Schubert BMW driver Rene Rast hit his head just before the second DTM race of the Zandvoort weekend, it has been revealed, turning what looked like a relaxed Sunday drive through the dunes into a feat of strength for his 29th career DTM victory.
"Yes, I have a headache," confirmed the three-time DTM champion in an interview with ran after the race, though he downplayed the situation: "You really have to concentrate and keep your thoughts together, block out the pain. I took two painkillers before the start."
