DTM racing events at Nürburgring

Overview

The DTM racing series held consecutive events at the Nürburgring in August 2026.

On August 14, Matteo Cairoli won the race driving an Emil Frey Ferrari, maintaining a lead of over ten seconds despite hazy conditions caused by smoke from forest fires in the nearby Hürtgenwald region. Only twelve cars completed the race.

Two days later, Marco Wittmann secured his 20th DTM victory for Schubert Motorsport, ending a two-year winless streak. This race featured an early first-corner collision that necessitated a safety car and resulted in the retirement of championship leader Maro Engel. Tom Kalender achieved his first career podium with a second-place finish, while Thomas Preining took third.
