Grasser team confirms second Lamborghini entry for Nürburgring DTM

Summary

The Grasser team will enter two Lamborghini Temerario GT3 cars for the upcoming DTM weekend at the Nürburgring. Team principal Gottfried Grasser announced they acquired a new chassis after logistical issues prevented them from repairing Maximilian Paul’s crashed car for Oschersleben. The team now seeks to finalize the driver lineup, which will include a Lamborghini factory driver, though no specific candidate has been confirmed yet. Potential options include Franck Perera, Christian Engelhart, Patric Niederhauser, and Sandy Mitchell. Grasser may also need a replacement driver for the Sachsenring event in September.
