After the Mercedes double in Top Qualifying on Saturday, the organizers of the 24 Hours of Nürburgring have decided to modify the Balance of Performance for the umpteenth time before the start of the German event. If the Mercedes-AMG GT3 does not undergo any changes, its competitors will be entitled to a little preferential treatment. 

La BMW M4 GT3 et la Porsche 911 GT3 R ont été allégées de 15 kg, tandis que l’Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo II a perdu 10 kg après les qualifications. La Lamborghini Huracan GT3 EVO2 ne perd pas de poids, mais gagne deux litres supplémentaires en capacité de réservoir.

Turbo pressure has also been increased on the BMW at low revs, while the Porsche receives a 1-degree reduction on rear wing angle. An important change, since several Porsches suffered punctures during the third qualifying practice session on Friday afternoon.
