Thanks to a terrific organizational performance by IMSA and ACO will be on Sunday evening Le Mans sports cars on both sides of the Atlantic at the same time be on the road.

First, the European Le Mans Series. Which has this year secured an appointment at the Hungaroring, a circuit that is known from Formula 1 for its many curves and few straight lines and the resulting Überholproblematik. Sports cars because a little less sensitive than the single-seater premier class, but is likely to narrow layout affect the race decisively, and that when lapping. For all vehicles over to broadcast over the broadcast and that is a long, exhausting evening, and requires much patience. Especially since the Hungaroring is also not a little challenging, yes.

DTM & BTCC: Preview & Zandvoort, Silverstone

On weekends there is a DTM and BTCC again in a double pack. But it is really exciting is probably only in England.

This is due to the power now but not at the DTM alone. The problem is simply that the league seems to have simply been clear. Bruno Spengler is 16 points ahead of Jamie Green and 17 points are up to Paffett and di Resta. Since these are all brand-mate, one will hardly push each other off the track. Best Audi-man Mattias Ekström, who has 19 points behind. However - the season is still six races, there may also happen a lot. But it would be a miracle if no one was going to win the famous Mercedes driver for the title.
