BMW driver Sheldon van der Linde doesn’t see any downsides to a smaller DTM grid in 2024, as he believes the quality of the field has been kept intact this year.
Only 20 cars are entered for the full 2024 DTM season, marking the fewest entries seen in the championship since it first switched to GT3 regulations in 2021. High operating costs, reduced manufacturer support and economic conditions at large have been cited as key reasons behind the decline in participation from last year, when 28 drivers took part in the series.
Such was the extent of damage from the carnage that six drivers were forced to miss the final race of the year, with David Schumacher also sustaining a fracture to his lumbar vertebra. Even last year, as the ADAC went back on the controversial standing restarts rule that was introduced by previous owner ITR, the DTM didn’t exactly have a season free of major incidents.
