Audi triumphs at Oschersleben as well

Second race, second triumph: the new Audi A4 DTM could not be beaten in its second race either. One week after the 1-2-3 exploit at Hockenheim, Timo Scheider and Martin Tomczyk clinched a commanding 1-2 victory for Audi at the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben. By claiming the maiden victory of his DTM career, Scheider has taken the overall lead as well. Audi Sport Team Rosberg was another team which had a reason to rejoice: Markus Winkelhock in sixth place was the best driver of a car from last year and scored his first DTM points. His team colleague Mike Rockenfeller scored a points finish as well, in seventh place. Mattias Ekström scored a point despite the rear of his car was badly damaged at the start.
