Porsche Carrera Cup Germany – Preview Round 15 & 16, Sachsenring

At the eighth race weekend of the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany at the Sachsenring, BLACK FALCON races three Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars. For Carlos Rivas (LU, #6) the last two races of the season are about the AM championship. The Luxemburgian leads the table by 1.5 points and can therefore become champion on his own. David Kolkmann (DE, #5) currently ranks tenth in the overall standings. With two good results Kolkmann could jump to seventh place in the drivers' standings. Tim Zimmermann (DE, #50) travels to the Sachsenring with a good memory. Last year he celebrated his first podium place in Germany's fastest one-make cup on the 3.6 km long track.

As usual, the Carrera Cup will have two races this weekend. On Saturday morning, the 35-minute qualifying session from 09:20-09:55 will decide about the starting positions for the championship races 15 and 16. The first race starts on Saturday at 16:25 and leads over 19 laps. The second race over the same distance will start on Sunday afternoon at 13:15 hrs.
