Default DTM rules - question

So they get 63 uses of DRS? Anytime anywhere? No zones like f1? Pit boss tells them how many the guy in front/back has?

How does the wing open? Just angle of attack? Got a picture?

I like DTM.

Thank you very much Racingswh. I wish the wing did not "automatically" go back to max downforce by those "nanny" controls. Driver error is part of racing (Nico, Barcelona)

Att Uverse has coverage (bless them - cable) in So Cal. Whatever level I pay for - I forget - it's not the max.



Those cars so so f*&^%$# awesome.

DTM is on CBS Sports Network, I believe which is available on DirecTV. Not sure what package you need for it. I actually find DirecTV one of the best for racing as it has FoxSports 1 and 2, NBC Sports, and CBS Sports, which are the majority of non-network racing channels in the US. As noted, Motortrend On Demand is a pretty cool deal though.

yep. i have basic cable and get DTM on CBS sports network, and several other race series.

sadly though it is in standard def and has a black box on all 4 sides, not HD. and that really drives me crazy.
