The 30-year-old whose A4 DTM is fitted with a clutch from ZF Sachs Race Engineering now has a score of 43 points and a five-point advantage over his Abt Sportsline team colleague Mattias Ekström, who finished fifth on the tradition-steeped British circuit. Audi driver Martin Tomczyk in third place again mounted the podium after winning the preceding race at the Nürburgring. Mike Rockenfeller, racing with a ZF Sachs clutch like all Audi drivers, finished the seventh DTM round of the season in seventh place as the best driver of a year-old car.
