By

Ralf Schumacher is going to continue racing for Mercedes in the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters 2010.
“It’s great fun to race in the DTM; one of the most important reasons for this is the perfect cooperation with Mercedes-Benz and the HWA team. Therefore, I look forward to a third year in this fantastic championship,” said Schumacher.

Schumacher is going to continue in the HWA team this year and is happy to be racing for the Mercedes family with his brother, Michael Schumacher.

“In 2010, the fans will experience a so far unique combination – my brother Michael in Formula 1 and me in the DTM, and both we will race for Mercedes-Benz – this will be an exciting motor sport season,” said Schumacher.

Vice president of Mercedes Motorsport Norbert Haug is confident that Schumacher is going to improve this season.

“After the necessary ‘learning time‘ everybody needs in the DTM, he will further improve in sporting terms,” said Haug.
