader house was called ahead and so also now carbs Aki Ravindra can't quite do it Madame's up on the wrong line into the chicane so it doesn't quite go through the point being just about that number two Mercedes its Paul Finck last and 16th overall needs to be ahead to win the championship in this race is being outscored by its class rival but good news here comes from Indra them up alongside the Porsche as they come across the timing live once again so yak about having lost out to need a Hauser about to meet mugged I fear by the to pro speed a Stearns that line up behind to the outside line goes Rabindra what can be to do behind it that it's silly had behind him there is Massacre ball running in now 12 place overall through the arena once more dad will turn 3 they come and you see that neither house I haven't gone through easily able to get away help of course by eval yeah come out having to go defensive here down they turn heading toward turn five great leader instill Ramar Monte with a gap one point nine seconds over Yuma kite signal can app still in third spot now twenty four mad silly and back onto the tail of Alex me said they dropped out the hill is he going to be able to make a move if he can it's giving me under braking because you'll see here where the power kicks in he loses one to length and also Matco ball gets closer to him as well so mad silly how say with Patrick neither Hauser break through the corners but what he's not great at he's being able to stay with the more powerful cars in a straight line and curve on comes up to have a go on the outside line into the Schumacher s can't find a way through there either but wait for the next twin with it and the KTM is going to be back up with the grunt and go a stands I would have thought right now Remender is stuck behind even a camo so that is for eighth and ninth places cilia on they're down in eleventh and we're only now what four minutes or so away for the pit window opening there is Patrick meter Hauser who is up in to seventh spot next target the class-leading pro-am leaning Marius ooh absolutely together yeah c'mon Rabindra the Porsche and the Aston Martin together as they make the run towards the chicane Vani Vani accommo just hangs on to the place those Aston Martin's running out of ideas that's how to get past the Cayman and he pulling there might be a fight between the two of them here Alex meets might be thinking what if you can't get past let me have a go but I kill Ravindra right there giving chase mad silly have looked good through the chicane good off turn 17 gets up with them as well as they come now over the timing line down towards the arena once more even EF cover hanging on in the position fastest lap of the race by the way to the leader on our Monty who is 1.8 seconds clear of you Makai Cyndi Hawk comes up and have another go at Alex meet Matt Skirball trying to gain ground out of all the bits but also mindful that he doesn't wanna get into trouble city how got the inside through the arena no can't gamble oxide Alec there has to back out of it slot back in behind after church wall they can't once again there is Patrick neither housing who's got away and there is Matt Cowley I'm afraid to say the Academy motorsport Aston in the pit road map making Jonesy squads having another sadly difficult day for speed is there the results are not and map County who'd be going well early on in the race comes into the pit lane and if he does go back out it's gonna become a test session really [Music] so the race leader currently on lap 11 1.8 seconds is the margin overview of Makai sim what can app third banking points here dan Makai for fiber Elspeth synched Mario su and their number for Mercedes K through still 12 that's the leading car brahma monte doing a really impressive job here he's built the lead he's managed to preserve that advantage and all of this of course coming from the second row of the grid the racing mercedes now then up towards turn 17 through that one-hander back on the power rumbles up tall for timing line through goes wrong I'm on T you at makind second spot the margin between the two as well point eight to the eye looks less timings green claims that it is 1.9 eyes deceive yet okay 36 minutes to go pit window Inlet to open and in many cases it's the am the lower graded or the slower driver that goes first so you can anticipate quite a rush into the pit lane when that pit window opens and it will do so after this lap because a flying lap is just over two minutes so for the leaders that window will be open when they get back to the timing light at the end of this lap through goes you and Makai so perhaps overshadowed at the start of the season by brother Dan and his two wins but going nicely here running in second spots him on Canal third they remember he's fighting for silver cup championship honours fourth is the oddity of Cedric Fryeburg house he's there for good Intel that passed down the Chi I said that as a change out of sight sink there is the pronoun leading BMW that's Marius soup so zhuge under attack from leader house earth leader Hauser wants to be released you're behind even yakumo's ready got on with a job here there's the pronoun leading BMW so a good result of the race would be very useful indeed for the championship in number four correction number two Mercedes gets ahead of that car it's game over in the championship of the race to go if the BMW stays ahead just about what an opportunity to try to fight back because it would have reduced that twenty five point margin it's going to be a big asking to race to but it's still alive while while BMW bed now hill as surgery Freiburg House have you put yourself up a step back I sets off in pursuit necks or simul canal but as I say with a pit window now open we are going to have a number of cars I would have thought pitting at the airport this lap shock of your region further [Music] up to the chicane Patrick meter Hauser Brands Hatch winner absolutely fly so from his point of view frustrating he was stuck in the traffic for so long there he's healing for Kai down the pit lane savvy move to give Riccardo Vanda and as much trap time as possible down the pit road that countless the BMW [Music] across the timing guide savant cannot go second searching Freiburg house goes third Paul for this Patrick need a house because there only is you and bike I in but brother Dan is as well and Marius Uxie gonna get van der ender awesome unless said and Gabriella piano all into the race early as it were they're all quick drivers the to pro speed cars are in as well so you can have David greener and white David Altima taking them over there is Marius zu arriving in the BMW that is Dan Makai door opens all German descent land with me all travel side with McLaren 66 from out Monte however still eats the waves the car sets off down the hill once poor it stops cycle through you and Makai helps trap it Ricardo van der ender work done walks away the actress team store to BMW preparers and their down the Chi out of the car perhaps not happy because there's no driver in there's a discussion going on and concern around the front left corner it's keep an eye to that because the keep the sure squad might have a problem see change of seat for Ottoman Allah said and he gets down the chi strapped him in but was there a drop around the front left we seen that car lost the plague didn't actually see the move but it had lost epicenter at Freiburg house in the Audi so you keep your team ready to release that car on instruction or on our monte leads away then Ricardo van de Endor takes over a number eight BMW can he go quicker than the second driver when he gets into 66 Alex Lambert's let's see Ramar Monte stays out for another lap up to the timing line comes like great sounding Mercedes Amex Lambert's has got a class winner in the Nurburgring 24 hours he will take that car over so there's experience in it into the traffic now will be ROM our multi now there is the car that he was battling against early on that's got Ricardo van der end of the wheel there are more stop cycling through incidentally centric Freiburg house in the Audi in the red Audi number one is in the pit road [Music] unfortunately less sin we've taken over number 14 another one that drops back there is Gabrielle a piano at BMW has moved ahead of the McLaren or the pit stops well hasn't it so piano goes through now that could be because the mature team had a problem it could be because the BMW team was subject slightly precipitous with its pit stop time so the officials will have a look and if the stops are to the regulation time Bobbie and alarm the race director will refer it up to the stewards Nicolae Balan adds to the delight of his fan club gets the board number one the Phoenix Brown car and Moses team based a stone's throw from the circuit here regular winners of course of DTM and GT races at the Nurburgring systems it from our multimedia by nine point four seconds from Zamalka as we approach half distance here and it's been a really easy stint seemingly for Marty was he hit the front he'd been able to get away car back to the time now - turns 11 to 12 mount Monte is he going to stay out the very end of the window or is it going to be a pretty much half the race each situation between him and Lambert's we'll see the background going through is the Cayman one of the two allied racing cars sadly the pit lane has claimed a few so we've lost Matt Cowley we've got Steve and Patrick was one in the other bullet Mercedes was lost Mercedes of old leaked data vernier to them an early casualty what Peter it so down the pit lane dives Ramar multi this to hand over to Lambert's the other question is where does that car blend back in relative to Ricardo van den de who's already up to speed if you like there he is he knows what the car is doing it is what the track is like so their van der end up accelerates down towards turn five now the first one is under investigation for speeding in the pit lane that's the Bob hammer Alessandra Giovanelli car [Music] driver change is out get on her haughty and he walked away and gets and it's Lambert's is that car going to rejoin before this car comes over the timing line [Music] [Applause] so also in let's come sim or cat to give way to the very impressive Alec you del and Luke eat rats in as well to give waste more experience Marcos paba rude in the pro-am championship leading Mercedes so that's going to be interesting to see how that car up to Mercedes fares gravity to the one part one BMW talking BM let's break the Ekrem car here Ricardo van de anda hustling on Monte has still got another 30 seconds or so he stopped to serve so there the car is the bullet mechanic to look at the stop watches see Monica Knapp was dumb and at you dare ready to go here comes van der and van into the chicane what can you do relative to the race lead and we eat over the curb away goes Alex Lambert's down the pit road so driver change done at the bullet Mercedes camp 66 ready to rejoin here comes van de Endor he's not going to get the race lead on the pit stops but can he take the fight to the Mercedes because the Mercedes only now can accelerate out of the pit lane it's going to be closed between the two of them Lambert's can't afford to cut that white pit lane line either he doesn't he breaks for the corner but the two leaders are virtually as one and Vanda and even think about the inside line they're together they make the run now into turn two and Ricardo van der and given his experience given the fact this is a carbon from pole position for both races I will afford he be able to find the way through now get himself into the lead of the race with 28 minutes to go but he needs to strike now before Lambert gets into a rhythm [Music] towards turn five bake up band and it shows his nose on the inside trying to unsettle the Mercedes what about the approach now the turn six does he make a move there no he does not focus a need hangs on of the place they drop downhill once again here so van to end up who's a lap further interest in it comes down through turn eight and it's Lambert's perhaps a little bit deep into the corner there but he's maintaining the position and if anything extending the gap coming out of the corner so van de Enders gonna have to use all of these years of race craft here to try and find a way past that Mercedes and he gets way up the curve on the inside mows the lawn as well he trims the grass they're powering his way up tools turns 11 and 12 he's back onto the tail of that Mercedes trying to force a mistake out of Lambert's butts and it's Lambert seemingly he's not going to crack not yet anyway so Ricardo van der ender it's not much he's not whining GT forecast over the years comes down the hill heading toward turn 13 then the round towards the chicane and Patrick neither Hauser yet to stop to give away to Reinhardt Koffler is the on the road leader but this is the real lead situation Lambert's versus van der ender the BM looked the quicker but he's driven spectacularly anyway up the curb everywhere van der Hendon darting around in the mirrors of Alex Lambert's try to force a mistake out of him but Lambert's hold his ground comes out of turn 17 now towards the line let's see which is quicker in a straight line that Mercedes or the BMW both big grunty cars pass the pitch they come down to turn one into the arena van der ender on the outside line is he going to go all the way around the outside would he get the switchback let's see braked ducks up the inside can he get the drive out of the corner no an exam Bert's hangs on to the advantage but only just the launch a spurs gear hold on audi incidentally is under investigation to be too short on its pitstop there out of the left turn three count the race leader's the margin over the line between these two cars was effectively nothing at all so close were they was just four tense between them and Vanda and again crawling all over the back of the Mercedes the BMW again you might just argue is - slightly better through the corners than the Ender losing apps life to the bigger engine the Sade's in a straight line downhill they drop now [Music] so as the cars coming to turn eight again Lambert sees why he did that on a Peugeot but he's even wider this time and the danger is that compromises the run on the hill Vander ender not close enough to really capitalize on that but what's significant is that corner two laps in a row tiny little error coming out of the leading car that rides the curbs once again there Patrick neither Howser to give way to write-up Koffler with that very distinctive bodywork at the KTM the whole roof line which screen opens forward that one piece of bodywork and there are the race leader's then for the 17th time heading down the hill 66 the leading car then in the hand still of Alex Lambert I'm going to go defensive here because Ricardo van de anda yet again as he leaps over the curb filling the mirrors trying to be strap a leader pop sling him around the circuit now they come now into the right at turn 17 over the timing line once more so this now becomes the real lead battle now obviously what the gaps are our second between the rock Cora's away and their Lambert's goes defensive in Tudor bar band and a level within the error lap ago is he gonna be able to find a way through this time doesn't seem to have caught Mike the drive out of the corner so Lambert's hangs on the way Vander ender with 24 minutes to go trying to different places see what the reaction is of the Mercedes looking at where it's strong where it might be weak where he might be able to force a mistake out of him how much curb he's using abandoned ender is using a lot of curb that's for sure a drive-through penalty is being given to number 31 Oh Alessandra Giovanelli for speeding in the pit lane but car is a 24th place anyway so it's not really at the races they're coming into turn six now Alex Lambert's hangs on to the advantage point five eight four of a second coming on to this lap [Music] don't he'll Mercedes vs. BMW to pucker German brands both with very successful pedigrees at the Nurburgring and there the gap opens up again coming out of turn eight you see the way that the power of the Mercedes carried it forward here though the bravery Evander ender through the Schumacher s skimming the gravel even this time risky the Pirellis brings him a little bit closer but seemingly now Lambert's of this lab has got the measure of the BMW because panther ender got able to bring the camp down enough just looking at that VFW is he dropping away it is has he got a problem or is this Lambert's being able just to drive smooth and and get into a rhythm but van der ender not now looking as competitive as he was a lap or two ago up towards the chicane we'll see what the sector's reveal as they come through in the second sector of this laughs yeah van tranh was lost six tenths of a second [Music] and not Lambert speeding up particularly they're not something personal best sectors so how's the ekor is BMW got some sort of an issue let's see over the timing line Lambert's leads then Mercedes goes through and that lap was a too many 7.42 87.9 from Ricardo van de Endor he's in second spot but the gap which was half a second he's now at 11:10 so he is dropping back dropping back significantly [Music] I am up the curb we're out and get to the end of the first sector so we see well Atlanta and it is still losing time here or whether he's being able to count back at the Mercedes to the eye the gaps a little bit less this time as they come out of the arena down towards turn five so maybe it was just a slight aberration or banner Enders partner sees the cars now but turn out of the why to turn six to the sector Beebe they will come now it should be about a minute that they do that in scepter one is completed by Lambert's Vanda ender goes quicker by 4/10 so he's back on his toes and he's bringing the gun down once again turn down hill then through turn eight climb through the shoe back arrest now is that gap continuing to come down between Lambert's and Vanda ender again you'd say to the eye yes it is 21 minutes still to go number 100 is getting a pit-stop penalty as well Jessica's gear won't drop a two-second stop go penalty for being short on the mandatory stop so that car has come in to serve it and there is now Kevin jeollado knee having taken over from even yacumo ahead of number 2 of Marcus poverty poverty is 14th fourth in class still giving away points to Gabriela Piana have Angela donate very quick kart racer circuit racer and rally driver of repute as well the gold braided gold livery stays ahead of fatherhood the Norwegian driver as the leaders come across the line it is a gap of 11 tens down to eight tenths of a second there third is Alec you del fourth in the red Audi is the reigning champion Nikolai mother Madsen in fifth place is Reinhart Koffler in the KTM and then sicked Gabrielle a piano just creeping into the shot in the BMW and PR man leading pro-am so we've got silver cup cars at the top five prior meter is six at the moment and why goes Mahlum answered almost swatted aside by Nina Hauser who is coming through gates the place Nikolai mother Madison loses out and ride out confirmatory now country need a house on having taken over goes through 82 what is fourth position so Reinhart Koffler take to the place for KTM up past the Audi Sobel amounts a wider turn womp loses out and Brian Harkin Fleur goes through picked up the place shall I bother about some Mustapha make ours but that was one I'm afraid deep into turn one and that just opened up the door confident in the KTM to pounce it go through [Music] hi Fionna you've got mantra in lesson seven that McLaren dropping away in the second stitch to lock up installed as well eight my David Altman disaster knife max Kerr bolt being massively outscored here by an acute out for the silver cap championship and ten David Rees now another very rapid driver David having raced in the Opel Astra camp in the BMW 235 series as well and going strongly so greener in 10th place behind Yankee seal and they're down hill comes Kevin July Dhoni in 13th Marcus Pavarotti's behind him and he in turn is being reeled in by Oliver Soderstrom on the inside goes the Mercedes levels with the Porsche Pavarotti's nose in front through he will go so the pro-am car ahead and that significantly is Fulford in pro-am pav rod goes ahead of jela Dhoni which means he schools extra points for that pass within the class and that good news as far as the championship aspirations going into tomorrow and concern 97 BMW of Oliver sir destroyed on the back and at the inside of jela Dhoni goes through the Porsche loses two places in quick succession might lose a third here as well because you've now got the Dominic's Rommel Yammer any current be inside trommel's going to go through trouble gets past the pair of them gets past the Porsche get past the BMW as well so Dominic's Rommel does a really good job there getting himself up through the traffic to place he's Gabe but Kevin Jilla Dhoni doesn't have a problem all of a sudden drops way way back incident between Nikolai bother Madsen and Reinhardt cover is under investigation I thought it was just bother Madsen having gone wide but anyway the Audi and the KTM are being looked at by the officials and we've got 17 minutes of the race still to go Alex Lambert's he's now a second ahead of Ricardo van to end at once also he was able to be fed that now that gap is stabilized there is the contentious KTM of Koffler ahead of nicholalala Madsen [Music] down the hill they had till the term eight right-hander third is here at New Delhi American young I serve a driver into the Ferrari World Challenge is a 15 year old coming to Europe this year adding a really good job learning about new circuits three times a winner but that car coming up for attack from the flying Koffler the KTM wasn't get through traffic is really good in clear air is that sort of the leader house roads did well for seeing here with Koffler Nikolai follow Matson is there in fifth place and they're dropping back sick Gabriela piano [Music] so the leading car currently is on lap 20 Alex Lambert's here is Ryan Hawk Koffler on the back of a let you down now you del can't really afford to lose paces because that's not great news they're going to kiss Gila cobalt within the championship so he needs to try to defend if he can either ideally like mother Madison to come back at the KTM the red Audi inching back up all of the tail there of the KTM as they flick through the chicane [Music] need to turn 17 they come now through the right-hander and then over the timing line goes out at you del the gap between him and cough eight tenths wall abouts it comes next and then Gabrielle MP Ana little bit further adrift as they break the beam no further action incidentally between the mother Madsen coffer teams the incident here an apple so ago and Alec you del is under attack now are not conferred getting closer closer closer all the time [Music] so through they turn once again dive down towards turn three to coffer make see smooth dives at the inside easy-peasy that and if that mother Matz is going to have a go as well Alan you del gave plenty of room to the KTM deliberately or unwittingly so much so that Nikolai mother Matt's and challenges but then the power of the BMW kicks in in the almost overlaps the KTM again going into turn five we're a small amounts and challenge here up the inside up the curve is there gonna be contact I'll let you down does not need a fire to risk not finishing and risk point but equally he can't give away places down the hill they come now down Walternate the black BMW staying ahead as they break into the corner mother Matz and dives at the inside and Anna you del gave him racing room as well so on the one hand advisable keep out of trouble don't get yourself into strife on the other hand but keep giving away places but you're giving away point so it's a balancing act here for the BMW driver but Koffler and bother Madson have been looking quicker they've now gone through upfront it still lambert's ahead of Ricardo Vanda and eleven tenths of a second is the gap we have got 14 minutes still to run here [Music] up towards the chicane will approach by knock off from her then I mean the third place there is the leading car finish sweet race for bullets with patrol Stephen Patrick's car a very early retirement but Alex Lambert's are on our Maltese carp still leading the way over the timing mining camps Ricardo van de and in 11 tense back but he's not really been able to make a proper bid for Honor's here surprisingly [Music] then after apricot Evander ended their the actress BMW team which last year has paid for top reliability with the cars and their sort no 8 in the wheel is Alex lamppost have threads his way up toward to turn for now so despite the pressure from behind despite the fact that he's had to come straight into the state and defend from one of the quickest drivers out there Lambert's has driven while in missed it he's responded to everything there's bit thrown at it and hangs on to the advantage service account now down through turn six the Mercedes looking strong intriguing which of course is a gauge what we saw in qualifying where van tenders car was able to go fastest for both of the races taking to pole positions there is Alex Lambert's then down he turns out of turn a makes the climb up the hill that's always a part of the circuit at which that car is stronger any way that Ricardo Van de gente [Music] it's Lambert's who's been a regular in the VLA and he's raised in the BMW 235 challenge came out of karting starting car racing only 2014 there is Ricardo van der ender old stager in comparison chasing along behind him [Music] the race leaders on lap 22 make the run up the hill [Music] therefore third place is right knockoff but now he's 12 and a half seconds back from the leaders and behind him is Nikolai mother Madsen I let you down having lost those two places I've lost quite a chunk of time as well husband they're sick you got Gabriela PR the McLaren seventh of all vanilla said April a smart david edmonds aston martin life yet kiss yields Sade's tenth David Griffiths Aston Martin it's going on in the out come over is that yeah Valerie is ahead of Clemens ila now just need to keep an eye to that as well you're looking at Gabrielle EPR now who is the race leader within pro-am in the [Music] current Sylar is second which means 80 points woj is Paul and were 90 points we just wondering if that's enough to have given okay Matt Sylar and Pascal back around the championship to the inside line their dives yang kiss Healy goes through to preserve the pace against David greased-up at David Greece it was all over the back of him now David experience driver from the Opel Astra cut for the BMW 235 series of books for away by as they come into turn three but the Mercedes just has the advantage for the moment [Music] down they come into turn 5 this is our third fourth fifth change seanica del leaves the door wide open for Ryan Hart Kaufman to go through and that also gave the impetus to Nicolai father Matz and he was able to think about making a move as well in a straight line the BMW had the momentum almost overlap but KTM again but they're here up the curve squeezing at the inside Nicolai mother Madsen and as he came out of the corner got the job done and it you doubt it elects to back points rather and keep on fighting or does he because they're the Audi has to swap back in behind but the move eventually did come here at turn eight and through wall amounts and secures the base part of it so there are examples up towards the end of lap 23 these specialists are very easy now Vander ender is no longer in the heart he's going to be good for a second because he's well well clear of Ryan Hawk Koffler unless that car has a problem remember number 80 MW we had fears reported early on in the race that it was leaking fluid well I never saw anything but maybe he does have a problem now because Vander ender he's not being able to stay with the leading car his lap times are comfortable but he is be caught by the next two behind Koffler and Paula Madsen happy just fractionally quicker over those last couple of laps there is 24 which is now al gangam are aware that the KTM another graduate of the KTM crossbow battle over the timing line it goes 24 down in 11th place next target debut Greece there as there you can see my David Orban under attack from Yankee seal who's fended off breeze then and now goes after the sister car approach be the pro speed asked it's having a much happier time whisper it than the manacle Jones Academy card because we've lost because Stanley Tom woods car as well as the Macau leak are now tragedy fair he's number four again kiss eel and because that's gaining ground and because Allen you doubt is losing places making the championship situation going into tomorrow's race very interesting indeed eight minutes change on my caucus the cars come here down Ward's turf five [Music] under braking the gap down further Mike David Altman graduates of the jump before before category increasing attack now from P and Q shield down they had to alter Nate over the timing I believe got last timeout to two point two seconds so Ricardo van de anda dropping away just wonder whether kata love might be able to get any where near attacking him before the end of the race don't rule it out I think is the moral of this because he is certainly having the go and going absolutely flat out he is pretty down that the Vantage there we have it a trip hanging off the back yeah kiss yield life he runs over all that means that his eighth in the silver cup eight two points therefore [Music] there you see the butt of diffuser hanging off the back of the anchor seals cars he now heads in toward the UK so still hunting down my David Orban there Ted he's David greener in the second of the Pro speeds cars that's why I Pro Sport I should say the pros be pro sports forest after all the timing line counts by David Altman now flash the lights from David Rees there behind the lot of them you've got a younger Meyer in the KTM so the pro sport twin sandwiching the Mercedes is the light but rub car and a problem for the poor shoe that a puncher to the left rear might've got pot for the car of Nicolas sure will limping towards the pit lane so and pitted for her flat left rear a danger of using too much curb going particularly through the Schumacher s that so Nicolas sure late race is heading for the pit lane a new tile and getting back into the race the fight here for eighth ninth tenth continues Mike David orphan then a quicker at the moment of the tune-pro smoke assassins diving down auditor five yeah missile hunting him down unable at the moment to make a boob against tip of Hagemeyer next to the cue and Nicolas shell with a puncture is into the pit lane but losing place after place after place so Lambert Felina now by 2.4 seconds van der end as a Koffler is for his 11 seconds she's not really coming down being stabilized really that by the guard over and end up [Music] they're going through his david reason or once more 10th e-grants and the abstinence of the mercedes here pretty evenly matched difficult for Kissel to make a move against the ounce on the head it's difficult for me aster behind to make a move against Kissel so greet her TED Fortman 8 there's the number 2 xx paced Mercedes Johan banner up who is the leading at the moment ahead of Clarence Tyler and then third within the cup is under error with his KTM so yeah a veteran goes through tellers lofty [Music] whether it's Bob's in both races and again winner asado banner of Belk are regular and so rates are in the BMW 235 series 20th overall as you see on the Lumia angle janessa behind derivative of F and then Cameron Tyler is in 22nd spot [Music] four more minutes of the race to go provisionally I would offer you that time it's ila and one particle bath when I'll target to Whitby I've come in this race when a web conformation is there Ricardo Van Deventer climbs the hill 2.3 seconds back going over this lap behind Alex Lambert can he have one last push well interestingly he's just taking six tenths out in the first sector so that's about the end is he driving within himself is he looking after the machinery of everything occasional pushes or it Lambert's on a slow lap here to the end of the middle sector they are about to count but certainly 2.3 seconds at the start of the lap and 6/10 shaved off that margin in Sector one hello [Music] Sadie's through now the climb into the chicane so Alex Lambert's gonna get two more laps out of this race makes the run up toward term 17 he braked turns into the corner now Vander and he gained six tenths in Sector I lost seven tenths x2 so you gain you lose it seems there they are across the line and 2.3 seconds going onto the penultimate lap becomes a margin of two point six so again the Mercedes is the stronger now look at the background the KTM coming off the last corner goes past the pits and through goes Ryan Hawk off and that gap is down from 11 seconds to nine point nine I think he's going to get there into that but it'll be interesting to see how close he does get before the very end of the race [Music] [Music] next battle here is kisi and attacking the Aston Martin down two walls ternal up and baby greener ahead does he stay ahead this time let's see as they turned through sorry wrong a stirred by David orphan keeping his place there for so ate the spot might David Altman just ahead a PC Albert now that the Mercedes has shaken off the challenge of David greeting her behind he's looking for a way through Yank isseul fires now out of turn poor and finally the Mercedes looks like he's got the problem enter but look how defensive my David Altman goes moves one side and then the other keeps yeah and kissy Alibag into turn 5 they go kiss he'll for about half a gap on me inside there then thought better of it graduates the Audi TT Cup and also Lamborghini Super Trofeo the ponies driver yeah kiss heel drops down here has a long long look to the inside line certainly served notice have been tenth there but not able to find a way by minute and a half on the clock and Counting Nicolas Charles Porter I'd mentioned with his puncture got to the pits stay there from the race that's going no further and here the fight is still on 8th place overall as they come through the Schumacher s [Music] again because he how to curve they take now uphill they head into the left and right for the key turns 1112 the leader is on his last lap but now having to Lambert's there he is down all to turn one with a margin of three and a half seconds over Ricardo van der ended up game over isn't it that's the job done as far as the bullet Mercedes is concerned interesting third on the grid and easily able to really dominate the race from our multi did the first in the Maserati DeFeo champion French GT racer and brought pan endurance racer here Alex Lambert's takes the car over but the Icarus BMW much expected to show pace not able to really do so still wonder whether something is not quite right there giving it slightly yoyo race pace but also the fact that because it lost ground off the start but anyway we'll get to the bottom of it on shore before race to tomorrow they will turn the challenging situations to factor it here as you see 66 Mercedes with half a lap having downhill here downhill goes 66 the race leading Mercedes half a lap to run having ups Lambert's then race winner act Misano you've got to say that he and Rama Monty who's done most of these racing of late at the French GT series have made a very good combination of drivers good pace admittedly did get involved in the example race stopping X good but that aside he said it made up for here as it comes up through turned 11 12 flip the car through that sequence of corners the run down here heading once more on that long long climb up towards the chicane this time around though it'll be the last run up towards the chicane and then to a second victory of the season a job well done for for Bullock team so Steven Patrick squad losing his car but a race win is going to come for the sister got here into turn 17 then number 66 Mercedes set for the race win Rama Monte Alex Lambert win rate swamp in the GT for European series here at the Nurburgring second across the line it is going to be the address BMW in the hands of Ricardo van de anda and you and McCoy and Ferb will be Reinhardt Koffler and the Patrick Nita Hauser seven point nine seconds our drift at the end they're set to win pro-am Gabrieli piano and co-driver marius xub and that is a fourth victory of the season for the big flash of the lights through PR because that keeps the championship hopes alive [Music] still they pour over the line the sense seventh who's going to be eight my David Altman just ninth place should go the way of Yankees yeah it does ahead of David greener and then ok angermaier ended everything the ktf there's the am winning car Johnny birds and your hand Ventura for a class wet [Music] but let's see what that gonna do to the championship with Karen Tyler second with Pascal Backman and the opposition up to third in fact so David lingerie Eric may have gained a place I think that's now enough to keep it alive isn't it going into the last race tomorrow so the amp Cup will go down to the wire so we'll silver Pro out the honors its silver caps regimen switching now shifting towards a new Dell and saman canal there's the flag vent to fan room and relative bets as the amp Cup winners [Music] bavander tender and you and Makai that is what a fourth second place of the earth still no wind could happen in the last round checkered flag is still being waved of the sideways BMW their powers its way up towards the timing line if you consider strowman therefore Bullock racing romantic Alex Lambert's the winners of race one here in the second victory of the season got the factor for the championship they knocked in every round had they dumped a full season it does rather make one the car combination could have done for silver cup honors run-out Monty Alex Tampax they're taking the race win here [Music] confirmation of the where the top 15 came across the line Alex Lambert's ROM Almonte take the wind from Ricardo Van de Endor and you and makai right Huck off the third sharing with Patrick neither Houser ahead of Cedric Fryeburg house and Nikolai small amounts and fits in Mont canapa now that you del from Mario sook and Gabriella Piana who went pro-am ahead of Dan Makai Benjamin less Sam hey Dwight David Altman and Alexander nice then a C's Yankees here the max cobalt with David Rees in the 10th Cherie with a kill Rabindra 20th sorry 21st is where you find the am cut wing carp the sellers not racing team Mercedes of you have Manorama John dropped the Hat sellers lagna team you might remember with its Corvettes in the days of FIA GT and the gt1 World Championship and sadly quite a few retirements out of all of that with the cars certainly of Academy and allied racing in the war so - we lost even Patrick and on take data Bernier of dovey demo very early as well at Mercedes we lost with dramas so drivers shortly will make their way up to the podium [Music] the team is making their way out of the pit lane ready to get themselves ready for tomorrow because they have an early race tomorrow race to the Sunday program there's the winning car back from the Bullock racing team for our monte absolutely overjoyed noisy reception before Alex Lambert's are on our multi then opens the door out clambers Alex Lambert's great effort by both of them and Alex tan boots to withstand the pressure being threatened by Ricardo Van Daan day she would well proud of that [Music] you have a guy Ricardo van to head that celebrate second place BMW just a little bit breathless seemingly against the purple Mercedes let's try and catch a wave if we can from the winners Alex Lambert's and Robin multi guys the massive congratulations Alex well done for a holding on to that lead right at the end ed were you feeling the pressure from the back oh it was it was hard at the beginning yeah I mean the last laps were bit easier but yeah I mean we won and that's what scone and excuse Alex for the emotional language it gets very very very intense down a dozen a row man happy to be back on the podium again yeah yeah especially after us on what is good good to be very well quite honor cannot vote so after a win and the progress in me in Misano it was is really good to be there once again and since the beginning of the weekend the car fit quite okay we knew we knew that the B&W were quite fast so it was quite difficult to toward women at the back but in via and I did it I did it the two minute and we are there so well done thank tomorrow guys can they do the double well on that page don't bet against it because it was an excellent job done by both Rama Monte making a name for himself after officially coming to prominence in the Maserati Trofeo then in French GT racing we have seen him at the block pen endurance series as well but there are so many drivers in that because it's such a busy grid and get a bit overlooked right there if Ricardo van der end up second place let's hear from him Ricardo you may be slightly disappointed with this or maybe happy I'm not really too sure we thought you were gonna have it I know let me - me too but let's be honest if you can drive this beauty here you're always happy well I must say a llama writes a monthly they drove really well and there was just a little bit too big today but we'll get them tomorrow watch this watch this watch this space thank you very much so Ricardo Vanda and a magnanimous in defeat you and Makar his co-driver doing a good job as well right what does all this do welcome to the champ ship in a moment race results again first of all just to confirm Lambert's Monte ahead of Vander endemic I then Koffler Anita Hauser Soviet Freiburg House nickel iron modern Madsen fourth now smoke came out a bit you Delfy relative to kiss he loved Kerbal ninth overall and that's eight four points because Gianna and Zhuge sixth are pro-am they still advantage their nap you del going into race too but it's a shame that that car lost a couple places because it means their championship advantage you're going to be slightly reduced over what it could have been one point it's looking very promising indeed wasn't it for them so the drivers making their way towards the podium and the teams instantly doing their points computations to work out exactly what is required going into tomorrow's race [Music] low down the order German band about 17 and motion also Road retirements too frustrating way for some of them to end today hopefully the cars can be made good for tomorrow's final one art race the last round of the duty for European series quick look at the highlights of the race that began with a slow start by you and Makar but then the BMW got its
