There are some new rumours about the Aston Martin entry into DTM...or should I rather say the Red Bull entry? According to Motorsport.com, the Aston Martin DTM car will run with a Honda engine - which somewhat makes sense, given that Red Bull will run Honda engines in 2019. In addition, the Red Bull-Aston Martin team will use parts from the HWA team. So I wonder why Red Bull and Aston won't just enter in 2019 already. Sure, entering DTM takes some time for preparations. But for 2019, they could use some HWA staff, while recruiting their own staff for 2020. Given that they basically build a car out of available components, they may as well appear next year.
The same article also speculates about Emil Frey Racing entering in 2020 with Lexus. But come on, this can't be serious.
