Mercedes-AMG wrap up the win in the team and constructors‘ classification ahead of time
Press release available only in original language.
Title contenders in battle for the podium: #garypaffett shortens gap on team-mate #pauldiresta to four points.
- Mercedes-AMG win the constructors’ championship before season has ended – for the seventh time in the brand’s 30-years of the DTM
- Victory in the team classification is also assured ahead of the season finale: Only one of the three Mercedes-AMG Motorsport #DTM Teams can still win the championship at Hockenheim
- Gary Paffett (Mercedes-AMG Motorsport PETRONAS) finishes third, taking his third podium in #spielberg, his ninth of the season and 47th of his #DTM career
- Paul Di Resta (Mercedes-AMG Motorsport REMUS) booked fourth place right behind him
- Title fight in the drivers’ standings still undecided ahead of the finale: Paul (229 points) has a four-point lead on Gary (225 points)
- Pascal Wehrlein (Mercedes-AMG Motorsport PETRONAS) was sixth, Edoardo Mortara (SILBERPFEIL Energy Mercedes-AMG Motorsport) tenth
- Gary Paffett: “It’s going to be a fantastic fight in the season finale at Hockenheim. There are now only four points separating me and Paul, and René (Rast) is also getting ever closer. That’s excellent for the DTM”
- Ulrich Fritz: “We cannot be satisfied with today’s result. It's extremely disappointing when you start with three cars in the Top Four and then only secure one podium in the end”
Spielberg: The first title of this 2018 #DTM season has already been won. Mercedes-AMG Motorsport head home from #spielberg as the new champions in the constructors’ classification. However, the fight for the drivers’ championship is still open before the season finale at Hockenheim.
