Duo from SR Motorsport by Schnitzelalm claims the title with second place in final race. Third win of the season for Hendrik Still and Philipp Gogollok. Rookie victory for third-placed Roman Fellner-Feldegg.
The 2025 ADAC GT4 Germany season came to an exciting and spectacular end on Sunday evening at the Hockenheimring. Second place in the final race was enough to see Enrico Förderer (18/Leuterod) and Jay Mo Härtling (22/Sprockhövel), at the wheel of a Mercedes-AMG GT4, claim the prestigious Drivers title in the ADAC’s GT4 series. The two SR Motorsport by Schnitzelalm drivers were making their debut in this year’s ADAC GT4 Germany – and had topped the table since the opening race weekend. This is the very first time the champions have driven a Mercedes-AMG. Victory in the race went to Hendrik Still (38/Kempenich) and Philipp Gogollok (19/Bad Homburg, both AVIA W&S Motorsport) in a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4.
Gogollok started the race from pole position and got off the line nicely. Team-mate Oskar Lind Kristensen (19/DNK) and fellow Porsche driver Raphael Rennhofer (18/AUT, Wimmer Werk Motorsport) were hot on his heels. The three Porsche initially pulled a little way clear of the field. However, the star of the first few minutes of the race was Förderer, who started from twelfth but had soon stormed into eighth place.
The top two positions remained unchanged in the second half of the race, with Still and Lachlan Robinson (22/AUS) now at the wheel of the two AVIA W&S Motorsport Porsche. Rennhofer’s partner Emil Heyerdahl (23/NOR) initially had to take his place behind Roman Fellner-Feldegg (23/Landsberg am Lech) in the Prosport Racing Porsche, but was soon able to retake third place. Robinson was then handed a penalty for an infringement during the pit stop and dropped back through the field. Still ultimately went on to take a comfortable victory, which also meant success in the Junior classification for Gogollok. The Porsche of Heyerdahl and Rennhofer was disqualified after the race, as it did not meet the minimum weight requirement.
The final few metres saw a battle for third place on the track – the disqualification ultimately meant it was for second place – between Fellner-Feldegg and the storming Jay Mo Härtling, with the Mercedes-AMG driver coming out on top. Fellner-Feldegg and his team-mate Hugo Sasse (21/Aschersleben) eventually took third place, which also earned them victory in the Rookie competition. Fourth place went to Alon Gabbay (21/ISR) and Thomas Gore (20/JAM, both AVIA W&S Motorsport) in another Porsche, ahead of Linus Hahne (21/Oelde) and ADAC Stiftung Sport driver Thomas Rackl (17/Berching, both ME Motorsport) in a BMW M4 GT4, and fellow BMW racers Gabriele Piana (39/ITA) and Berkay Besler (25/TUR, both FK Performance Motorsport). Kristensen and Robinson finished seventh, followed by Jan Philipp Springob (24/Olpe) and Storm Gjerdrum (16/NOR, both COSY Racing by ESM) in an Aston Martin, and Niels Tröger (22/Dresden) and Andreas Jochimsen (27/DNK, both FK Performance Motorsport). Their team-mates Joseph Ellerine (22/ZAF) and Benjamin Sylvestersson (18/FIN, both FK Performance Motorsport) completed the top ten.
Hendrik Still – winner for AVIA W&S Motorsport: “It was a great weekend and once again a fantastic team effort. AVIA W&S Motorsport provides us with an awesome car every time. This was Philipp’s first year in the Porsche and he has developed superbly. Let’s see how we line up again together next year.”
Philipp Gogollok – winner for AVIA W&S Motorsport: “We would obviously have liked to have won the title, but it is great to end the season with a race win. The whole team and Hendrik have done a super job all season. We kept having little ups and downs, but on the whole it was a great year.”
Jay Mo Härtling - champion with SR Motorsport by Schnitzelalm: “This triumph is absolutely incredible – to be honest, I am speechless and overwhelmed. It is definitely my greatest sporting success. The foundation was certainly the impressive start to the season, with four victories. That allowed us to manage our lead a little for the rest of the season. Thank you to the team. The first title for Mercedes-AMG in ADAC GT4 Germany is certainly not to be sniffed at!”
Enrico Förderer - champion with SR Motorsport by Schnitzelalm: “Winning the title is indescribably nice. The team worked day and night for this. At the start of the season, I never expected to win the championship together with Jay Mo in my first year in ADAC GT4 Germany. We will now all enjoy the evening together.”
