A good clean race from both Wang and Ralf to secure a points finish in class in Race 1. They did start off on the slick tires even though the track was still wet from the heavy rain earlier but thankfully they finished the race safely.

In race 2 it was a good start from Ralf who managed to keep and hold onto P3 at the start of the race and till he had to go in for the mandatory pit stop. Wang did well to keep the car in P3 when it was his turn in the car and was on course to finish the race in 3rd until the number 1 Porsche made contact with the back of car number 22 causing it to spin around.

After Race control reviewed the incident car number 1 which ended the race in 3rd received a drive through penalty which was converted to a 33 second post race penalty moving it down to 12th place. As a result car number 22 finished the race 5th overall and 4th in class.
