Championship Standings
Frank Diefenbacher was disqualified after the race for an overtaking manoeuvre
under yellow flags. Diefenbacher lost his points and his Japanese team mate
Toshihiro Kaneishi was announced as champion. The stewards handed the
championship back to Diefenbacher little later, after his Opel Team BSR had
appealed against the disqualification.
Now the final decision will be made by the appeal court of the German motor
sport government (DMSB).
