Two new DTM splashes of color

After two rather unspectacular design variants of the Audi RS5 DTM appeared in large scale last year, this year it will be much more colorful.

First up is Rene Rast's company car, whose livery has changed from black to red. After winning the DTM title in 2017, he was able to keep the championship open in 2018 until the final race, finishing second overall.

We also have the car of Swiss driver Nico Müller, who has been active in the DTM for several years, in the green "Castrol" livery. He has consistently achieved excellent individual results, but hasn't played a significant role overall in past championships. This year, however, he is currently in second place overall (after the race weekend in Assen), behind the aforementioned Rene Rast.
Together with the recently released new designs of the Mercedes-AMG C63 DTM, there are now 10 different DTM cars on a large scale, and that in less than two years.

In magnetless operation, the Audis always ride a bit smoother than the Mercedes on my test track, even though their weight and dimensions are barely different. This can be used to compensate for driver advantages or disadvantages, ultimately making evenly matched races possible.
