DTM 2012 Coupe

A quick look at the C Coupe that will race next year in DTM. THE BMW M3 will return to the series to take on Audi which won the team and driver championships. We'll get them next year. This is a great series.

I think that the DTM will start doing races here in US, on 2013. Can someone confirm that? It would be awesome!

I did see this discussed as a strong possibility during an AMG Private Lounge chat session a while back. Unofficial, but fingers crossed because this is a great series. Great cars and a nice mix of drivers-- with future and former F1 drivers. F1 rookie Paul di Resta won the DTM championship for Merc in 2010.
