Sebastian Asch (#5 kfzteile24 MS RACING Team, Mercedes Benz SLS AMG GT3): "It's gone very well for us so far, but let's wait and see how qualifying goes."

Dino Lunardi (#1 ALPINA BMW, ALPINA B6 GT3): "We predicted that this weekend would be very tough, and it seems we were right."

Maxime Martin (#1 ALPINA BMW, ALPINA B6 GT3): "We are still in the Top 20, which is a positive. There's no particular sector where we lose time, we're down everywhere and it all adds up."

Daniel Keilwitz (#28 Callaway Competition, Corvette Z06.R GT3): "We had a short circuit in the electronics during the second practice session and have hardly turned a wheel since; I have yet to post a lap on a dry track. Our mechanics are still busy working on the wiring, but we hope to find the fault before qualifying."

Ferdinand Stuck (#32 Young Driver AMR, Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3): "Unfortunately, Johannes slid off into the gravel bed at the start of first practice. Subsequent repairs meant that we had to give the second session a miss as well."

Frank Kechele (#18 Callaway Competition, Corvette Z06.R GT3): "An engine drive belt came off again, just like at the Red Bull Ring the other week. However, we think we've now finally found the cause and hope that's the end of our little problem."

Christopher Haase (#40 Mamerow Racing, Audi R8 LMS ultra): "I'm very pleased to finally be back in the cockpit in the ADAC GT Masters. During practice, though, I've had to get used to the Yokohama tyres which I've never utilised before."

Heinz-Harald Frentzen (#27 Callaway Competition, Corvette Z06.R GT3): "FP1 went well, but we had some problems with the engine's electronics in the second session. Also, we've not yet found the perfect suspension setup and need to do some fine-tuning."

Mario Farnbacher (#6 Farnbacher ESET Racing, Porsche 911 GT3 R): "I can't wait to see what the weekend has in store for us. The track should suit the Porsche very well, but we've got a 40kg success ballast to contend with after our victory at the last race."
