Michael Krumm and Lucas Luhr's Nissan GT-R takes victory at Silverstone, fifth round of the GT1 world championship.
The Aston Martin DB9 driven by Enge and Muller won qualifying race on Saturday, and started from pole position for main race. Tomas Enge was able to maintain the lead in the first part of the race.
But, after the mid-race pit stop and the driver change, the positions in front were reversed, as Lucas Luhr and the Nissan went back on track just ahead of Alex Muller's Aston. Muller tried to find a way pass in the remaining laps, but Luhr was able to stay in front, to take win at the checkered flag.
With their win at Silverstone, Krumm and Luhr moved up to first position in provisional championship classification.
