Dick Brave rocks the ‘DTM Powerstage presented by Pirelli’

On Saturday evening, the DTM Powerstage will become a huge open-air stage. Dick Brave, the master of modern rock ’n’ roll, will get the crowd going with his band. Dick Brave had already set the mood at the Dekra Lausitzring and remarked afterwards: “Motorsport and music go well together. Both have plenty of fire and power.” The live spectacle will be opened by The Stereolines, one of Germany’s most exciting new bands. The four musicians from Stuttgart won the German Rock & Pop Award last year and captivate audiences with catchy melodies, pulsating beats and distinctive basslines. Entry to the ‘DTM Powerstage presented by Pirelli’ is free for all DTM ticket holders.
