Blomqvist, Da Costa and Wittmann will sport new liveries in the 2016 DTM

By

BMW Motorsport drivers Marco Wittmann, António Félix Da Costa and Tom Blomqvist will have new liveries on their M4 DTMs for the 2016 Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters season. Additionally, Martin Tomczyk will compete with number 100, to mark the manufacturer’s centenary.

Marco Wittmann already showed his new Red Bull livery for 2016 last week in the collective tests held in Monteblanco. The 2014 champion will be partnered at Team RMG by Timo Glock, who will carry the yellow Deutsche Post colour scheme for another season.

Tom Blomqvist and Maxime Martin complete a renewed line up for Team RBM. The Briton will sport the Ice Watch colours, whilst the Belgian will continue with the white and blue Samsung livery.

António Félix Da Costa will carry Blomqvist’s former grey and pink Puma livery in his Team Schnitzer run M4 DTM. The Portuguese’s team mate Martin Tomzcyk will sport the white BMW Performance Parts colours, with a significant change: the former champion will take #100 this season, to mark BMW’s centenary.

Tomczyk said: “There are only two numbers I would swap my 77 for: the number 1 for the DTM champion and the 100 to mark BMW’s centenary. It’s a great honour for me to celebrate the 100th anniversary of BMW with the number 100 on my car, and I will do my best to achieve as many good results as possible with this number.”
