The variety continues

Robert Wickens’ race car from the 2013 DTM season is now the twelfth DTM model of the current Coupe generation Carrera to hit the track. And while DTM models used to be rather drab and monochromatic, today we can enjoy a variety of colors: An orange-and-white color combination has never before been part of the DTM lineup, and the design for sponsor Stihl really stands out. Driving this model car, Robert Wickens achieved his best-ever finish in the DTM overall standings when he finished the 2013 season in fifth place overall. Unfortunately, an error crept into the model’s box labeling; as we all know, the name “Robert” doesn’t start with “W”… Hopefully this will be corrected in the next production run.

As is always the case with design variations, there’s nothing new to say about the technical aspects. The model is still no lightweight, but it is wide and beefy. The Mercedes always stands a good chance against its peers, and in general, all current DTM models are easy-to-handle, stable, and yet by no means slow cars. So for fans of the series, this is a must-buy.
