Описание к видео Marius Roberts goes behind the scenes at the DTM Norisring with BMW and Sheldon van der Linde (2019)

I got to attend my first DTM race this year (2019) as a guest of BMW. As a massive motor racing fan and social racing driver myself, I have always loved the Touring Car format of racing more than single seaters.
What made this event so special for me was that for the first time South Africa had drivers competing in the series, in Jonathan Aberdein and Sheldon van der Linde - the latter racing for BMW. AND it was at the historic Norisring - an unforgiving, short and intense street circuit.

I have known Sheldon for many years - a childhood prodigy from a true racing family - and know just how good he is behind the wheel BUT after spending some time with him in his pit garage, witnessing the pressure that comes with being a works driver competing in the pinnacle of saloon car racing and seeing just how much he has to do in the car in terms of when to use his Push to Pass and Drag Reduction System, changing the brake bias literally for every corner, having the team in his ear talking strategy and all of that while keeping it out the walls and battling 19 of the worlds best drivers! Wow...
