| The class of 1988 during practice. The Eggenberger cars (Niedzwiedz/Ludwig here) were hardly changed. |
A Wolf Sierra for Hahne/Allam. |
 |
 |
| The Bemani Toyota (Müller/Schmiedlin) sideways, followed by the Czech M3 of Vanicek/Tomasek. |
The Kaj Bornebusch/Ulf Larsson Sierra was very white. |
 |
 |
| A BTCC Sierra for Goode/Newman. |
A works Nissan for Percy/Grice. |
 |
 |
| One of the Bigazzi M3's... |
... and an M3 for Bychl/Faubel. |
 |
 |
| Yet another M3 here - the Schnitzer car of Ravaglia/vd Poele, the eventual winners. |
A Spanish M3 with Pareja/Albacete. |
 |
 |
| The Prodrive BTCC car of Sytner/Weaver/Smith - second overall. Their teammates came in third overall. |
Something for the Dutch - the M3 for van Dedem/Krab, fourth overall. |
 |
 |
| It wasn't raining the whole weekend though. Here are the works Sierras. |
This ancient BMW 635 did not make the race; di Goia and Févrot were non-starters, though they had qualified 18th.
|
 |
|
| The polesitter: Eggenberger Sierra with Ludwig and Niedzwiedz. |
|
 |
 |
Third on the grid was this Wolf-Sierra.

Another view of the grid.

The Dutch BMW mid-field.
|
Toyota entered a big car in this race...
|
 |

... and quite some smaller ones. This is the Corola of Katsers/Burton, DNF.
|
Fermine/De Liedekerke finished third in class.
|
 |
 |
Van den Eeckhout/Van Esch finished second in class.
|
But this Spanish car retired.
|
 |
 |
Soper and Dieudonné would have an engine failure.
|
Oppitzhauser and Moczár retired as well.
|
 |
 |
Laffite and Vogt retired the Bigazzi M3.
|
Bychl and Faubel retired too.
|
 |
 |
The Czechoslovakian M3 had a different livery on each side, it seems. They finished sixth.
|
Wollstadt and Hatje finished seventh overall.
|
 |
 |
| Fifth overall: the Bigazzi BMW of Martin/Thatcher. |
Fourth overall: the Dutch BMW, van Dedem behind the wheel here.
|

It wasn't a Sierra day: both cars retired.
