Car info:
As a support act to the German Grand Prix (compare that to Zandvoort...), another round of the GT championship took place at the Nürburgring. 33 starters, excluding Herbert Müller who had homologation problems with his Pantera. So the Porsche competition consisted mainly of two Chevrolets. Fitzpatrick scored the first sub-9 minutes lap, close to a time of a BMW CS, good enough for pole position. He started badly, waiting for the flag to drop, while the other competitors knew that the raising of the flag meant (this year!): off we go. He was 8th at the first corner, but was in the lead after lap one, followed by Neuhaus and Haldi. Only Hoffmann could stay anywhere close to the Porsches, while Andersson had to start from last place but was tenth after lap 1. Fitzpatrick kept lapping below the 9 minute border and was never in danger of losing the race. Neuhaus finished second, Schickentanz third. |
