From DTM
The DTM cars will race at Spielberg's Red Bull Ring up to and including 2016.
DTM rights holder and promoter ITR e.V. as well as the operators of the circuit located in Styria, Austria announced the extension of the contract by another three years.
Just a few weeks ago, during the 2013 season kick-off weekend at Hockenheim, ITR e.V. Chairman Hans Werner Aufrecht presented Markus Messner, Head of Circuit & Facility Red Bull Ring, with the trophy for the 'Organiser of the Year 2012'.
DTM contested its first races at Spielberg's Österreichring from 2001 to 2003. In those years, the races at the demanding circuit with the picturesque backdrop were won by the Mercedes-Benz drivers Marcel Fässler (2001 and 2003) and Bernd Schneider (2002).
Following a multi-year break due to numerous renovation measures, DTM returned to Styria in 2011. The first two races after the comeback were won by Martin Tomczyk and Edoardo Mortara for Audi and this year, BMW celebrated a one-two-three courtesy of Bruno Spengler, Marco Wittmann and Timo Glock.
