MUNICH, Germany — DTM has released its race dates for the upcoming season and is relying on tried and tested venues.
Drivers, teams and fans can look forward to 16 championship races at eight events. The first two DTM victories will be at stake from April 25-27 next year in the Motorsport Arena Oschersleben. The season finale will traditionally take place at the Hockenheimring Baden-Württemberg (Oct. 3-5).
All DTM races air LIVE on SPEED SPORT 1.
In addition to six race weekends in Germany, DTM will also travel to the Netherlands and Austria.
At A Glance
After the start of the season in Oschersleben, DTM stars will be heading to the Dekra Lausitzring (May 23-25). On the Dutch North Sea coast, the first foreign stop of the year will be at the Circuit Zandvoort on June 6-8. After that, DTM will be transformed into Germany’s fastest city traffic: the Norisring (July 4-6) in Nuremberg, the only street circuit in Germany, will be one of the highlights of the calendar.
The Nürburgring (Aug. 8-10) marks the start of the second half of the season, in which all remaining events will be held every two or three weeks. The Sachsenring (Aug. 22-24) is another stop on traditional German tracks, before the Austrian mountain landscape becomes the stage for DTM from Sept. 12-14 at the Red Bull Ring.
Fans will experience the showdown of the 2025 season in Hockenheim (Oct. 3-5), with the finale taking place 14 days earlier next year than in the past two years.
“The fans’ enthusiasm for the DTM is high, which shows that we are on the right track with our calendar design,” said ADAC Motorsport Director Thomas Voss. “In recent months, we have intensively examined exciting venues for the DTM.
“However, since we have seen a significant increase in visitor numbers at all events in Germany this year, we will stick to the tried and tested venues for the 2025 season.”
The finale of the season, with the title decision in Hockenheim, is still pending. On Oct. 18-20, Mirko Bortolotti (Lamborghini), Kelvin van der Linde (Audi) and Maro Engel (Mercedes-AMG) will fight in a three-way battle for the title in the DTM’s anniversary season.
