BMW was superior this weekend, despite the TWR Rovers now having an indestructible rear axle, but his brakes were not up to the heat. The pit stops pushed the Percy/Walkinshaw car as low as 16th at the line, the only surviving Rover. Competition now had to come from Volvo or Ford, but they were unable to match the BMW’s speed - they finished 2nd to 6th, with the second Schnitzer BMW in between. The real fight was in Division 2, where Snobeck beat the Linder BMW of Vogt, who was still happy with second in the championship, a single point behind the luckless Percy.
