Alex Albon to race in DTM at select rounds in 2021

Red Bull reserve driver Alex Albon will race at select rounds of the DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters) championship this year.

The 24-year-old was replaced by Sergio Perez at Red Bull's Formula One team for 2021, but remains contracted to the energy drinks brand as a reserve driver.

Alongside his duties with the F1 team, including simulator work and his position as a reserve for Perez and Max Verstappen, Red Bull announced he will race in the DTM, Germany's top-level touring car series, at select rounds this season.
