Back when I was a kid, I remember watching the DTM Championship and wondering how it would feel like just sitting inside a BMW car during a race. When a couple of seconds of onboard action eventually made it to the screen, there was no greater joy.
Nowadays, thanks to the remarkable new findings in technology we can feast our eyes on such videos whenever we want to, and in high definition too! So, no more shade, pixelated on-board videos for us from now on!
The Spielberg race, that took place this weekend was a pretty good one for BMW, finishing on all 3 steps of the podium. However, one driver was most unlucky. We're talking about Martin Tomczyk that had to retire from the race after just 30 laps.
The reason? Constant battles with Mercedes-Benz's driver Roberto Merhi that not only damaged his car but eventually spun him off the track. The footage below even shows some contact between Martin and another Mercedes-Benz driver, Gary Paffett. It seems like Merc drivers really have a thing for BMWs.
