Tomczyk optimistic, 2008 will be even better than 2007

Martin Tomczyk believes he will come back even stronger for his 2008 season after having achieved his best season in DTM this year.

The German finished third in the championship behind his teammates Mattias Ekstrom and Bruno Spengler, and he believes that during the winter, he can make significant progress and improve his performance.

Tomczyk was, during the last race at Hockenheim, only four points behind Ekstrom, leader and winner in 2007 just a few weeks ago. His hopes for the title vanished in the first lap after his collision with Timo Scheider.

« It was my best season so far, and I achieved my goal of finishing in the top three in the championship », said Tomczyk.

« I am happy for Audi and Mattias [Ekstrom]. Our brand has won the title, and next year, it will be my turn to bring it back to them. » He stated, more motivated than ever.

He now believes that his experience will help him in his races and that despite a few mistakes from last season, he will come back much better to have a perfect season.

“I will continue to work in the same way as this year because it was rewarding this season,” he added. “I will keep attacking and I think I have the support of my entire team next season.”
