The starting position before the start of the race was clear: Liam Lawson was on the first place of the table and started on top of the pole position. Even with a failure of the New Zealand, the pursuers Kelvin van der Linde (starting place two) and Maximilian Götz (take place eight) could only pass by victory on the leader.
This scenario seemed unrealistic - but already in the first curve van der Linde paved the way for it. The 25-year-old drove Lawson directly into a curve one in the car and took the favorite practically out of the race - even if this was then desperately tried to save his car with several pit stops. The native South African van der Linde cared in the interview at Sat. 1 that the brake was not warm. I did not want to drive him, that was not my job. He conceded a passage and 5-second penalty for the offense.
The leach-carrying Lawson was visibly disappointed after the bitter race. He is very sorry for his team that stood behind me. Again and again I will turn off from this guy.
Karma for van der Linde
The profiteer was the native Franke Maximilian Götz: From eighth place, the 35-year-old sat down on the front seats and could pass a shortly before the end at the punished van der Linde. In the case of an overtaking attempt of the franc, the 25-year-old took the door and there was a contact on the back left with Götz. That s exactly what Van der Linde became a half round later, when he pulled the rim of the rim there and he had to let the subsequent title winner attractive. Day and overall winner Götz glanced back to the crucial scene: When contacting Van the Linde himself slashed his own tire - that s a bit of karma.

Auer makes protection aid
Götz just had to pass Lucas Auer, who also drives for a Mercedes AMG team. The actual competitor made room for Götz, which drove on the first place on the finish line and thus first crowned the DTM Champion for the first time.
I ve always driven fairly, have fought like a lion and ultimately champion.
Maximilian Götz
The DTM champion expressed itself directly after the race in the interview and realized that he always had the dream in mind . Certainly, the error rate of the other two and the one with the help of the comrades played a role. A fader of taste remains, because without the stable sorry, Götz would probably have ranked two rank and Lawson has become the latest DTM champion of all time.
Finally, the wasted winner summarized his emotions and said that I ve always fought fairly fought like a lion and ultimately champion.
