DTM Hockenheim: Porsche’s Preining closes in on title with Saturday win
Preining had a flawless performance, starting from pole position and leading every lap to earn a maximum of 28 points. His closest competitor, Bortolotti, finished seventh but managed to overtake van der Linde in the final moments of the race to keep the championship battle alive for the last race of the season. Preining now holds a 27-point lead in the standings, giving him the opportunity to secure the title even during qualifying if Bortolotti fails to earn bonus points. Preining’s teammate, Olsen, finished second, securing the team title for Manthey EMA. Engelhart, who returned to DTM with Grasser, finished third. Feller, Aitken, and van der Linde rounded out the top six, with only Stolz from HRT scoring points outside of this group.
