49.6 for van der Linde
Schubert Motorsport
Sheldon van der Linde sets a new best time with a 49.6, but you can tell directly in comparison to group 1 that there is still a lot to do. Seven tenths are missing for the overall lead.

The times tumble
As already seen in Group 1, the times tumble regularly. However, Heinemann seems to be able to establish himself at the front and, like Preining, to lead the field.

Emil Frey Racing
Thierry Vermeulen sets a new best lap time, which is beaten in a few seconds. Olsen puts himself in front of the Dutchman before Heinemann follows…

René Rast makes the start
The experienced René Rast is leading the field for the moment and will set the first time. However, Vermeulen, who followed later, already shows that it is not yet the highest pace in German.

Engines roar
Now the out laps begin. The pilots report back to the track and only have half of the original time.

Long wait
Perhaps conclusions will already be drawn from Group 1 qualifying, because the waiting time before the out lap will be increased again. At this point, Engelhart was already in Group 1.

We need a 48
If there is no 48 at the beginning of the time measurement, then definitely no new best time will be set. So that’s the yardstick for the Group 2 drivers to get on pole. 48 seconds for a lap at the Norisring.

What is the engine doing?
In the case of Tim Heinemann, the bonnet is even opened during the brief waiting period. Luckily there is no problem.

back in
The pilots in the second group also drive straight back into the pits after the out lap in order to transfer temperature from the brakes to the tires and later to reach maximum speed in a short space of time.

1st qualifying, 2nd part
The traffic lights are green, the start of the 1st qualifying of group 2 in Nuremberg has taken place. It starts again with the out lap.

Who beats Prening?
In group 1 Thomas Preining was able to prevail a few minutes ago. Now it’s up to the Group 2 pilots to beat the time of 48.933 seconds. The favorites include Ricardo Feller, Tim Heinemann and Sheldon van der Linde, to go strictly by the still young drivers’ classification. If they don’t make it, Preining keeps the place in the sun.
