  • Returning on Sunday, Esmee gained her first experience of DTM in wet weather conditions and qualified P23 on the grid

  • She kept calm and collected in a race of attrition - where nine cars retired - to impress with her race pace again as she recorded one of the six fastest laps of the race

  • She took the chequered flag in P11, marking her best finish of the season to date

  • Esmee’s focus now turns to the next round of the championship at the Red Bull Ring, on 3-5 September

 

ESMEE’S RACE REVIEW

“I’ve really enjoyed my first time racing here at the Nürburgring. It’s been another positive weekend and I’m really happy with my performance, particularly in the races. We’re pushing ever closer to the points and I can feel myself improving every weekend. We had a variety of conditions to deal with this weekend and that experience will really help me as we move forwards. I can’t wait to get back out there in Austria in a couple of weeks!”
