Only two contenders left: In the grand finale of the #dtm at the Hockenheimring on October 15/16, Marco Wittmann (BMW) and #edoardomortara (Audi) will be battling for the drivers’ title. In the manufacturers’ and the teams’ standings, #audi is leading before the last two races.
Following the 1-2-3-4-5-6 success on Saturday, #audi celebrated a one-two result with Mattias Ekström (Red Bull #audi RS 5 DTM/Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline) and Adrien Tambay (Speedweek.com #audi RS 5 DTM/Audi Sport Team Rosberg) at the #hungaroring in race two on Sunday. However, the joy within the #audi squad was marred by the fact that the two #audi drivers with the best points score went home without points following a starting accident.
In a thrilling qualifying session, #edoardomortara in the Castrol EDGE #audi #rs5dtm, like the day before, had again secured pole position. His teammate Mattias Ekström relegated leader of the standings Marco Wittmann in the BMW to the second row by a thousandth of a second. He was trailed by two other #audi drivers – Jamie Green (Hoffmann Group #audi RS 5 DTM) and Miguel Molina (Teufel #audi RS 5 DTM) – a solid, albeit dicey starting base for Sunday’s race.
While Mattias Ekström managed a perfect start, the three drivers with the best points score overall collided with each other even before turn one. Marco Wittmann was fortunate and able to finish the race in fourth place. Jamie Green on the other hand retired with a damaged left front suspension and now no longer has any title chances. #edoardomortara caught a puncture in the controversial collision and, in position 21, remained without points as well. The #audi driver will now enter the finale with a deficit of 26 points.
“I didn’t have a good start. Subsequently, I was sandwiched between Wittmann and Green. One of the rims broke in the process and I had to take a few more hits on lap one,” said Mortara. “That’s very disappointing because we could have won again today.”
“It was a real shame,” Dieter Gass, Head of #dtm at #audi Sport, agreed. “It’s extremely frustrating not to be able to feel really happy in spite of a one-two result. Today, we could definitely have achieved more. We had fast cars. That was obvious also with Mattias (Ekström) and Adrien (Tambay). The situation at the start was extremely unfortunate. You can’t really blame anyone either. Edo (Mortara) had a little too much wheel spin. That’s what set off this unfortunate chain of events. That, of all #people, it resulted in our two drivers with the best points score being taken out of the race is frustrating.”
