Spunky: last year he was new to the DTM, he was in an­ old car, & driving on circuits that were new to­ him. 3 reasons he was pish poor. Non of those excuses­ will wear this year. (And also he's a @#$% driver).

He should switch to goKarts again. Maybe he'll do­ well against all the eight year olds..

Hey, he has been in a good car at Williams, and the­ Toyota showed some real promise his first year there­ but he still did incredibly badly, and it didn't­ stop him making pathetic excuses then. So why should­ now be any different?

The issue here is, that for this­ man to keep a drive in DTM after his terrible year last­ year, AND get a better car, the once amazing DTM series­ must really be on it's knees. Which is a criminal­ shame.

marnio you really are a pain in the arse you know that.­ I am sick fed up of reading through the comments on­ here to find your garbage of all this @#$% about­ hamiltons son, this and that, glock and all the rest of­ it. So who really cares what happened, the season is­ OVER, its time for a new season, the old season is­ consigned to the history books. Its time to see what­ these new machines can do, stop leaving your useless­ and annoying comments that as far as I can see just­ piss people off, no one wants to hear what you have to­ say. You don't take part in any of the debates now­ do us all a favour and just shut the @#$% UP!!!!!!!

mediocre driver (comparatively) and a poor sports man.­ Will only be remembered as the brother of ...?

he rode michaels coat tails.....c+ driver at best

In F1, he seemed to have reasonably good speed with a­ good car but when was asked to become the first driver­ and therefore a development driver for the Toyota F1­ team, the feedback he was giving the engineers drove­ the car and the team backwards. Look at the progress­ the team had after Trulli took over.

Nevertheless, if­ the new car they give him is comparable to the other­ top runners he should be able to do reasonably well.

It will be interesting to see how he stacks up against­ the top guys in the best cars. He has no excuses to­ hide behind this year. If he doesn't make it they­ should give the car to Susie Stoddard.

Seriously who cares, he was a lack talent liabilty in­ F1, he may as well be racing go karts of the pedal­ variety.

I guess. We'll just have to wait and see how he­ performs. I suspect that if he doesn't, he'll­ be out of that series also. Then he might try NASCAR.­ All he has to do for that series is go around in a­ circle..............haha

mejask............
Unlike Hakkinen, the German 1 eyed­ Pink Piccolo player has had more rings than a second­ hand jewellers. Admittedly, the rings are usually waist­ height and belonging to Thai or Brazilian (possibly­ Peruvian) rent boys, but that trait runs in his­ family.
The has-been, that never was, is to motor­ racing, what Jeremy Clarkson is to diplomacy.
Norbert­ will be rueing the day that he allowed the 3rd rate­ German behind the wheel of the new Merc.

Of course he did, he needs the job and the money that­ goes with it. He is not as wealthy as his brother as he­ did nothing in F1

nah just more mediocrity

Unlike Hakkinen, 2 championship rings, he has none.­ Can't compare them. Also, to say DTM is the best­ touring car series in the world is his opinion. Well I­ will agree it is one of the best, ALMS and GRAND-AM­ here in the US is just as good. That's my­ opinion........

Looking forward to seing him again at Brands and hope­ he's a bit faster this year.
