Thomas Preining wrapped up his second DTM title at the season finale in Hockenheim: third place was enough for the Manthey Porsche driver to seal the championship. Curiously, the Austrian had even been running second until the final lap, before he let Manthey team-mate Ricardo Feller past.
"I had a cramp in my foot, that can happen," the new DTM champion tells Motorsport-Total.com, offering the explanation (probably not entirely serious). After all, on Saturday Landgraf driver Lucas Auer had already let his fellow AMG driver Maro Engel past - with exactly the same explanation.
