carsten66 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It would be great to see the Nürburgring back on the schedule of the LMS... but I'm not shure how all the things turn out in the long term. The "Ring" still is in big trouble and is struggling with huge financial problems. Simply by megalomania and lack of know how by the former management and the involved politicians. Without the last minute 330 Mill EUR guaranty of the state (the formation creates a scandal too) they were about to close down. It's a real shame...

Last year the LMS lost the race (incuring a loss by the event and lack of sponsorship) in favor of the FIA GT races by with the hope of larger attendance... and up to now I don't see any change by the LMS concerning this matter...

I don't know the term of contract or if it is possible to run both series (conflict of the dates)...

Anyway, we will see soon...
