  • Intro:

    Thomas Jäger and Dominik Baumann seal Schubert's first win by finishing fastest in the main Blancpain Sprint Series race at the Slovakia Ring from the back of the grid.

    Script:

    After torrential rain in qualifying, conditions were much more to the drivers' liking for race day at the Blancpain Sprint Series main race in Slovakia on Sunday.But that didn't prevent five cars sliding off into the gravel trap in a dramatic start to the race.The lead then swapped hands a number of times before series leader Maximilian Gotz pulled ahead in his HTP Mercedes.But at the end of lap 17, the German made an error and Sergio Jimenez of BMW Team Brazil took full advantage.Jimenez quickly established a reasonable lead out front and looked set for victory but on the penultimate lap his dreams of glory were dashed by Dominik Baumann.The Schubert driver slipped past Jimenez and thundered on to take the chequered flag.Together with team-mate Thomas Jager, Baumann had taken the car from last on the grid to seal his team's first ever triumph.
