From BMW
BMW Motorsport is handing another two young drivers the opportunity to gain valuable experience at the wheel of a modern DTM car. Belgian Maxime Martin and Swiss Fabio Leimer will complete their first kilometres in the BMW M3 DTM during test drives.
The two newcomers will be joined by BMW Motorsport test and development driver Marco Wittmann.
“We are pleased to be able to offer Maxime and Fabio a taste of the DTM,” said BMW Motorsport Director Jens Marquardt.
“Maxime has earned this opportunity through his impressive performances on the GT circuit. Over the course of the season, he has emphatically demonstrated his talent at the wheel of the BMW Z4 GT3 on several occasions. We know Fabio from his time in Formula BMW. He has already won races in the GP2 series, so we believe that he will also find his feet quickly in the BMW M3 DTM. Marco Wittmann will also be in the car for us. We are looking forward to seeing the three talented drivers in action.”
BMW Motorsport intends to enter two additional M3s next season to race eight cars in total.
