Pictures

The very last race of the Group 5 Rennsportmeisterschaft, and although the championship hadn’t been in the best of shapes over the last few years, this race on the “Betonschleife” wasn’t bad at all. This was helped by the fact that Ludwig retired, and we got to see a fight in division 2 between Niedzwiedz (with a short-stroke engine), Heyer and Müller Jr. Müller Jr was just as quick as the old master Heyer, and when the latter fell back with intercooler problems, Müller Jr finished second behind Niedzwiedz.
In division 1, Wollek and Winkelhock tried to get rid of some troubles from the past; Wollek had been on pole with a magnificent 47,36 seconds but in lap 6, Winkelhock tried on the outside, hit the Porsche which went up in the air and landed with damaged front suspension. Wollek was furious, but Winkelhock had a different opinion - of course. Winkelhock won the race while Wollek finished second. On the rostrum, Wollek’s elbow hit Winkelhock’s cross - by accident?

The 2-litre rennsport trophäe seemed to go Audi’s way when Boller retired; but the third engine failure of the weekend ended Wolf’s dream; Selzer won the class. König won the M1-class ahead of champion Henzler.
