A late rain shower caused a dramatic final phase at the Spa 24 Hours.
In the dramatic final four hours of the Nürburgring 24 Hours the Audi R8 LMS with number 4 of Audi Sport Team Phoenix took over the lead in the Eifel classic
In one of the most turbulent editions of the Nürburgring 24 Hours with more than 14 hours of race interruption in dense fog, Audi Sport customer racing thrilled everyone with a strong recovery. However, there was hardly any reward in the end. From 64th place at the start of the race, Audi Sport Team Land fought its way back to the leading group but did not see the finish after an accident by Kelvin van der Linde. The best Audi R8 LMS in the end was fielded by Audi Sport Team Car Collection. From 25th place after an early tire change, the number 2 Audi improved to fifth place.
At Spa in 2019, Audi Sport customer racing was battling for its third 24-hour race victory this season. At the end of a race that was dominated by freak weather conditions and interrupted for several hours by heavy rain, the Audi R8 LMS, with the leading position having been maintained by Audi DTM drivers Robin Frijns/Nico Müller/René Rast in the gripping final stage, again proved its powerful performance capacity. Even so, drivers and teams were deprived of a podium finish in the overall classification. In the end, though, Audi Sport Team Saintéloc with the best Audi R8 LMS achieved third position on the list of IGTC teams entered and fourth overall.
Three champions, one Green Hell: Mike Rockenfeller, Timo Scheider and Martin Tomczyk had their first race together in the Audi R8 LMS from Audi Sport Team Scherer PHX at the 24h Nürburgring Qualifiers – in preparation for the 2023 Nürburgring 24 Hours, from May 18–21.
