Team changes

  • GT World Challenge Europe regulars Attempto Racing joined the DTM full-time, running a single Audi R8 LMS Evo II car.[6]
  • Rowe Racing, which ran two BMW M6 GT3 cars full-time in 2021, left the DTM in order to concentrate on endurance racing.[34]
  • Schubert Motorsport joined the series full-time by fielding two BMW M4 GT3 cars. Walkenhorst Motorsport also fielded two BMW M4 GT3 cars full-time in 2022, after racing with a single BMW M6 GT3 car in 2021.[8]
  • GRT Grasser Racing Team joined the series full-time by fielding a total of four Lamborghini Huracán GT3 Evo cars.[17] The Austrian team is factory-backed by Lamborghini.[35]
  • T3 Motorsport were initially set not to be factory-backed by Lamborghini, after racing two Huracán GT3 Evo cars full-time in 2021, but the decision was reversed shortly before the start of the season.[36][37] The team confirmed the retainment of their 2021 driver Esmee Hawkey and the signing of Nicki Thiim.[38][39][23]
  • JP Motorsport did not return to the series in 2022, after making guest appearances at three rounds in 2021 by fielding a single McLaren 720S GT3 car.[40]
  • Mercedes-AMG Team GetSpeed left the series after running a single-car effort for Arjun Maini in 2021.[41]
  • Timo Bernhard's KÜS Team Bernhard team joined the DTM full-time, entering a single Porsche 911 GT3 R car.[30]
  • SSR Performance joined the series full-time by fielding two Porsche 911 GT3 R cars, after making a guest appearance with a single car at the Nürburgring round in 2021.[31]

Driver changes

Rule changes

Sporting

  • One championship point will be awarded for the fastest race lap.[42]
  • Team orders were completely outlawed in the wake of the 2021 season finale controversy at the Norisring.[43] Teams and drivers who influence the race via team orders might be excluded from the championship.[44]
  • Introduction of "full-course yellow" (FCY) to replace safety car interventions when appropriate. Restarts will be done two-abreast, similar to the series' race and safety car restarts.[45]
  • The mandatory pit stop can now be made while the safety car is deployed.[42]
  • The race start procedure has been revised: the race gets underway with a starting light at the hands of the race director. Previously, the pole-sitter could decide when to go full-throttle. The starting formation can now be left as soon as the starting light releases the field.[46][44]
  • Pit stop procedures have been modified: a maximum of two mechanics on each side of the car have to change the rear wheels first before the change at the front axle can begin. Mandatory pit stops can not be served prior to minute 10 or after minute 40 of the race.[44]

Calendar changes

  • Spa-Francorchamps returns to the DTM calendar after a one-year hiatus while Portimão and Imola will make their DTM débuts. On the opposite side, the rounds at Zolder, Assen and Monza were ousted from the calendar.
  • The Norisring round will return to its traditional spot in early July, after the circuit hosted the season finale for the first time in 2021. On the other hand, the Hockenheimring round will retain its traditional spot in early October and return to being the final round of the season.[47]
