Overview
- DTM starts its 2026 campaign at Spielberg from Friday to Sunday, April 24–26, with the first two races of the 16‑race season at Austria’s Red Bull Ring.
- Fans in Germany can watch both races live on ProSieben free TV, while Joyn streams the full weekends with free practice, qualifying, and races; in Austria, ServusTV airs the races on TV and online.
- ADAC confirmed a 21‑car grid from eight manufacturers for 2026, with established names like Marco Wittmann and Timo Glock joined by rookie Finn Wiebelhaus.
- Formula 1’s 2026 rules are now active, raising the hybrid’s electric output to about half of total power, switching to fully sustainable fuel, and replacing DRS with active aerodynamics that change wing angles for passing.
- This F1 season opened in Melbourne on March 6–8, with Saudi Arabia and Bahrain later canceled due to the war in Iran, and Sky retaining exclusive live rights in Germany for all sessions and races.
