Not a bad Race.

Got back from Brands this morning. A bit disappointing really, racing wise. The FPA was OK, but the F3 was TEEEEEEEdious. The DTM race started off well, but got a bit monotonous. The gap between Scheider and di Resta stayed pretty much consistent the whole time, however there was some good racing in the pack. Didn't watch the Polos, and the trucks were pretty good. The amount of Hamilton fanboys was ridiculous! I can't believe some people went JUST to watch Hamilton do a few laps. The grandstand was full at Hailwood when he came on, but it was all in good fun.

I was the guy walking around with the big England flag if anyone saw me.

woops

FAIL! AGAIN! They had a street race in Avignon already secured, but the town council found a law from last century that forbids racing - so no race in Avignon! France must hate DTM...!

Is the DTM this weekend or the next? :S

This. They plan the schedule so that they don't coincide with F1.

ah ok cool! Because some sites say next weekend and some say this weekend. Thanks mate!

Christijan Albers is said to be going to the ABT Sportsline DTM team factory this weekend as a guest. I found it on his website, and i did a rough tranlastion because it was only in dutch and not in english. I hope he can get into a better car for 2009!

well

DTM should stay in germany mostly and not all over the world! then its not the "GERMAN" series anymore..

rename them into World Touringcar Masters and go everywhere else..


but woops... we already have the WTCC... damn

There was a rumour going round that the DTM are going to take IndyCar's slot at Surfers next year. I think it was in one of the Australian papers

Read that rumor, too! But that is just MAD, MAD, MAD! WHY do they always try to desperatly outperform themselves! Remember what happened in Shanghai...?!


Agree, it's not like Germany lacks the locations. What about the Sachsenring? Zolder and Spa are also not far away from the border. Additionally a street race in Hamburg or Berlin would boost DTM immensely.

But seeing DTM is handled at the moment, we can expect a few more cock-ups!

DTM needs a street race in Germany just like Avus or Singen.

Those days..!

that will never happen :C

Norisring?

The ITC was a great idea. It's just a shame it got shat on because it became too much of a threat to F1

Ah of course, I mean an other street circuit then.

ITC is not the only one, the old WTCC is the same as well.

i am proud that i have seen 2times the old DTM ITC on the AVUS track...

i was there when this huuuuuge crash at the frontstrech happend...

They shouldn't go back to Singen, that track was such a joke

The track was so narrow that (from what I remember) 2 cars barely fitted next to eachother

but it was good for nice crashes everytime..

i can remember some heavy impacts there!

:C

that track was awesome
