Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
- Title fight between Audi teams in #gt2europeanseries comes to a head
- Kelvin van der Linde remains leader of the DTM standings
- First victory for Audi RS 3 LMS in TCR South America
With seven victories in eight races, the Audi R8 LMS GT2 remains the benchmark in the #gt2europeanseries. Before the finale, it is clear that the title winners will be driving Audi cars in the debut season of this new #racing series. In the DTM, #kelvinvanderlinde maintained his championship lead with a cool head, while the Audi RS 3 LMS won for the first time in TCR South America and clinched eight more trophies worldwide.
Audi R8 LMS GT2
Excitement in the European title fight: Before the finale of the #gt2europeanseries at the beginning of October it is certain that the first Pro-Am title in the new #racing series will go to a privateer team with an Audi R8 LMS GT2. On the other hand, it remains completely open after the fourth event at Spa whether the High Class #racing team can maintain its lead as the front runner or whether PK Carsport can still turn the tide. At its home race in Spa, the Belgian chasing team took a big step forward. Peter Guelinckx and Bert Longin celebrated their second consecutive victory with PK Carsport on the seven-kilometer Ardennes circuit. Mark Patterson and Anders Fjordbach from the High Class #racing team missed qualifying after an accident in free practice. Patterson started the first race from the back of the field for High Class #racing, while Guelinckx held second place in the early stages. After the driver change, Longin stayed second through a long yellow period, overtook the car in front of him at the La Source turn on the restart and ended up winning by three-tenths of a second. Opponent Mark Patterson improved to sixth place in the first half of the race. But after Anders Fjordbach took over the cockpit, he had to line up directly behind the safety car on the exit from the pit lane. A puncture subsequently forced the team to make another pit stop, dropping the High Class Audi back to tenth place. In the second race, Patterson/Fjordbach scored fifth place while PK Carsport finished seventh. As a result, the lead of Patterson/Fjordbach in first position has almost halved from 26 to 14 points. 50 points are still up for grabs at Le Castellet on October 3. The Audi R8 LMS GT2 has now won seven of the first eight races of the GT2 European Series
