It was a timed stop, so it's 98 against 29 for 2nd position

So Land has had a problem just a while ago? That is totally bad luck indeed, they controlled the race since the start

It would have to get a move on, but the rain could arrive just in time for the last lap. Sounds Biblical from the weather reports at Spa.
Edit - Scratch that, there's rain on the helicopter... |

Rast pits for slicks.
Brave decision this one. Edit - Rast almost drives into a Porsche out of his pit box. Edit - Land drops the car too early, Rowe takes 2nd on the stops. The team decide to gamble anyway and take wets. |

Rowe takes second after Land mess up the stop. Now they do a second tyre change in the same stop and are putting wets on.

Rast setting good times in the first 2 sectors, where it is still dry.
Edit - #1 caught out, off track. |

Well, hello rain and wrench thrown into the proceedings. Makes for an interesting finish.
#1 Is off? |

Van der Linde almost lost it at Adenaur on wets!
Van der Linde a whole 20 seconds quicker in Section 4 alone. Catsburg is off at almost every corner. Rast off at Brunchen, recovers. Van der Linde is only ~20 seconds behind, he'll get Rast before the lap is over! |

Crazy!
Catsburg did really well to keep all fours on the tarmac for as long as he did. |

A few hours ago I thought this was going to just play out in fairly boring fashion. Couldn't have been more wrong.

Catsburg passes Rast for 2nd.
Edit - Congratulations to Land Motorsport. Give whoever made the quick tyre call the trophy! Last edited by J Jay; 28 May 2017 at 13:34. |
