Audi confirms 2009 DTM line-up
Audi has now confirmed its line-up for the 2009 DTM season. Not surprisingly they will keep the same drivers as last year.
The four 2009 spec Audi A4 cars will be run by Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline and will be driven by 2008 champion Timo Scheider, 2004 and 2007 champion Mattias Ekström, multiple Le Mans winner Tom Kristensen and by Martin Tomczyk. Abt Sportsline will also be running a 2008 spec Audi A4 for Katherine Legge, who will now be entering her second season in the series and her first season in a one-year-old car as she drove a 2006 spec Audi for Futurecom TME last year.
Oliver Jarvis and Alexandre Premat will be running one-year-old cars for the Audi Sport Team Phoenix team. Both will be entering their second season of DTM racing after both having successful single seater careers behind them.
The two 2008 cars of Audi Sport Team Rosberg will be driven by Mike Rockenfeller and Markus Winkelhock.
Mercedes are yet to announce their complete 2009 line-up.
