2009 DTM Season

Kyle Evers · May 18, 2009

Is there a website where I can get live streaming with English commentating? Or just be able to see it even if it's not live?

Agreed, although the commentators were also as much fun as sitting on a bed of nails...

Isn't up to date though, they seem to think MotorsTV are showing it live... which they aren't.

I know I've asked this many times but is there anywhere online where I can see the race? Whether it be streaming or a recording?

Johannes van Luijk · Jun 16, 2009

Yes there is!

But.. You'd have to be willing to listen to German commentary
ARD has them. They have a live stream during the race, and you can watch it afterwards aswell.

Kyle Evers · Jun 18, 2009

Ehh. I wish I knew German. Well I guess it's better than nothing. Thanks!

I just noticed I hadn't commented yet.

Somehow the C-class really seems to like this track, it's won for several years in a row now, so I thought it was quite surprising to see audi getting a double pole. It's sad for Ekstrom he was told to let Scheider pass him, as he had a really great start. Ekstrom had a bad pitstop and got behind Paffett who slowed him down. At the front Scheider was keeping green and Spengler in check who could have driven a higher pace. After the pit stops (and a dramatic pitstop for Pafett). Green and Spengler were right behind Scheider. Ekstrom caught up, and in the last lap Scheider made a mistake and ended up fourth.

Schumacher got his first points, Di Resta got 7th, rather disappointing afer his great season last year. I found Legge's performance to be a bit of a disappointment. She had a great qualification (5th!, her highest yet) so it seemed very promising, but had a bad start and although having driven the fastest lap, got 12th in the end. I hope we'll see more good driving from her.
