It’s not been the easiest of starts to the 2022 DTM season for Mercedes. Only once in the six races so far has an AMG driver claimed a race victory. Just two have more than a single podium to their credit.
Its sole winner thus far and highest-ranking driver in the standings heading to the Norisring this weekend is Lucas Auer (Winward), with Maro Engel (Gruppe M) reaping the rewards of scoring in every race so far close behind. Luca Stolz can’t match that statistic, having scored in only two races to date, but the Haupt Racing Team driver has been one of the marque’s brightest (three-pointed) stars to date with two runner-up finishes at Portimao and the Lausitzring.
