DTM: Gotz wins Race 2 at Eurospeedway

Maximilian Gotz made it two wins for Mercedes in the second round of the 2021 DTM season at the Lausitzring but he was gifted the win when Audi driver Kelvin van der Linde dropped out of the lead with technical problems.

Abt Sportsline’s van der Linde was on course to become the first repeat winner of the year having taken over the lead during the mandatory round of pitstops. But a sudden stoppage cost him the lead, promoting HRT Mercedes of Gotz to the top spot.
