Coulthard to DTM Posibility???

Id love to see him back in a car of any sort, even if it was a 2 or 3 year old car that Ralf was in when he entered DTM last year. This way, ill be able to support my coutryman in a strong feild of racing!!!

If it makes him happy and keeps the cash flowing in then why not.

Why not? Because there will be accidents anytime any driver is forced to pass his slow ass and carbon fiber shards by the dump truck full. It wont be pretty, but it will be entertaining, hope SpeedTV shows it, or maybe that new HD theater channel since SpeedTV refuses to switch from NASCAR programming.

In fact he was so slow that he only won 13 races and is only 7th on the all time list of points scored, and 4th on the number of times he's finished in the points, and second only to Rubens for most points without being a WDC. Is that the hallmark of a slow driver?

I'm mainly referring to his last 2 or 3 seasons.

When he was in a slow car. As Ciro said in an earlier thread, the fact any F1 driver can hold a place on the grid does show that they are "fast". Maybe not "fast" compared to other F1 drivers, but certainly faster than the majority of racing drivers.

Yes his car was definatly slower than Mark Webber's... there is no apologizing for for some of the moves DC has made in his last couple of years on the grid.

Him being alot faster than a majority of racing drivers goes without saying.

Still, his F1 career was done.
