The DTM will return to Britain in 2018

After a five-year absence, DTM touring cars are going to compete again at Brands Hatch. What’s more, the longer GP track will be used in 2018, so drivers should face an even greater challenge.

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested.
