Third place puts Porsche 911 GT3 R at the top of the standings

The sister car of the team from Bruchmühlbach-Miesau in Germany concluded the 60-minute race on 15th place. Klaus Bachler (Austria) and Adrien de Leener (Belgium) took up the race from 24th and made up nine positions. “It was chaos at the start with several cars spinning. In trying to avoid the melee I went over a kerb and damaged the underbody. After that, the main thing was to get the car home as well as we could. On Sunday we’ll do our very best in qualifying to start further up the grid,” said de Leener.

In race three of the ADAC GT Masters, the newly formed customer team IronForce by Ring Police again received a cup in the Trophy category. Amateur drivers Jan-Erik Slooten and Lucas Luhr concluded Saturday’s race on third in the class. Overall, IronForce by Ring Police finished on 18th place. “Before the race, I looked for a line I could take in case of a collision. That worked well and we didn’t touch any other cars. Our pace was good, but we still lack the acumen to also attack,” explained Slooten.
