The world of premier motor racing could be set to farewell yet another member of the Schumacher family.

Ralf Schumacher, the former Williams and Toyota driver, has opened the door to retirement as he looks to finish this year’s German touring car ‘DTM’ series almost dead last.













Now that was nothing for people with weak nerves. In the fifth season round of the DTM at the Norisring, heavy rain determined the drivers’ tactics. Canadian Mercedes-Benz driver Bruno Spengler did it perfectly.


The best of British meets the best of France as Lotus Motorsport and GP2 championship winners ART Grand Prix unite to create the ultimate GP2 and GP3 race teams. 
For the 15th time, Gary Paffett (Mercedes-Benz) crossed the finish line as the winner of a DTM race. In the season opener of the most popular international touring car series at the Hockenheimring Baden-Württemberg, the Briton won after 39 laps from his fellow Mercedes-Benz drivers Bruno Spengler, Jamie Green and Paul Di Resta.
“I am very happy to have achieved my fourth win of the season and I thank my team – again they gave me a perfect car. Unfortunately, I missed the championship win by five points, but I want to congratulate Timo Scheider, he was more consistent and deserved to win.” – Paffett
Jamie Green denied Audi its first victory at the Norisring since 2002 with a dramatic pass on Timo Scheider on the penultimate lap in a thrilling finish at the German street circuit.
Jamie Green won the third race of the year at an average speed of 174.054kph, thus giving Mercedes-Benz the first win of the season.
