2016 DTM Calendar
The DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters) is a prestigious European-based racing series that has evolved from its traditional touring car roots into one of the world's most competitive platforms for GT3-spec machinery. Managed by the ADAC, the championship features high-performance sports cars from elite manufacturers such as Mercedes-AMG, BMW, Audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche, driven by a world-class field of professional racers. Distinct from many other GT series, DTM emphasizes a sprint-race format with one driver per car, incorporating mandatory performance pit stops that highlight both individual speed and team precision. With its high-profile events primarily held at legendary German and European circuits, DTM combines professional factory-supported racing with a fan-centric atmosphere, maintaining its reputation as a pinnacle of grand touring competition.
