Porsche dominates dressage practice: Falken Motorsport wins both 24-hour qualifying races – News – VAU-MAX

After the Falken Motorsport Porsche team won the first race of the Ravenol 24h Qualifiers at the Nürburgring, the team also won the second race on Sunday. In general, Porsche cut a very strong figure in the dress rehearsal for the show season, while Mercedes-AMG, for example, remained reserved despite a strong line-up and did not show their true performance. BMW, on the other hand, showed how good the M4 GT4 is in second place on Sunday. Ferrari and Aston Martin, on the other hand, play a lower position and did not allow themselves to appear on the cards. And Audi? After the official withdrawal of factory support, the Scherer PHX team – still with factory Audo drivers at the start – gave no impression that they could not and would not go for victory. This year, both races were also part of the famous Nürburgring endurance series.
