I’ve been out on the Nordschleife for the last few hours, what have I missed?
There seems to be a very large crowd here this year compared to past events. |

Even if the Ferrari needs a splash and dash in the last hour, they should still have a minute or so buffer to 2nd

So I've missed the last three hours. Is it just the commentators hyping the finish, or is Vanthoor genuinely catching Pittard for the lead?

Well as of 30 minutes ago, the lead was at 1 minute 40 something seconds; because of pit stops and slow zones, it's now down to 50 something seconds

As much as I an fond of the Vanthoor brothers, it's about time a non-German manufacturer won this. Go Frikadelli! |
