Rene Rast shared his intense battle with Jack Aitken at the second DTM race at Lausitzring, where he ultimately lost the thrilling duel for victory. Rast managed to undercut Aitken during the pitstops but couldn’t hold off Aitken’s pressure on the penultimate lap due to worn-out tires from the previous day’s race. Aitken’s strong tire management was praised by Emil Frey Racing’s technical director, Juerg Flach, as a decisive factor in his triumph. Aitken’s strategic driving and overtaking move on Rast’s struggling car impressed many, marking a nail-biting finish to the race. Despite Rast’s efforts to defend his position, Aitken’s grip and speed allowed him to secure the win, with just a hair’s breadth separating him and Rast at the finish line. This intense and fair battle among the drivers showcased thrilling racing moments and sportsmanship on the track, making it a memorable event at Lausitzring.
