The DTM is finally reacting to the pit lane accidents in Zandvoort and the warnings from some teams that we are "reaching a point where someone is going to die" ahead of the highlight at the Norisring this coming weekend. At the Norisring, which alongside Zandvoort features the narrowest pit lane on the DTM calendar, the pit tent will be extended and the gantries will be pulled further apart.
As a result, the distance between the pit stop stations will no longer be ten, but 13 meters. Aside from that, a speed limit of 40 km/h has already been in place in the Norisring pit lane since last year, while a speed limit of 50 km/h is otherwise standard in the DTM.
