Preining Slams DTM BoP, Considers Quitting

Former DTM champion Thomas Preining slammed the series' Balance of Performance after finishing ninth in Nuremberg, calling it 'catastrophically shit' and suggesting he may quit.

The Porsche factory driver expressed his frustration following the race, stating: "It is relatively obvious that this has nothing to do with sport. We are catastrophically shit in terms of pace. It's zero fun." Preining, who has won three times at the Norisring, is reportedly considering his future in the series as the BoP continues to hinder his performance.

The Austrian driver's outburst highlights growing concerns among competitors about the effectiveness of the Balance of Performance system in maintaining competitive racing in the DTM series. With his patience reportedly wearing thin, the motorsport community awaits to see if Preining will follow through on his hinted departure from the championship. catcrossgame.com
