René Rast wins the second race of the Red Bull Ring

Text:  René Rast hat das DTM-Sonntagsrennen auf dem Red Bull Ring in Spielberg gewonnen. In einer dramatischen Schlussphase überquerte der Mindener nach 39 Runden vor seinen Audi-Markenkollegen Mike Rockenfeller und Nico Müller die Ziellinie. Für Rast ist es der dritte Sieg im 19. DTM-Rennen. Bereits am Samstag feierten die Ingolstädter in der Steiermark einen Dreifach-Erfolg. Tragische Figur in einem abwechslungsreichen Rennen war Jamie Green. In Führung liegend fiel der Brite zwei Runden vor Schluss mit Getriebeproblemen bis auf Platz 14 zurück. In der DTM-Fahrerwertung führt vor dem großen Finale in Hockenheim weiterhin Mattias Ekström. Der Audi-Pilot wurde hinter Mercedes-AMG-Pilot Gary Paffett Fünfter. Als Sechster sah Marco Wittmann im BMW M4 DTM die Zielflagge. Jamie Green musste eine bittere Pille schlucken: Von der Pole-Position gestartet fuhr der Brite ein souveränes Rennen, führt den 16. Saisonlauf bis Runde 38 an. Mit den 25 Punkten für den Sieg hätte Green in der DTM-Fahrerwertung den Abstand auf Ekström deutlich verkürzt. Doch ein Getriebeproblem an seinem Audi RS 5 DTM verhinderte den Sieg. „Das war wirklich sehr schade. Heute war einfach nicht mein Tag“, sagte er nach dem Rennen. Platz eins erbte Markenkollege Rast, der damit in der Fahrerwertung auf Platz zwei vorrückt. „Wir haben das Rennen kontrolliert, aber das Safetycar hat alles durcheinandergewirbelt. Der Titelkampf ist jetzt offen wie nie, aber da kann noch einiges passieren. In Hockenheim wissen wir mehr“, sagte Rast. Die Safetycar-Phase war nach einer Kollision zwischen Auer und Spengler nötig geworden, als sich der Österreicher nicht schnell genug aus dem Grünstreifen befreien konnte. Nach Platz acht am Samstag blieb der Österreicher bei seinem Heimspiel diesmal ohne Punkte. Beim Restart in Runde 31 konnte die Spitze ihre Positionen behaupten, großer Verlierer...
