DTM: Timo Scheider is 2009 DTM champion

A second place at the season finale at the Hockenheimring in Baden-Wuerttemberg behind his only rival for the title, Gary Paffett (Mercedes), sufficed for Timo Scheider to repeat his DTM triumph from 2008. After Bernd Schneider (2000/2001), the German is only the second driver in DTM history to have defended the title. Scheider’s Audi A4 DTM is fitted with a racing clutch from ZF Sachs Race Engineering. In the final standings, after the tenth and final round of the season, Scheider has a lead of 5 points over Paffett and 19 over Paffett’s brand colleague Paul Di Resta.

Other drivers using technology from ZF Sachs Race Engineering to score point successes at Hockenheim in front of 155,000 spectators (throughout the weekend) were Alex Prémat (4th place/Audi), Jamie Green (5th/Mercedes-Benz), Oliver Jarvis (6th/Audi) and Markus Winkelhock (8th/Audi). The title of the best driver of a year-old car was clinched with assistance by ZF Sachs as well. The Briton Jamie Green was the front runner in this group. Like all 2008-spec AMG Mercedes-C-Class cars, Green’s vehicle is equipped with a clutch from Schweinfurt.
