And they aren't just coming with anyone. The company is going to be joining up with HWA Team, which brought Mercedes-Benz to many championships. So while it will certainly be strange to see the series without M-B or Audi, it sounds like there'll still be plenty of competition. Check out all the details here.

Gonna miss the NA V8 rumbles. Attended a DTM event a few years ago and it was aurally stunning.

I heard they are going with 2L turbos in 2019. Wonder how AM engines will fit in.

It will only be a Aston look-alike bodyshell - with nothing really Aston-related underneath.
More of a PR-thing...like the "Aston-Martin" in F1...

My first thought was "Are you sure about that?" then I remembered we are talking about DTM - LOL!

Yeah, the Astons will have about as much in common with the street cars as they do the F1 cars. Ha ha.

Okay, since the Scottsdale CLK DTM is sold, talk me out of buying another DTM.
