This will be the first time that the razoon \u2013 more than racing driver has competed over the longer 80-minute distance.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The third race weekend of the ADAC GT Masters will once again run alongside the DTM. This time, it will take place at the DEKRA Lausitzring. Not only does the circuit in Brandenburg feature a large main grandstand, it is also surrounded by an oval track, parts of which will be used by Colin B\u00f6nighausen and his fellow competitors. \u201cThe circuit is definitely unique and can\u2019t really be compared to any other tracks,\u201d says Colin, who last competed at the Lausitzring three years ago. He has fond memories of that event, as it was where he secured his first podium finish in the BMW M2 Cup.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to finding the best set-up, it is mainly the bumps in the otherwise flat infield of the oval on the former mining site that are giving the engineers a headache. Another topic of conversation ahead of the weekend is the forecast heatwave, with temperatures set to exceed 30\u00b0C. Colin says, \u201cIt\u2018ll make driving even more exhausting. It\u2018s boiling hot in the car.\u201c The 21-year-old, who has also run a marathon, hopes this will give him a physical advantage over his challengers. \u201cBut it\u2018ll be even more about looking after the tyres.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>The third race weekend of the 2026 ADAC GT Masters will also focus on the endurance format. For the first time this year, both races will last 80 minutes. Drivers must change twice, and tyres may be changed once. B\u00f6nighausen remains as cool as ever: \u201cAs always, it\u2019s all about keeping your nerve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From Friday onwards, Colin\u2019s fianc\u00e9e and his mother will be there too, keeping their fingers crossed. After his first victory at the season opener in Spielberg and further strong performances at Zandvoort, Colin and his teammate Leo Pichler are eager to demonstrate their potential in the championship.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the races live on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/ADACMotorsports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADAC Motorsport YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Picture: Axel Weichert<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This weekend, Colin B\u00f6nighausen from Lower Saxony will be back in the Porsche 911 GT3 car at the Lausitzring.
