About DTM future after Mercedes withdrawal
Jamie Green (AUDI) thinks that tie-up with SGT is only hope for DTM.
He thinks that adoption of NRE was a best choice.

In contrast, Timo Glock (BMW) thinks that DTM must learn from Virgin Australia Supercar Championship series.
Less downforce/more power is right direction.
They can perform overtaking, and do side-by-side battle, which is impossible in current DTM.
Class 1 regulations must learn from VASC style.
Glock must not watch much Super GT, because GT500 even with the DTM rules has side by side action and lots of battling/overtaking.

The Caldarelli move must have opened a spot for guys like Kamui Kobayashi. This gives the Lexus teams a driver shuffle and new pairings.
