The DTM has undergone a major overhaul this year. After two seasons under Class One regulations, the series has transitioned to a GT3-based formula, while fully-fledged works teams have been replaced by either factory-supported or pure customer teams. Michelin has also become the tyre supplier for the series, replacing previous partner Hankook.

The title is up for grabs as reigning champion Rene Rast moves full-time to Formula E full-time after he clinching his third DTM title last season.  

One of the star drivers on the grid is Red Bull's Alex Albon, taking part in selected races in the championship with the AF Corse team. Formula E driver Nick Cassidy will step in when Albon is required at Grand Prix events.  

There are two female drivers on the grid, with Sophia Floersch racing for Audi squad Abt Sportsline and Esmee Hawkey driving for the T3 Lamborghini outfit.
