DTM Roll Cage????
Look at this debris hit Ralph Schumacher's car. And it just buckle. Then watch at about 5:25 how they just pop it back out again.

Pause it at 5:49 as another Mercedes pulls out of the pits. You can see the cage is a foot or more behind the A pillar bodywork. The driver is *way* back too, his head is behind the B pillar.
But yeah, that was odd.

The cage doesn't extend up to the windshield. The driver is in the back seat, no reason to have all that weight up there. Freeze the video at 5:49 and look at the bars through the door. The front bar is about a foot behind the top of the windshield.

I'm sure they are excited about the few thousand people who will actually tune in to watch. Besides, DTM is just NASCARized road racing with CF instead of metal...nothing shared with an actual street car. Sounds like a series that belongs on Speed.
