TOP TEN FINISH FOR HRT AT THE THIRD NÜRBURGRING ENDURANCE SERIES ROUND

REVIEW | 23 April, 2022 | Nürburg / Germany

Haupt Racing Team achieved a top ten finish at the third round of the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS) – with one more rehearsal before the 24h Nürburgring, the 24h Nürburgring qualifiers. Manuel Metzger and Luca Stolz (both GER) drove the blue and yellow Mercedes-AMG GT3 #12, which competed with the "Mercedes-AMG Team Bilstein" entry, to tenth place after starting from 27th position. Nico Bastian (GER), Philip Ellis (SUI) and Hubert Haupt (GER) also showed a good performance in the sister car #6 by nu concept, in the design of team partner PAUL: Starting from P25, the driver trio drove further and further forward, but eventually had to retire the car after 22 laps because of a contact.
