Molina denies Green Hockenheim pole

Miguel Molina denied Jamie Green a first DTM pole for five years with a storming effort to take the top spot for this weekend's season finale at Hockenheim.

Menu tops opening Suzuka practice

Alain Menu topped the opening practice session at Suzuka, edging out the Polestar Volvo of Robert Dahlgren in the final minutes.
