2016 Deutscher Tourenwagen Cup

The 2016 Deutscher Tourenwagen Cup was the twenty-second season of the Deutscher Tourenwagen Cup, the German championship for touring cars, and the first under its current name after dropping the ADAC name. For this season a new category - Superproduction - was introduced, replacing Division 1, while Divisions 2 and 3 were reclassified as Production 1 and Production 2 respectively. Despite not using the ADAC name the series supported the ADAC GT Masters and its support series. The calendar consisted of eight separate race weekends with two races each, spread over eight different tracks.[1]
