This should be a great seasons. The big 3 from Germany are fighting for the win. Ekstrom was very disapointed with his 3rd place, so next time I bet he will be on fire. Go Audi!
Good ol' Ralfie... things definitely haven't changed there. Takes out 3 BMW's and still ends up 7th. Great to see the promising potential of the BMW teams. Should be a great season all round!

Wow! A BMW victory already... guess their claim to fighting for the title in their first DTM year wasnt all hot air.
Oh yeah, Ralph drove like a complete prick. Perhaps he was putting on a stunt to become the face of the next Burnout Game or something.
Haha.. maybe. Ralf is Ralf. Great to see BMW get win #50 in DTm (or is #50 for the M3?)!! All the teams tested at Lausitzring in the pre-season, so looks like BMW Team Schnitzer to maximum advantage of all the test data. Hoping Joey Hand can put his M3 DTM on the podium soon!

Shaping up to be a great battle between Spengler and Paffett. Three races in and Audi is yet to win. I'm amazed at just how quickly BMW Motorsport and its 3 teams have got up to speed in DTM. Exciting stuff!
