Australian Carrera Cup champion Nick Foster picked up a pair of podium finishes in the German Carrera Cup meeting at the Lausitzring.
The Queenslander was involved in a thrilling dice with Christian Engelhart in Race 1 coming out on top to claim the final place on the podium.
“That was a fantastic race for me. Christian was strong and put me under incredible pressure. But I stayed calm and I'm really happy with third place,” said Foster, who had started from fifth on the grid.
Foster produced another solid drive in the second race to finish third behind Engelhart and Sven Muller, who won both heats.
The Australian remains fourth in the championship standings. The series heads to Nourishing for the next round of the championship from June 24-26.

German Formula 4
Joey Mawson continues to the lead the ADAC German Formula 4 Championship after a weekend of mixed results at the Lausitzring.
The Sydney driver progressed from eighth to sixth in the opening heat which was shortened after a multiple car crash on the opening lap. Title rival Mick Schumacher took the honours.
Mawson fought back in Race 2 as he followed Schumacher home to claim second and valuable championship points.
However, the young Aussie sustained contact in the final race which broke his front wing and subsequently dropped him to 23rd.
As a result, Mawson's championship lead over Schumacher has been cut to three points.
“It was one of those weekends where we just didn't get the breaks we needed,” said Mawson.
“In qualifying I was fastest in my group only to be pipped right in the last seconds and end up fourth fastest in my group which meant I started eight in Race 1.
“That race was then shortened, we only raced 10 of the original 30 minutes, due to a multi-car accident on lap one.
“Race 2 I just couldn't get a run on Mick (Schumacher) to mount a serious challenge for the lead and then Race 3 just didn't go our way when Thomas Preining turned in on me and damaged my front wing.
“On the upside I'm still in the lead of the championship and the next event is at Oschersleben where I dominated the opening round.”
The championship visits Oschersleben from June 17-19.

The pole-sitter initially lost the lead to Jamie Green but managed to fight back to take the chequered flag from the Brit, with Wickens in third.

Tordoff starred in Race 2 as the BMW driver passed pole-sitter Turkington at the start before going on to score his first win of the season.
Turkington was left to follow Tordoff home in second with Plato coming home in third.
Team Dynamics driver Matt Neal dominated the reverse grid finale as he led home Tordoff and Plato.
Tordoff, who became the ninth different winner in 12 races, now leads the championship by a point from Neal ahead of the visit to Croft from June 18-19.
