The field looks pretty hot in the DTM with plenty of ex-F1 drivers in the line up.

How will Thommo fare in the Audi and will he be as quick as Aiello. I've always felt that in the the BTCC JT was quick but inconsistent
which has meant that he has never been able to put a championship bid together.

In the DTM the cars are RWD with plenty of power - how will he shape up against the rest

Lets hear you views .......

As Colin Blair is discovering, there is a very different technique between driving Rear and Front wheel drive cars.

I suspect it will take a couple of races for him to acclimatise to the cars, whereas Aiello will have already had plenty of testing time.

Also I don't think he knows the tracks, which most of the other drivers do, so it's going to be really tough going to start with.

I agree with the above. Also the ABT Audi will be no way as quick as the works Mercedes Benz cars

Go on JT make us proud!
