Still, this top result did not come effortlessly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After witnessing the total vanishing of rear brake pads in the previous event, Driver #1 transformed into Mechanic #1 for a brief moment and restored car #157 to its former &#8220;brakes all around&#8221; glory. <br>This meant technical inspection went smoothly, aside from the unusual request to &#8220;open the boot&#8221; which uncovered enough equipment to swap the engine altogether and was greeted with &#8220;please close this before anyone else sees it&#8221; from the (kind) technical inspector. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After an all-too-familiar start of the day at 6:00am the following morning, the team was given a proper welcome by the Eifel region on their way to the track, as if nature wanted to give H2R a glimpse of its beauty during a 24h race&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_4_2025-09-09_16-07-09.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_4_2025-09-09_16-07-09.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_4_2025-09-09_16-07-09-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once both drivers regained their concentration following this obscene display of natural sexiness, it was time to hit the track! <br>Corner after corner the car behaved flawlessly, and despite a self-inflicted scare on fuel usage, all laps driven were enjoyed to the maximum by both drivers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All good things must come to an end, and it was with high expectations that the team waited for the results&#8230;Which, if you read above, did not disappoint! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once again H2R is immensely grateful to its sponsors, <em>TherapyLift<\/em>, <em>ABCO<\/em>, and an <em>undisclosed philanthropist<\/em>.<br>The team is looking forward to further rewarding their trust by continuing to fight for the top step of the podium and for &#8220;<em>bombastic<\/em>&#8221; results according to RCN-GLP&#8217;s committee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_13_2025-09-09_16-07-09-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_13_2025-09-09_16-07-09-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/photo_13_2025-09-09_16-07-09-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More details on the event are available on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rcn-glp.de\/aktuelle-meldungen\/war-das-die-entscheidung-8655\">RCN-GLP&#8217;s newspost<\/a>, which comes with car #157 as featured photo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"987\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-09-164638.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-09-164638.png 987w, https:\/\/h2rteam.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-09-164638-768x700.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>0,1\/0,0\/0,0\/0,1\/0,0\/0,0 No, this isn&#8217;t binary code&#8230; These are H2R&#8217;s #157 penalty points in RCN-GLP #5, depicting a total of 0,2 seconds difference between reference and confirmation laps overall !
