Mid-Ohio 2008: Luhr, Werner win for Audi.

Sunday, 20th July 2008

Audi bounced back on to the top step of the ALMS podium as Marco Werner and Lucas Lihr led a marque 1-2 in the Acura Sports Car Challenge at Mid-Ohio.

"The pit-stop is a big opportunity to gain positions, as it's very hard for us to overtake," Farnbacher said, "All the drivers are very professional and it's hard to fight for positions, but we have good luck all the time as well as good mechanics and pit strategy. If everything works together, then there is a chance for victory. That is what happened today."

Class leaders Jörg Bergmeister and Wolf Henzler finished third, just 0.459secs behind their Flying Lizard team-mates, but Muller and Farnbacher's first win since Long Beach in April pulled them to within four points of the overall lead.

"It wasn't as close as St Petersburg or Long Beach, that's for sure," Muller said, "At the end, it was about controlling the field and there was no reason to push. We did everything right and controlled things to the end."
