Four BMW 320s in the first four places - that was the result of the Salzburgring round of the ETCC. This was made possible after the retirement of the Grano/Werginz BMW 635 while the AMG Mercedes had a head gasket failure after in the warm up.
It could have been a 5-way BMW 320 victory had not Kelleners made a mistake at the pit entrance, freshly rebuilt: he slammed into the barriers, so now the private Kindlmann BMW 320 took the flag first, with Kindlmann and Quester behind the wheel. The BMW brigade was followed by an Audi duo, with Seikel/Trint winning the class.
