Final: Just one Grasser Lamborghini at the DTM in Oschersleben

The DTM field at Oschersleben will comprise just 20 cars. The Grasser Racing Team has now announced that the Lamborghini Temerario GT3, which was involved in an accident at the Norisring, will not be on the starting grid for the event in the Magdeburg Börde. Due to a shortage of spare parts, the team was unable to get the car ready in time.

“We would certainly have found a driver, but it’s down to the delivery of the parts that we can’t repair the car in time. Logistically, it’s not feasible,” Gottfried Grasser told Motorsport-Total today, Friday. Earlier this week, the Austrian had announced that the team was working on preparing the car, but that it was unlikely to race in Saxony-Anhalt.

The team is currently working to ensure the car will be back on the grid at the Nürburgring. “We are in contact with Lamborghini regarding this and consider it a realistic prospect,” said the Austrian.

It is still unclear who will be driving the car at the Nürburgring, but one thing is certain: it will not be Maximilian Paul. The Lamborghini works driver suffered a fractured fibula and tibia in the crash with Kelvin van der Linde and also sustained a spinal injury. Among the Lamborghini works driver line-up, Christian Engelhart, Patric Niederhauser, Franck Perera and Andrea Caldarelli also have DTM experience.
