For the first time in the history of endurance racing at the Nürburgring, there was a double event with two 4-hour races on two consecutive days. Zimmermann and Mathol Racing competed with the Zimmermann-Porsche 718 Cayman S and the Zimmermann-Porsche Cayman S in the Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie. Team boss Matthias Holle: "A challenge that our team mastered brilliantly. We clinched one classification win and three class wins."

At the first race of the weekend both Zimmermann-Porsche started. In the VT3 class, Wolfgang Weber/Alex Fielenbach drove the Zimmermann-Porsche 718 Cayman S. The duo was supported by Mike Beckhusen and the Frenchman Jules Gounon, who drove the Nordschleife Permit. Therefore, Beckhusen/Gounon started at the same time in the Zimmermann-Porsche Cayman S in the V6 class. Team boss Matthias Holle; "The coordination of the driver's assignments was not easy, but it worked perfectly until the end". Both Zimmermann cars were in the best starting position in the class after qualifying. In the race both teams took the lead from the beginning and were able to hold this position without any problems until the finish. Team manager Matthias Holle: "All drivers did a good and faultless job. Two class wins of the Zimmermann cars were the reward. In addition, the lap times of both cars were appealing."

After another strong and once again faultless performance, the quartet secured class victory again and, for the first time this season, success in the classification group of near-series vehicles. Team boss Holle: "A flawless performance. The new Porsche 718 Cayman S runs better and better."
