    well this would be very good news If it became reality, BMW have confirmed their intent but obviously not their actual involvement yet. TCT mentioned a possible 'light' program for 2011 before full works in 2012, however seeing no mention of this on the official DTM website i doubt it.

    I hope we have a genuine 3 horse race when they enter and it will all be great fun!
    Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.

    You are right, there is no mention... But perhaps there is a suggestion of it in the DTM Press Release?

    [quote="DTM"]The appearance of the BMW M3 GT2 at endurance races forms another important pillar in the future programme. As is the case this season, in 2011 BMW will contest a variety of races with this car.

    I took that as saying the M3 GT2 will be used in 2011 in various ALMS/LMS/GT/Nurburgring races, rather than DTM.

    Time will tell.
    Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.
