The second race weekend of the Touring Car Golden Era offered thrills and drama at its best.
Yannik and Ralph lined up in P14 and P16 in their BMW E36 Supertouring cars. Both drivers nailed the start and climbed into the Top 10. Unfortunately, a light tap from a rival sent Ralph spinning into the gravel ending his race. Yannik kept his cool, sliced through the field, and grabbed P3 overall – what a drive!
In race 2, Ralph had to start from the back after his DNF from race 1. He was gaining ground fast until a flat-spotted front tire forced an early end. Yannik kept the momentum and fought hard against former professional drivers Kris Nissen and Sebastian Asch. After holding P2 for half of the race, Yannik finished P4 in the end, once again taking the win in the STW class.
