During Saturday’s DTM race at the Sachsenring, Manthey-Porsche driver Thomas Preining collided while battling for the lead, repeating the incident again during Sunday’s race. Preining initially criticized himself after Saturday’s crash, but felt differently following Sunday’s collision with Jack Aitken, explaining his perspective on the event. Despite Preining’s late braking attempt on Sunday, Aitken defended his position, leading to the crash which resulted in a penalty for Preining. Preining expressed disappointment with the penalty and attempted to discuss the incident with Aitken post-race, only to be rebuffed. Race control deemed Preining at fault and imposed a penalty, sparking debate over the fairness of the decision among the drivers and teams involved.
