DTM – Bruno Spengler returns to Oschersleben

After winning at the Lausitzring and the Nürburgring, Bruno Spengler took his third victory of the season at Oschersleben after starting from pole. The Canadian resisted the return of Gary Paffett who was making strides back into first place, ultimately falling less than a second behind the BMW M3 DTM. The winner is 12 points behind the Championship leader, second in the race after starting alongside the winner. Jamie Green drops to third position despite his last place on the podium.
