DTM: Rast secures 2020 DTM title with decisive win in season finale
Rene Rast clinched the 2020 DTM title with a commanding victory in the season finale at Hockenheim ahead of championship rival Nico Muller.
With a 16-point advantage heading into Sunday’s title decider, Rast only needed a top five result to clinch a third DTM crown in four years – irrespectively of where Muller finished in the race.
But Rast left no doubt, he dominated the proceedings on his way to a seventh victory of the season, eventually winning the championship from Muller by 23 points.
