Auer was able to maintain his lead after the start. A little further back in the field, Müller and Glock came into contact at turn two, which resulted in the BMW driver turning and the second Glock in the championship.

After about five minutes of racing, it started to rain. A little later Augusto Farfus was the driver in the field who made a pit stop to put rain tires on. At his own stop after about eleven minutes, Auer slipped his vehicle on the wet asphalt of the pit lane, spun and hit two stewards . Mortara and Spengler had a similar experience. Due to the rain and the accidents in the pit, the race was interrupted after 13 minutes with the red flag . One of the control rooms that Auer hit suffered an open fracture of a tibia . In total, three people were injured as a result of these accidents.

At around 2:20 p.m., the race was initially continued behind the safety car and then released again. Shortly before the end of the race, Müller was the last driver to pit. In the meantime Wittmann had taken over the lead in the "adjusted" order of the drivers who had already completed the mandatory stop. Behind it were Glock, Eng, and Rockenfeller.

Wittmann won the race ahead of Glock and Eng, with which BMW achieved a triple victory. Daniel Juncadella drove the fastest lap in 1: 38.417 minutes.
