In the context of the “Audi Sport Finale”, Nico Müller and all his seven colleagues from 2015 have been confirmed for the DTM program of the manufacturer from Ingolstadt. Regarding the drivers allocations to the teams, there is one change that does affect the young Swiss and Adrien Tambay. The two will be swapping teams, meaning Nico will race for “Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline” in 2016, after 2 years with “Audi Sport Team Rosberg”.
“First, I’d like to thank Keke Rosberg, Arno Zensen and the whole “Audi Sport Team Rosberg” for the great collaboration over the last two seasons. It was a pleasure working with them and I’ve surely learned a lot.
Now I’m very much looking forward to starting this new personal chapter in DTM with “Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline”. They have had great success in DTM in the past and I’m proud to join the family. We now have time to gel over the long winter break and start working for a successful 2016 season!”.
