Jaguar won this race on home soil, but not without some drastic measures, like passing under yellow and the second Jag blocking the leading BMW - according to the German press. The Jaguars were dominant in practice, and with the help of soft rain rubber Walkinshaw soon had a lead of 17 seconds over Kelleners. After one hour, the Jag was still in the lead, now over 40 seconds, followed by the BMWs of Kelleners and Heyer and the second Jaguar of Fitzpatrick. Kelleners came in for a tire change, and then the leading Jaguar had a lengthy stop of 56 seconds. Now the Schnitzer car of Heyer was in the lead, while the second Schnitzer car lost a wheel shortly after Stuck had taken over from Brun. In the end, the car still finished third. |
