Default DTM's version of the 2005 USGP F1 fiasco

http://www.speedtv.com/articles/auto/more/40498/

Does anyone know if this DTM race was covered by SpeedTV?

I don't belive so. Seems like they are broadcast later in the year. Same thing with the European LMS. Probably have to wait for NASCAR to be done.

I think the last time I saw DTM on TV in the states was before Fox bought Speedvision...

Sounds like Audi didn't pull out until all of their championship contenders were sidelined. Sounds like a crazy race, is there a way to find it online?

I could not find it on youtube or google video just now. I'll try later this week though.

The stunt Mika pulled was pure stupid. You just don't take a contender out in the way he did. La Rosa - Ekström incident was a bit more complicated though. Hard to tell. But it seems La Rosa got roughed up by Ekström and went off track and nailed Ekström on the way back.

I guess a lot of hot feelings at the moment since the title isn't decided yet.

DTM has turned into a team sport where each championship contender runs around with a couple of body guards.

Well it turned into a game between Audi and Merc. If one drops out - there goes DTM out the window...

It's available on a few torrent racing sites. I don't dload torrents anymore though...if quite a few people want it, I can dload the torrent and upload the vid to Google Video/YouTube.
