Track description by René Rast
“I have good and bad memories of the Lausitzring: I achieved my first DTM podium there in 2017, and last year I had a huge crash during the first race on Saturday and had to watch the second race from the sidelines. Nevertheless, the Lausitzring is a wonderful venue and the race track offers everything you need as a racing driver: slow corners, fast corners and a long straight that’s great for overtaking with DRS. That’s why the races at the Lausitzring are usually really good. From the grandstand, spectators can see almost the entire race track.”
