The DTM is becoming more colourful and more transparent for the fans: from this weekend’s round at Oschersleben, DTM tyre partner Hankook has also added a coloured identification to the rain tyres. With immediate effect, a blue Hankook logo on the sidewalls makes it easier for spectators on the grandstands and in front of the TV screens to identify whether drivers are using the treaded rain tyres in case of bad weather conditions.
Thus, the third type of tyres is getting its own colour. A large yellow logo on the side indicates when the DTM cars from Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are running on the option tyre that was introduced for the start of this season. For the standard tyre, Ventus Race, the logo is white.
