This weekend was beautiful for Brazilian driver Augusto Farfus and rather disappointing for all the other BMW teams involved in the DTM Championship. Even thought Augusto won the race, no other driver managed to gain any points.
Jens Marquardt praised Farfus' performance and criticized the rest of the race that proved to be problematic: "That was a fantastic performance from Augusto Farfus and BMW Team RBM in an incredibly intense race […] Behind him, the race was extremely turbulent at times. Given our starting positions, we should obviously have had one or two more cars in the points. We will now analyse that in greater detail."
Of course, the team principal of BMW Team RBM was happy with the result also: "That was a fantastic performance from Augusto Farfus. Even his qualifying was awesome: that was the sixth time in a row he had made it into the top-four qualifying, which is very impressive."
"The key to the race was his perfect start, after which he was able to open up a lead and control the pace. From a strategic point of view, it was not easy keeping Mike Rockenfeller at bay. In the end, our pace was good enough on both compounds to stay in front right through to the finish. A great result!" he added.
After 8 races, Mike Rockenfeller is on the top spot, with 124 points, Augusto Farfus follows with 91 points and Chirstian Vietoris in now 3rd with 71 points. At the moment, with only 2 races left, Farfus is the only one that can still catch up to Rockenfeller.
