Some of motorsport’s finest were in Hungary last week for the Nagy Futam, an annual aeronautical and autonautical exhibition in the streets of the capital city, Budapest.
Nico Muller joined Valtteri Bottas and Gerhard Berger in his Audi RS5 DTM to show the eager fans just how quickly the new racecar can destroy a set of tires.

“It was a lot of fun to be here today,” said Muller. “Meeting the fans, signing autographs and seeing their reaction to the race cars was really great.”
The event took place only a few days ahead of the DTM season opener at the Hockenheimring in Germany, this weekend. Audi will be competing against BMW and Mercedes this weekend to try and earn one of its drivers the championship title this year. A feat it only just missed out on last season.

The new cars are designed to have less downforce and more power to encourage tighter racing and to help better show off driver talent.
And some new tires, please! That was a proper burnout, @nico_mueller! @DTM #DTM #LeagueofPerformance http://pic.twitter.com/1uZ0FbdqlK
