Yes, that’s Werner moving left, staying left, and STILL getting hit by a GT4. Sad times. TRUE STORY: Werner’s shoulder was so red and sore after the impact, we were worried he’d broken something. He’s back at the hotel now taking a break until the morning. Here’s what our wheel looked like after:

Nightmare. I jumped in the car after Werner’s little accident above, and hit the track on a mission. Pulled back P2 from a Clio, then after a 5 lap battle with the other GT86, I took P1 in our class. Then this happened…
A quick tow back to pitlane and 35 minutes later…

Moritz Gusenbauer is at the wheel. The car has a new driveshaft, a new alignment and he says it feels good. And he’s already 2 seconds quicker than my best lap… we are down from P1 to P6 but it’s a long race, and we will keep pushing!
