This weekend (9-11 September), Spa-Francorchamps is the third to last fixture of the 2022 DTM season that has been really intense so far, the battle for the title is notably tightening up. As the DTM championship leader (110 points), Sheldon van der Linde doesn’t want to hear about that at present. “I am not focused on the championship, I simply want to score as many points as possible,” the 23-year-old South African from the Schubert Motorsport BMW team stated in the usual DTM press conference. René Rast (GER), who with the ABT Audi dropped back to fourth in the standings with 81 points behind Mirko Bortolotti (ITA, 89) with the GRT Lamborghini and Lucas Auer (AUT, 85) with the WINWARD Mercedes-AMG at Nürburgring most recently, on the other hand, wants to do everything to keep his chances of winning the title alive. “The goal is to score many points and to keep all the title rivals at bay.”

They are not just famous, they are a real challenge for man and machine first and foremost. When DTM is staging the sixth round of its season in Belgium this weekend (9-11 September), the DTM stars are under pressure, too. Spa-Francorchamps is a circuit at which driving abilities and a healthy dose of courage count more than at most other race tracks. At 7.004 kilometres, the Ardennes roller coaster is also the longest track on the DTM calendar on which no other circuit has a difference in altitude of one hundred metres either.
