Falken Motorsports returns to the famed Nürburgring Nordschleife: the two Porsche 911 GT3 R cars will battle for lap times and positions at the Nürburgring Endurance Series' "double-header," the fifth and sixth races of the year. Falken Motorsports finished last in the 24-hour race, with two top-ten finishes and a fourth-place finish just missing the podium. The two Porsches will now be driven by old acquaintances and young talent.
The team finished fourth and tenth in the famed 24-hour classic, respectively. Furthermore, Falken can reflect on a great first half of the season at the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) races, where the team displayed the capabilities of the two Porsche 911 GT3 Rs in perfect harmony with Falken tyres. Klaus Bachler and Martin Ragginger even finished third in the third race of the season, following top ten performances in the season opener and the 24h qualification race.
