Tom Kristensen will contest his 60th and last DTM race at Hockenheim. The 42-year-old Dane’s sporting track record includes nine pole positions, four race victories, 18 podium places and 212 points. Audi honors the achievements of its “factory” driver, who was part of the DTM driver line-up for six years since the brand’s return to the series in 2004, with special graphics on his car, for all the fans to see. The red-white Audi A4 DTM will be emblazoned with an inscription in German, “Danke Tom für tolle Jahre in der DTM” (Thank you, Tom, for fantastic years in the DTM) and “Held og lykke, Tom” in his Danish native tongue as well as a large portrait picture on the hood.
