German Formula Three - Hockenheim

Allan Simonsen contested the last double header of the German Formula Three season and posted his best results of the season in very difficult conditions. Allan qualified 20th for Saturday's race and 23rd for Sunday's season finale. Saturday's race saw him put in a superb performance as he carved his way through the field into 13th place. Sunday's event was run in very wet conditions and although the rain stopped there was little evidence of the circuit drying. Allan again put in a fantastic drive to climb up into 12th place at the chequered flag. The Championship was secured by Frank Diefenbacher although there was some doubt thrown on this due to a yellow flag infringment by the German driver during the race.

Danish Touring Car Challenge - Jyllands Ringen

Kent Bo Lauridsen took third place in the sprint race of the last round of the season at Jyllands Ring. Casper Elgaard was eighth with Carsten Leveau in 12th. In the feature race Casper Elgaard took seventh place with Kent Bo Lauridsen in 13th but the other Team Brask drivers were out of luck as Mike Legarth took the win. Michael Carlsen won the championship with Casper Elgaard fourth with Kent Bo Lauridsen sixth, Gunnar Kristensen eigth and Carsten Leveau 14th.

Belcar Championship - Zolder

Jacky van der Ende failed to reach the finish during the Belcar race at Zolder. His retirement came 37 laps into the race when his engine expired. At the time Jacky was in ninth place overall and leading his class. Qualifying for the two hour race saw Jacky and his driving partner for the weekend, Rembert Berg, qualify 21st overall and second in class. Jacky took the opening stint and was very quick at the start, making up several places in the overall standings in the Audi A4. The retirement brought a premature end to his race and also his 2001 racing season.
