Lucas Auer to sport pink livery in 2015 DTM

Newcomer Lucas Auer is going to run pink colours on his Mercedes in the 2015 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters season.

As the 2015 Media Day and final official pre season testing starts in Oschersleben today, new details about the forthcoming season start to emerge.

Starting in the 2015 season, the BWT Group will be sponsoring the three-pointed star manufacturer in the DTM. DTM newcomer Lucas Auer will be sporting the BWT livery on his car. The eye-catching bright pink BWT Mercedes-AMG C63 DTM is set to make its track debut in the DTM official tests to be held at Oschersleben from the 14th to the 16th of April.

Fritz Ulrich, Mercedes-AMG DTM Team Principal: “The DTM is the perfect platform for BWT to showcase its technology to a wider audience. The bright colours of the BWT Mercedes-AMG C63 DTM driven by Lucas Auer will certainly be turning the heads of DTM fans this season.”

Last time the DTM had a pink car on the grid was back in 2012, with the TV Spielfilm livery on Susie Wolff’s Mercedes C-Coupé DTM from Persson Motorsport.
