Nicki Thiim was furious after starting 18th in Oschersleben: The Comtoyou Aston Martin driver, who lost the DTM lead by finishing twelfth in Saturday's race, complained that Thomas Preining's threat to quit aimed at the Balance of Performance (BoP) and Marco Wittmann's BoP critism at the Norisring had apparently had an effect.
"Right now I'm letting out the frustration, but we had fun reading all the articles with Mr. Wittmann and Preining - we're quitting and so on," Thiim rants to ran.de. "Maybe I should do that too - quit. Then maybe I'll get 50 kilos taken out here and more power. But yes, sorry - I'm just frustrated right now."
