Bottom post of the previous page:

Yeah, the DTM is streaming the races live, with ADAC taking over the series again it wasn't entirely certain that would be the case like in the ITC era.

It's 10:00 am CET and the ADAC GT4 Race 2 is ready to start. That is streamed live on the ADAC Motorsports YT channel (with commentary).

Yeah I just watched the GT4 race live on TV now. Just finished.Just switched channels for the Moto 3 race. Bit of a clash with MotoGP and the 2nd DTM race.

Feller keeps the lead early on, Engel and Preining behind. Lucas Auer picked up bonnet damage on the rolling start and retired. Vanthoor with a puncture is the second DNF.

Pitstops done. Feller still leads. Engel the big loser, from 2nd down to 5th.

Feller wins ahead of Preining and Stolz.

Preining looks good as my championship favorite however let's see who survives Norisring next.

Glad they did their stunt BEFORE the race started. The motorsport family isn't suicidial, we also want the world to live on, where else should we race? Go do your stunt where it actually matters, at the homes of the politicians.

Preining wins ahead of Rast and S. van der Linde. Given how Rast missed Zandvoort it's a good bet Preining is the #1 title favorite right now.

Preining's overtake on Rast was 11/10. Superb, very cheeky, but superb. I am a total Preining fanboy at this point. Love it when you can SEE a driver's driving style.
