Started on the 5th May, just watched the highlights of the first race. Was quite good.
Some new rule changes, the cars now have DRS, but can only use it once per lap, also they have to use both tyre compounds, sound similar to another Motorsport Series?

As the first race has gone by, BMW start off their title defense with a 1-2, with last years Rookie of the Year Augustus Farfus taking the win, with Mercedes trailing behind, and Audi struggling to produce their best like last season. Timo Glock was running well until he went off, then retired due to his wheel coming off.
You can catch the highlights on Sky Sports 2, 3, and 4, at random times, or ESPN, highlights do come on ITV4, not recommended due to only 15-20 minutes of racing, Jonathon Legard is the commentator ITV if you can stand him.
One thing I like to point out, these DTM commentators lack enthusiasm and the racings good though.
