At 19 years of age, the Team WRT Junior is the youngest driver in the ADAC GT Masters line-up. He had already caused a quite a stir on Saturday by qualifying third. On Sunday, together with team-mate Dries Vanthoor, Weerts went one better. Audi Sports driver Vanthoor took pole position for the Belgian driver pairing in the number 32 car and followed up with a strong stint in which he pulled out a lead of almost 15 seconds. A safety car after Weerts took over bunched the field up again, but he nonetheless made sure of a maiden ADAC GT Masters victory in only his second outing in the series.

"Dries handed the car over to me with a nice lead," said the Belgian teenager. "Unfortunately, the safety car came out and nullified it. That was a bit frustrating. But our car was extremely strong, and after the restart, I was able to pull away a bit. We already had high hopes after our good showing in the tests, but we never expected it to go so well right away."

Second best among the younger contingent and sixth overall was Kim-Luis Schramm in a Montaplast by Land Motorsport Audi R8 LMS. Third place in the Pirelli Junior classification on Sunday went to Porsche driver Jannes Fittje of Küs Team75 Bernhard. His win on Saturday means that he comes away from the Lausitzring leading the Junior standings on points.

Team WRT were also the winners in the Pirelli Trophy classification for amateur drivers. Victory in this category went to Rolf Ineichen who shared a P7 finish with partner Mirko Bortolotti. "The ADAC GT Masters is a tough field to compete in," said Ineichen. "Mirko got off to a very good start and gained two places during his stint. Afterwards, I had a hard time finding my rhythm and unfortunately lost those two positions again. I fought all the way to the finish and am happy to have finished seventh."
