The no. 84 Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 of Schneider/Goetz/Buhk was in a league of his own. The Comptition complained about unfair Balance of Power rules. This BoP gave the Mercedes a very high end speed at the end of the straight.
A safety car was on the track for a few laps to clear the debris after a Ferrari and a Nissan crashed. But that didn't harm the lead of the no. 84 Mercedes.
The Ferrari no. 44 was one of the teams in the race for the drivers championship but was driving way to aggresive that did them more harm (spinnings and penalty) than good.
The BMW of the Marc VDS Racing Team where just to slow. altough at the end, the no. 3 came close, when they took the gamble not to change breakpads.
