Walking home with mixed feelings. Both races in the points with P8 & P4 but obviously aimed and hoped for more! Congrats to @schubert_motorsport to an impressive double win by @renerast & @sheldonvanderlinde 👏

WHAT WAS THE MOST MEMORABLE MOMENT IN YOUR MOTORSPORT CAREER?
I have several highlights here:
- The most memorable moment was, of course, becoming the DTM Champion 2014
- DTM Champion 2016 because it was a confirmation that I had done it again
- My most emotional victory was certainly winning the home race at the Norisring in 2018
- Winning the kick-off race of the class-1-era at Hockenheim in 2019 together with BMW and Schaeffler was also a special event
