Nielsen gets back in gear

Group C: Donington Park

John Nielsen made a triumphant return to Group C when he took the Kremer Racing Porsche 962 to victory in the second of a pair of contests supporting the DTM races.

In the first of these, Gary Pearson (Jaguar XJR-11) and David Mercer (Spice SE90C) enjoyed a fine contest, which just went to Pearson.

Having sorted out his gearbox gremlins, Nielsen won the second race. An oil leak sidelined Mercer at the start, while Pearson had to pit for repairs to a collapsing nose-cone.
