DC Aviation named as new sponsor of DTM team for SSR Performance

DC Aviation, a German business aviation company offering aircraft management, charter services and business jet maintenance from its base at Stuttgart Airport (STR), is the new sponsor of the Munich DTM team for SSR Performance.

During the 2022 DTM racing season, the DC Aviation logo will adorn the green and black Porsche 911 GT3 R of racecar driver Dennis Olsen (starting number 94). DC Aviation will also provide exclusive VIP flights for the SSR Performance team to DTM events. In addition, DC Aviation will be available as an on-site contact for all races of the 2022 DTM season.

Michael Kuhn, CEO of DC Aviation, states: "SSR Performance wants to excel as a team in the DTM. We are very happy to accompany this project with our business jets. DTM is a terrific brand with a long sporting tradition, and we look forward to working with SSR Performance."

This year's DTM season comprises 16 races on eight weekends in five countries and takes drivers to the traditional racing circuits in Imola in Italy and Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium, among others. In addition, the German classics at the Nürburgring in the Eifel region and the Grand Finale at the Hockenheimring are also integral parts of this year's race calendar.

After a guest appearance at the Nürburgring in 2021, SSR Performance from Munich will compete this year for its first full DTM season, representing the Stuttgart-based carmaker Porsche. The season opener in Portimão, Portugal has already been a great success for the new team. After the first race weekend, SSR Performance is in fifth place in the team standings.
