No surprises after practice in Calder; all Sierras were in front, but the BMW’s were not so far behind as before. Some started on slicks and had to cope with adventurous handling. Ludwig first lost first gear, then the differential broke; but to change that, the Eggenberger mechanics did not take longer than 14 minutes. |
