Emanuele as Spectator

Sachsenring: The strategy in the main race was dictated by the tires. The grip of the Dunlop tires stays the same during the race, where the Michelins in the competion are very good for the first 10 laps and then gradually wear down. In the first half of the race, I have to drive carefully to preserve my tires and my chances for the second half, after the competitors have already gotten the best out of their tires. Just when I came close to Johny Cecotto, for the first time since I have been driving for Audi my Quattro let me down with an electronic problem.
