DTM Testing is out in full force on its 3rd day at the Hungaroring. These German V8 brutes are running the track until Thursday. Luckily, I live close to Hungaries national circuit and was able to be out there in a jiff! Here are some photos I took on my Sony Cyber-Shot. (LOL) Fantastic for taking pictures of racecars flying-by in the blink of an eye. -.-But I am up-to-date on how to take pictures even with a not so great camera. I was there for about 5 hours and even had time to time the cars lapping the track. Any way I attached some of my good pictures and will try to attach some videos in the comments. I have attached lap times of the cars which are official from DTM website.

What is going on with the Mercedes. I'm no aero expert, but I don't see how this can work for them.

Me neither, But that's how 2 of them were running. Here is another angle

Maybe that angle gives zero downforce? If they were trying to figure out mechanical grip it would make sense to run the downforce as low as they could get it.
