Overview

• Organisers reported more than a dozen tyre failures over the weekend and temporarily allowed a fourth tyre set per team after an extraordinary meeting.
• Nico Hantke crashed heavily in private testing at the Fahrerlagerkurve and was cleared without major injury, and Emil Gjerdrum’s race-two tyre failure led to a 20-minute barrier repair.
• Former BMW works driver Jörg Müller said he would not support holding a GT3 event there, as ADAC and local officials evaluate potential modifications and overall suitability for a future DTM round.
• On track, Dörr Motorsport’s Ben Dörr and Guilherme Moura de Oliveira won Saturday in a McLaren 720S GT3 Evo to deliver the brand’s first ADAC GT Masters win of the GT3 era, with Tim Zimmermann and Leyton Fourie winning Sunday for FK Performance.
• Roughly 10,000 spectators attended the ADAC Racing Weekend, and the series now moves to the Red Bull Ring for two sprint races scheduled within the DTM program.
