The Hockenheim DTM race has been red-flagged following several incidents in the early laps, including a fireball crash for Porsche's Dennis Olsen. Story and video:
After the race resumed at lap 6 following a long safety car period, Thomas Preining and David Schumacher were battling for position when they made contact before braking for Turn 8, their cars veering into the barriers at high speed before bouncing back on track.
The Team Bernhard Porsche of title contender Preining and the Winward Mercedes of Schumacher also picked up heavy damage during the pile up. Prior to the Turn 6 chaos, multiple cars were involved in an incident earlier in the lap that was triggered by Philipp Eng and Nico Muller coming to blows at the opening right-hander.
