It was in first place, here-
I have tried posting link here it is just posting the second link below. Video title:

copy and paste into YouTube search bar: 2011 Nurburgring 24 Hours Race Leading BMW M3 GT crashes at Karussell

This isn't just the first time either. The Z4 car was also clipped and flipped over the barrier.


These drivers in the lower classes need to respect the big dogs on the track instead of trying to compete with them! I understand stuff like this happens but both times by cars in lower classes trying to stand there ground when they should let the cars going that much faster, pass! BMW deserved this win, and it was stolen from them! BMW FTW.
