Car info: 1988 Cars

The first time the DTM raced on the famous Nordschleife, it all went wrong for Niedzwiedz; at Tiergarten, the car hit (probably after a puncture) the armco with 260 kph and travelled another 200 meters flying through the air and rolling before coming to a standstill. Miraculously, he suffered only a broken arm and some bruises.
So Oestreich became third behind the leaders Hahne and Asch. In race 2, Oestreich was second which propelled him to a joint first in the championship standings, together with Ludwig who claimed fourth and fifth in the races. But Hahne was the man of the weekend; he gambled on soft tires and it paid off: he won both races.
