Canadian driver Bruno Spengler (C Class Mercedes) took victory in the opening round of the 2011 DTM season in Hockenheim.

After he secured pole position on Saturday, Spengler kept his advantage by dominating the race on Sunday, to clinch his eighth DTM win, which was his second one in Hockenheim, where he came in first place in October 2006.

Spengler had to face intense pressure from his rivals, especially when the race was yellow flagged ten laps to the end after Tomczyk’s Audi lost a fuel can on the track. The Canadian was able to maintain his lead at the restart, and took the win with an advantage of 3.7 seconds at the finish line.
