Note that this "news" is almost a year old...

I don't think we should take this all too seriously. Unfortunately.

That seems to be an awesome race car. I always liked that ALfa which had raced in past DTM. It will be nice to see it there. I don´t watch the races due to my TV cable operator doesn´t have sporttv, the channel wich transmits DTM, but i wanna assign it to watch DTM.

The first automobiles of Enzo Ferrari were Alfa Romeo;
They were calls Alfa Romeo “Scuderia Ferrari”

Now says that Alfa Romeo will return to FIA GT with 8C the Competition... if it will come made

(These are alone rumors )
