DTM
The legendary Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters series, now running GT3 machinery across high-profile European venues.
// Overview
The DTM is in its fortieth season of competition in 2026 and its sixth under GT3 regulations. After decades as a bespoke touring car formula, the series moved to GT3 machinery in 2021, dramatically broadening the manufacturer base and grid size.
The 2026 season features 21 drivers across eight rounds, including a first-ever Austrian season opener at the Red Bull Ring. Grasser Racing bring the all-new Lamborghini Temerario GT3 to the DTM for the first time, while Comtoyou Racing represent Aston Martin with Nicki Thiim and Nicolas Baert.
Thomas Preining (Manthey Racing / Porsche) is one of the title favourites after winning the championship in 2023.
