The 2011 DTM championship season was officially launched over the weekend at the German city of Wiesbaden in front of an estimated crowd of over 120,000 fans.
The full championship entry list was finally released, with a nine-apiece line-up for the battling Mercedes-Benz and Audi marques, who will be joined by BMW next year when it makes its long-awaited return to the series. Nine different nationalities are represented, of which Germany is the largest with six drivers on the grid.
Fans enjoyed driver demonstrations, autograph signings, pit stop simulations and plenty of opportunities to mingle with their favourite drivers.
The full entry list can be viewed below. The season-opening race is at Hockenheim in May.
