Overview

  • A sudden power outage in the pit lane and race control forced a red flag 1.5 hours into the 53rd 24h Nürburgring.
  • At the interruption, David Perel held the lead in the Kondo-Racing-Ferrari #45 after ten completed laps.
  • Pole-sitter Manthey-EMA-Porsche #911 dropped to seventh following its scheduled stop before the blackout.
  • Restart order will be based on lap nine standings and adjusted by each car’s mandatory pit stop duration.
  • Refuelling pumps and timing monitors went offline during the outage, and technical crews are working to restore power before resuming the race.
