Well the screw-up at the last pitstop won them the race.
But really ... well deserved win for them |

Nice by Rast to still be smiling and be one of the first to congratulate Van der Linde

Managed to follow about 10-12 hours of the race. Had a bit of trouble actually following the race itself, as it is the first nurburgring 24 hours I managed to watch, but the end was worth it though.
Great job by Land to win... and that fumble was just the stroke of luck they needed! |

If only Land hadn't changed their mind on tyre choice at that stop!

Is that Ferraris first victory in VLN? I know they've never won the 24. Must've won a race back in the day at the 'Ring surely?

2011 was the only VLN win for Ferrari ever. Chances are, yesterday's win won't be Ferrari's last. They very much enjoyed the N24h. But more on that later this week

You're welcome It took me some digging as I had completely forgotten that Farnbacher actually took a win with the Ferrari. Back when I didn't care so much about VLN yet so I missed that race. Rinaldi was also celebrating like it was Ferrari's first so I was in good company
