The ADAC GT Masters weekend at Nürburgring was difficult for WestCoast Racing and the team did not score any points in the two races. Fredrik Lestrup and Martin Matzke finished 16th in the Saturday race and in the Sunday race they finished in where they started in 19th position. Just as on Saturday the second race was also run under mixed conditions with a heavy shower of rain shortly before the start making it a wet race. The rain came and went during the race and during the second half of the race the track dried up as the rain stopped.

As in the previous race WestCoast Racing struggled for pace in the wet conditions and Fredrik Lestrup who drove the first stint struggled for grip throughout the stint. "This is of course not a result we are happy with and this weekend we struggled for pace here. My first stint today was very difficult to drive in the wet. We struggled for grip and I had to fight very hard just to avoid losing too many positions. We never found the pace in the car when the track was wet. As it dried up the pace came to us and Martin did a good stint and could recover some positions. We did at least finish both races with the car in one piece. I now look forward to the next round at Red Bull Ring, a track I've never been too and should be fun to race the BMW Z4 on," Fredrik said.

Martin Matzke stayed on the rain tyres as he went out in the second stint to finish the race. The pace picked up as the track dried up and he could recover some positions and take the car home in 19th position. "We are not happy with the result but this is all we had this time. Both Fredrik and I did two good clean stints, the team did a good pitstop and we made no mistakes. The car was good in the dry but just as yesterday we struggled when it was wet. We couldn't do more today," Martin said.
