DTM – Green criticizes ballast

Still in contention for the title at the penultimate round at the Nürburgring, the British Audi driver will watch his teammates Mortara and Ekström attempt to clinch the crown in the finale DTM of Hockenheim, October 17-18. Jamie Green (33 years old) recently questioned the handicap-weight system introduced at the start of the year, which often gave rise to the ultra domination of a manufacturer over a round. “ If you score no points all year then you can finish the season with a very light car and win races, said the Team Rosberg driver. This is exactly what Tom Blomqvist achieved at Oschersleben and Miguel Molina at the Nürburgring. This situation is very frustrating when you know that I have won races (one at Hockenheim and two at the Lausitzring, at the start of the season. Editor’s note) while all the cars weighed the same. When I see BMW leading the Manufacturers' Championship when they clearly have the worst car, I come to the conclusion that the rules are stupid ».
