I really would be surprised if Engel ends up in DTM. It's not impossible but I would find it hard to believe that Merc would pull the rug out from under HRT who are one of their top customer teams. Since Gounon, Marciello and Juncadella are with Akka ASP in GTWC that leaves just Buhk, Gotz, Engel and Stolz to allocate to any additional programs. HRT has already said they are running a full season pro entry in sprint and endurance. I don't think there is any reason to believe that won't be Engel and Stolz as it has been for the past 4 years. Buhk and Gotz could very well both end up in DTM but I would consider Engel to be unlikely (also he did test with HRT in Barcelona recently).
