At the fourth championship weekend of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland as part of the AvD Oldtimer Grand Prix, BLACK FALCON won the Sunday race in the amateur classification in front of an impressive spectators' crowd. Carlos Rivas started from pole position and secured a never-endangered start-finish victory after finishing third in Saturday's race. Rookie driver Tim Zimmermann finished tenth overall on Saturday after a strong race to catch up, on Sunday he finished twelfth. For Sören Spreng, the second round at the Nürburgring within a week did not go as hoped. He had to finish both races prematurely in the pit lane.
Carlos Rivas won both races in the amateur classification at the third Porsche Carrera Cup race weekend at the Nürburgring. After the first "Big Points" of the season, the Luxembourgian is now fourth in the amateur ranking. Tim Zimmermann showed a great race to catch up in Saturday's race and finished eleventh overall and second in the rookie classification after starting from position 19. Sören Spreng finished fourth in the amateur classification after a flawless Saturday race. On Sunday Spreng and Zimmerman didn't finish.
BLACK FALCON enters the hot phase of the Porsche Carrera Cup Germany. This weekend (03.-05.08.) will be the third race weekend of the year taking place at the Nürburgring. The event is the prelude to a mammoth programme: the Carrera Cup will run three events within three weeks - two of them on different track layouts of the Nürburgring, followed by a round at Zandvoort in the Netherlands.
After a gruelling 24 hours, BLACK FALCON have successfully brought home all three of their Mercedes-AMG GT3s entries to the finish at Round 4 of the 2018 Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup. The team narrowly missed out on an overall podium with their Pro-class #4 AMG but took third place in the Silver Cup following an incredible recovery drive for the #6 car.
This weekend, BLACK FALCON is going to face the most competitive GT race in the world. The 2018 edition of the infamous Spa 24 Hours is the 70th running of the prestigious race and round four of the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup. The race features a roster of winners that reads like a who’s-who of motorsports greats running 65 cars in five different classes, half of them being Pro entries. The Spa 24 is the race that every team and driver wants on their CV, and BLACK FALCON will be on maximum attack in Belgium to achieve the best results possible. Points are available after 6, 12 and 24 hours, so it will be a pivotal weekend for the team’s championship hopes – to consolidate their existing lead in Silver Cup, further improve their position in Pro-Am and for the #4 crew to bring themselves back up to the sharp end in the Pro class.
