After being forced to withdraw from NEC Round 7 earlier this month due to illness, Fischer Motorsport is back in action at the Nürburgring this Sunday with the penultimate round of the 2021 iRacing Nürburgring Endurance Championship.

Pascal Theis and Benjamin Fischer will pilot the No. 84 BMW M4 GT3 in NEC Round 8, looking to put together a strong run to kick off the final stretch of the season.

It will be the first time for the two drivers to share a car at the Nürburgring since the 2020 Nürburgring 24 Hours, when the team went on to capture second place running a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup.

The race this Sunday will be much shorter, of course, at the usual NEC distance 4 hours. The weather forecast predicts perfect racing conditions for competitors.

“We’re happy to be back. It’s a fantastic late-summer weekend. We’re ready to have some fun and hopefully get a good result. At this point, it’s not really about the championship points anymore for us, but we want to regain confidence as a team and drivers and get back in the groove.”

The iRacing NEC Round 8 takes the green flag on Sunday at 15:40 CEST / 9:40 am EDT.
