Audi has announced his line-up for the 2013 DTM season, with only one change: Jamie Green, who replaces Rahel Frey in the squad.

The brand from Ingolstadt will run eight Audi A5 DTM for newcomer Jamie Green (who just left Mercedes), and seven drivers that were already part of the team last season : Mattias Ekström, Timo Scheider, Mike Rockenfeller, Edoardo Mortara, Filipe Albuquerque, Adrien Tambay and Miguel Molina.

Molina remains in the team, although he was rumored to leave Audi. But the cancellation of the Friday practice session for 2013 means the drivers will have to take their marks quickly. That's why Dr. Wolfgang Ulrich prefered to maintain an experienced driver instead of a newcomer (Daytona 24 Hours René Rast was rumored to take Molina's seat in 2013).

After BMW and Audi, Mercedes still has to announced its line-up. For now, it is not sure if the team will run six or eight C-Coupé this season.
