Preining explains letting Feller pass in DTM finale

Thomas Preining allowed teammate Ricardo Feller to pass him on the final lap of the DTM season finale at Hockenheim on October 13, while running in second place. Preining humorously attributed this decision to a cramp in his foot. Although he was comfortably leading the championship, the move helped Feller secure second place, earning him 20 points. Preining had already clinched the title prior to this final race, finishing third was enough for the Manthey Porsche driver to secure his second DTM title. With both drivers working together, they celebrated a successful end to the season despite team orders being banned since 2022.
