Overview

  • Verstappen and Chris Lulham shared the Emil Frey Racing Ferrari 296 GT3 to win NLS9 on the Nordschleife.
  • After starting third due to a fog-delayed qualifying session, Verstappen grabbed the lead at the start by pouncing on an error from Frank Stippler.
  • Verstappen clocked a 7:51.514 lap, reported to be within two seconds of the official benchmark for the circuit.
  • Lulham managed the final stints and took the flag after six hours, finishing 24 seconds ahead of the Ford Mustang No. 6 of Stippler and Vincent Kolb.
  • The victory came in a roughly 110-car field, with some leading SP9 teams not present according to reports, and followed Verstappen reportedly completing his Nordschleife licence laps two weeks earlier in a Cayman GT4.
