Fairly poor start of the season for Pierre Kaffer
The first meeting of the international German Formula 3 Championship did not go as
expected for Pierre Kaffer. The favourite for the title could not impress and ended
up ninth and fourth.
With the third-fastest time in the free practice there was a hope for starting on the
front row of the grid. But in both qualifyings setup problems braked Pierre down.
Although Pierre was stopped several times by slower competitors on the only 2.6 kilometer
long circuit of Hockenheim.
An improvement in the races was not possible. "On this track you can only overtake, if
the guy in front of you makes a mistake. But the frontrunners make nearly no mistakes...",
Pierre Kaffer said after the race.
